PHOTOGRAPHER EDUCATION

 

 

SHARING WHAT I'VE LEARNED OVER A 15+ YEAR CAREER AS A PHOTOGRAPHER


I’ve spent years figuring out how to create photography experiences that people want to book, talk about, and come back to.

Now I’m sharing the ideas, systems, and lessons behind them.

 

 

PHOTOGRAPHER TO PHOTOGRAPHER

 

I never set out to become an educator.


I was just trying to build a photography business that felt like me.


Over the years, that meant experimenting, creating signature experiences, figuring out what worked, learning from what absolutely did not, and paying attention to the things that made clients come back.


Surf Santa was one of those ideas.


What started as a fun idea for my own family grew into an annual event, a local tradition, a booking frenzy, and eventually a viral sensation.


And somewhere along the way, I realized: I have learned a lot that other photographers could use.


So I’m starting to share it.

THE SIGNATURE SANTA COURSE

You don't need another Santa Mini!! You need an experience.


I have created a 40 page photographer’s playbook based on five years of building Surf Santa to help you create the perfect Santa experience that is uniquely yours and resonates in your area!


Inside, I break down the actual thinking behind the event:


The concept

How to find an idea that feels unexpected, memorable and uniquely yours.


The experience

How to build everything around the photograph, from your Santa and set to the client experience.


The logistics

What happens behind the scenes to actually pull it off.


The business

How to think about pricing, costs, marketing and profitability.


The growth

How an event evolves from a brand new idea into something families come back to every year.


The lessons

What worked, what didn't, what surprised me and what I would do differently.
