Don't delete - editors note style

I equip purpose-driven entrepreneurs and photographers to turn their story into connection—and their gifts into lasting impact.

hey friends, i'm katelyn

If you’ve ever walked into a photo session and silently panicked about where to shoot… If you’ve ever crossed your fingers hoping golden hour would save you… If you’ve ever opened Lightroom thinking, “I don’t even know how to fix this lighting…”

You are not alone!!

And you do not need a new camera or a new $2,000 lens to fix it!

 

As a wedding and portrait photographer for over 15 years, I’ve seen one thing trip up photographers at every level: lighting.

The truth is:

You don’t need perfect weather or epic locations to create beautiful photos. 

You need to know how to see and use the light you’ve been given.

And that’s exactly what I’m teaching inside my brand new FREE live class:

The Secrets to Photos You’re Proud Of.

 

Why Lighting is the Game-Changer (Not Your Gear)

So many photographers believe that if they just had better gear, their photos would finally look the way they want.

But what I’ve learned after 15+ years of photographing weddings in parking lots, backyards, church basements, and less-than-picturesque locations is that gear is only part of the equation.

Just LOOK at the magic that was waiting in those settings…

 

Lighting is what transforms your photos.

When you know how to find great light:

  • Your editing becomes faster and easier.
  • Your confidence shows up on every shoot.
  • Your photos look consistent, no matter where you’re shooting.

And your clients start raving about the work you deliver.

What You’ll Learn in the Free Lighting Class

In this completely free live class, I’m pulling back the curtain on my process and teaching you:

  • How I evaluate light in seconds, before I ever click the shutter!
  • The 3-part system I use to choose light, location, and layout at every session
  • Why most editing frustrations are actually lighting problems (and how to fix them before you even start shooting)
  • Simple mindset shifts that will help you stop second-guessing and start creating with confidence

Who This Class Is For

Whether you’re a brand new photographer or you’ve been shooting for years but still feel like lighting is a guessing game… this class is for you!!

If you’ve ever thought:

  • “Where should I put my clients in this light?”
  • “Why don’t my photos look the way I imagined?”
  • “Why do my edits take me so long?”
  • “What am I missing that other photographers seem to understand?”

You are in the right place.
