TANGIBLE ADVICE & INSIGHT

ACCESS TO AN INDUSTRY PROFESSIONAL

UNLOCKING YOUR POTENTIAL TANGIBLE ADVICE & INSIGHT ACCESS TO AN INDUSTRY PROFESSIONAL

Do you feel overwhelmed by all the things you need to do IN YOUR FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY JOURNEY and don't know where to start?

Do you have limiting mindset beliefs that often (okay - always) get in the way of running your business and/OR growing your skills?

Do you feel creatively ‘blocked’? Stuck in a rut with your FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY?

ENTER: THE COACH

Learn to create beautiful food photography good enough to eat; build your portfolio; touch on restaurant photography & storytelling; expel those limiting beliefs and self-doubt; develop a shooting workflow; work on your client communication; continue to learn about food photography in different ways; and so much more!

These sessions are completely ‘bespoke’ and tailored to YOU!

I can't even begin to explain how valuable having someone else in your corner is. Since the start of my food photography career i have always had coaches in one capacity or another. There is absolutely no way i would be where i am already without the guidance & mentorship of those amazing people.

Having someone who knows the industry, someone that provides a safe space to learn, create, and share all the wins and failures?

Priceless

but Does it fit you?

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

  • You want to be intentional with your shoots and create amazing food & beverage images!

  • You need some guidance on your workflow & process!

  • You’re having trouble with inspiration and burnout!

  • You’re willing to learn, make space for your growth, and do the work!

  • You want some accountability and to be pushed outside of your comfort zone!

WHat students are saying

“I found the most valuable part of the session, having access to an industry professional (in my home country) and being able to gain insights on our professions way of doing business and status quo. This has enabled me to make subsequent decisions in my business so I can be competitive in the industry.

Sally is a working photographer with a wealth of experience in the industry. I really enjoyed the session and Sally made me feel like I was talking with a friend, with the added benefit of having valuable insights from a professional photographer. I was able to ask questions and have a discussion with Sally on these matters while being able to walk away from the conversation with action points of what I needed to change in my business. I will definitely book another session with Sally”

April Gillies - AUSTRALIA

“Sally was able to quickly grasp all the things I wanted to talk about and provide excellent, real-time insight and advice. I had so many take-aways from our call, which she then followed up with even more advice and action-steps on top of that!

I am so glad I worked with Sally and will absolutely be booking further sessions with her! Her professional insight and feedback are top-notch, and she's incredibly encouraging, uplifting, and fun to speak with. Her follow up was excellent and I definitely feel that she goes over and above the session! Totally worth the investment and can't wait to speak with her again”

 FAQs

  • Absolutely you can!

    In fact - most of the people who are interested are international. The wonders of technology mean you can be ANYWHERE and still have a session with me.

  • Not at this stage.

    In future - if the possibility of providing a longer-term mentorship program opens up, then i will look at it.

  • Yep!

    If you’re a beginner, i can guide you through from the start.

    If you’re of an intermediate level, we can work on more advanced concepts or business ideas.

    If you’re advanced, but getting stuck in one area in particular (say, mindset, creativity, or workflow) we can take a very direct approach to getting you what you need.

  • You need to have a willingness to do the work and learn.

    Coaching will give you accountability, education, guidance, and someone to support you - but YOU need to do the work. You will only get out of it what you put in.

    • If cancelled within 24 hours of your call/session time, the full amount must still be paid. If you choose to reschedule within 24 hours of your original call/session, you will get a half-call/session (30 mins). This is to ensure neither of our time gets wasted.

    • No refunds after a coaching call/session has been completed.

    • If you need to reschedule your call/session time, and you do so before 24 hours prior to your booking, no penalty will be imposed.
