My beautiful friends, how wonderful it is to have you in this corner of the web. I am thrilled you have chosen me as your mentor for this next adventure in your creative process. My desire is to share all of the knowledge I have acquired over the years to get those creative juices flowing! In four enriching, fun, and stimulating sessions we will go over the fundamentals to
creating a proper photograph through some self exploratory exercises. Together, I wish to awaken that fire that lights you up inside. Guide you to use your own inspiring elements to have a vision, apply it, and create your own little visual realities. I believe photography is not a camera; it is your eyes and senses. Every step of the way, I will help you to understand what it is for you to create with purpose and awareness!

You are allowed to make mistakes. You are allowed to ask questions. You are allowed to fail. That, my friends, is how you grow and learn. I do not want to teach you how to create my way! No! I would like to help you pave your own creative path. My purpose is to guide you in building a strong foundation and stir you into using your own creativity, inspiration, and life experiences in your photographs. It would be an honor to share this adventure with you! * For investment contact me below.

FAQ
Who is this mentorship for?
Please note, you must be 16 years of age or older. Must own a camera (smartphone, point and shoot, or DSLR), have a passion for photography/creativity, be open-minded, be dedicated, at least have minimal knowledge of camera usage, and want to expand your skills. You do not have to be a professional photographer!
why would I want to take this mentorship?
Well, because it will be an enriching, fun, and exciting adventure! You are fervently wanting to genuinely connect with your audience by instilling MOMENTS and EXPERIENCES! Learn how to use your DSLR (Canon) or smartphone (iPhone) to take beautiful photos of your every day (guest at a wedding, my children, my friend, my pets, just my everyday). You want to increase the quality of the photos on your social media. Maybe you are a traveler and want to capture more engaging photographs of nature and landscapes. You want to take on a new hobby that is stress free and learn the basics of photography. You are looking to get into fashion and portrait photography and desire to heighten your skills.
what do I need for this mentorship?
These mentoring sessions are designed for people with very minimal technical skills. If you have intermediate or advanced knowledge, you are also welcome! You will need your own smartphone, point and shoot, or DSLR, memory cards, and laptop to access the course material. Also, do not forget to bring your smile and willingness to learn and work!
How long is this mentoring and what will I be learning?
The mentoring sessions will take place over a 2 month period to give you enough time for everything. We will meet four times. In our first 3 sessions we will cover the fundamentals of basic photography and the technical aspect of using a camera or camera phone. We will have plenty of time to put all of the material to practice by shooting, which is the most exciting part! Some topics we will cover are: Composition, Lighting, Message, DSLR Manual Mode (aperture, shutter speed, ISO), Basic Smartphone Photography, and most importantly where to find your own inspiration for creation! On our fourth session you will present to me a final series of your choice!
Why are you providing this mentorship in 4 sessions?
To truly take a great photograph, you must observe, train your eyes, and be aware of your surroundings. I want to give you the boost you need to start observing, looking, and seeing in a more heightened and sensitized way so that when you put your camera in hand, the photo is already there for you. In sharing as much information as I can, we can foster a space for you to ask as many questions as possible, shoot, and be yourself without any time constraints. The learning creative process does not happen over night, it requires patience, dedication, freedom, and a lot of FUN! I am only honored to be able to grant you this opportunity to find yourself and start to share your creative voice with the world!
