As a teacher myself I can’t praise John & Jess enough. Their knowledge and teaching strategies are simply amazing. I have completed all the courses & 3 assistant days.

That’s a given, or you wouldn’t be reading this, unless you are a wedding photographer looking for ideas from me !
Then I’m flattered.
Do you want the very best foundation possible? Then our Mentor Me Course is for you!
What ‘s Included ?
Not only do you get to watch experts at work, and learn from advice at an actual wedding, but you get the chance to obsereve them set up their equipment, look at how they light subjects, see their in-camera settings, listen to what they say and how they control the day and use their people skills to get the very best from the couple and the guests. All of a sudden you pick up so many tips and tricks you will wonder why you haven’t done this before now.
Additionally, you will be supported, encouraged and mentored through a process of learning by doing and by seeing others at work. In addition, you may get to meet other students with a passion for photography and join the same Face-Book group to share ideas.
That’s up to 6-10 hrs hands-on training and observation on the day. INVALUABLE !!
Afterwards we spend time critiquing your work. Our mentorship program gives you access, once a month, to a Zoom platform with John or Jess which provides the opportunity to speak one on one with an expert photographer and business guru about your work or concerns you have with your business. These sessions can last up to an hour which we find is the optimum time scale.
