for Wedding & PORTRAIT Photographers, and Creatives.

The coaching program built as a clear, proven path to your six-figure+ photography business.

And I almost believed that narrative.

But let me tell you a different one.

“You’re going to burn out. All photographers do.”


"THERE ARE TOO MANY PHOTOGRAPHERS. THE INDUSTRY IS OVERSATURATED."

"YOU CAN'T CHARGE PREMIUM PRICES IN THIS ECONOMY."

I’ve heard all the "can't do it" phrases...

...there IS
another
 way.

You're booking out, but wish you could raise your prices and work less.

You have crickets in your inbox, or significantly less than you'd like, and it's really getting old.

You're surviving, but your business is NOT growing and some days it even feels like it's dying.

When someone inquires, it excites you at first, then stresses you out because you know they're just going to ghost again.

You're booking out, but wish you could raise your prices and work less.

You're just looking at everyone else's prices, and throwing your own somewhere in the middle.

Even if...

The immersive, ongoing coaching program to rocket launch your photography business towards six figures and beyond.

This is not for those looking for a course on creativity, artistry, how to shoot, and how to edit. This is not a bunch of tips and tricks that just “help a little bit.”


This is an intentional, immersive, year-round program designed for photographers & videographers, to transform your business, top to bottom.

My Story

Who is nathan?

Keep reading...

I started a photography “business” because I loved photography, knew how to take photos and edit them, and loved it.

But after about 2 years into pursuing a photography business, I was still only booking $2k-$3k per wedding, and getting crickets in my inbox during the worldwide pandemic of 2020.

I started considering if I needed to change my career because I had just gotten married and needed to provide for my family.

I realized my massive problem: I didn’t know business. I didn’t know how to make money.

I had thought I just needed to be the best photographer, with the best client experience to succeed as a photographer.

Unfortunately, I was wrong, and I came to know it quickly and painstakingly.

I spent the next year putting all my energy into learning business. I read the books. I took the courses. I hired the coaches. I devoured the podcasts. I tested. Hustled. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Got crazy. Swan dove outside my comfort zone.

I transformed my offer and pricing. Overhauled my sales process. Flipped my marketing upside down.

I was the definition of the starving artist…

read from beginning

are you ready?

I realized: “It can really happen… I can pursue my passion, and it can actually provide the life I dreamed of for me and my family.”

That’s the power of business.

If you can learn how to make abundant money on the thing that you love, the full dream becomes a reality.

That’s what I love teaching. I love helping people with the very things that I struggled with.
I will always love the art of photography, the shooting, the editing, etc… and I even have a course on editing and a preset pack because I had to learn those things the hard way as well!

But business is what I love teaching most. And it’s what you’ll find me lighting up about the most in this space.

I want you to see the transformation I saw in my business… and more.

at a six-figure year in photography bookings for the first time. 

And all praise to God, the following year I was looking back

Because I want to see that reality come to life for YOU.

That’s why I built this program.

Can I be honest with you? I could answer this by giving a value breakdown of how much you’re getting in this course and why it’s all worth WAY over the price I’m asking, and I will do that below.

But as your friend, here’s the truth you need to hear: you can’t afford to NOT be a part of this. If what you’ve been doing has not been reaching your goals, every day you continue on that journey is costing you.

But hey… just for fun, let’s also look at the value you’re getting:
