Here's the thing... You may REALLLLLYYY want your business to be thriving, but it takes a bit more than just passion to make it work. Especially when there are plenty of other photographers out there to "compete" with and A LOT of photographer websites and social media are all saying the same thing. Ready to stop competing, stop blending in with the crowd and start focusing on you and your business? We dig deep on the important questions... Why are you doing this whole photography thing? What it is that makes you different? Who it is you want to work with? How it is that you change people's lives? And exactly how you are going to get in front of those people and get them to value and trust you enough to book?! This 6 Month small group mentoring is meant to push you in ways you have not even considered when it comes to WHO you are and what it is you WANT to offer... all with the end goal of providing you with a unique voice and brand (which is soooo needed if you want to stand out in the sea of other photographers), and powerful marketing techniques which we will implement together. Through a mix of introspective, practical and theoretical processes, you will learn about setting goals and achieving them through actionable steps and forward thinking.

Mentoring
Ash will be there to guide you through, no matter where you are at with your business. Whether you are just starting out or have been having a go at your business for 10 years, this mentoring program lays everything out for you by providing thorough feedback, tangible steps & tons of support.
Small Group
Learning & Content
Learning will be done through a variety of methods. There will be written materials provided, video walk-throughs, group video discussions, private Facebook group discussions, one-on-one discussions as well as assignments to help you implement what you have learned. You will also receive a number of templates and tools you can use for your business. All the written & video learning material will be available to you on the DFP Education platform. Time Commitment: Depending on what we are working on, the time commitment will vary week to week. So somewhere between 4-16 hours per week.
One-on-One Mentoring
Throughout the 6 months, you will be able to have at least 2 one-on-one video mentoring chats with Ash via Zoom. During these chats, Ash will check in with you to see where you are at, what areas in particular you need further help or encouragement in, have open q&a and anything else you may need more support with.
Group Video Chats
There will be group video calls via zoom (in month 1, in month 3-4, and in month 6), which will allow us to have an open verbal discussion about anything and everything you are learning about. These calls usually last around 2 hours and are recorded for those who cannot attend. The group chat schedule will be decided once we look at where all of the students are from, time zones, etc.
Additional Support
In addition to support from Ash, Johanna Schoffert will also be there to assist the group. Johanna has an extensive background in websites and SEO and her knowledge is invaluable. She is full of information when it comes to online marketing and has been rocking her business via online methods for years.
This program is for you if:
you are just starting your business OR have been in business but have yet to reach the success level you want
you need actionable steps, support, and accountability;
you are done with just grabbing at bits and pieces of business information that may or may not work for you;
you are damn determined to have a successful business and are ready to do the work to make it happen;
you are ready to dig deep into finding what makes you different and learning how to effectively communicate that value to clients
you don't mind when Ash uses a cuss word here or there because she can't help herself and enjoys saying things like "Hell yes!! I am so fucking happy for you" and she means it.
Working in a group has given me new amazing relations, and I love the support and help we continue to give one another. We were at different stages in our businesses when we entered the group, but this has never been a problem.!"
