READY TO DROP THE TRIAL AND ERROR?

You're in the right place.

If you've been struggling to get consistent portraits, master lighting, knowing what to charge, and the other million things that go into offering heirlooms to real paying clients, we understand the headache and are here to help. 

After years of training photographers, we have found that the fastest way to get the results you're looking for is hands on training in a small group setting.

Our flagship studio in Opelika, AL provides the perfect learning atmosphere to do just that.

When you register for the workshop, you get instant access to our online masterclass so you can jump right in to learning. The workshop is designed to implement, refine, and walk away with the confidence to launch your Heirloom business.

Courses

inside the session

$179.00

Are you a visual learner? If you have said to yourself, "If I could just see a session and have it explained I think I could figure it out...", This would be a great option for you. Maybe you are on the fence about using a strobe and need to see it in action before you commit. This is just what you need. 

the Heirloom edit

$397.00

Not a PS expert? Good news, neither was I. These videos won't leave you in the dust, I will explain exactly what you need and then you can use my very own action to edit your images. Get this... My action has step-by-step instructions built in. Don't know what an action is? It's ok, you are about to find out and do a happy dance. 

master the composite

$179.00

Are you beating your head against the wall trying to get consistent sizing on your composites? I've got your back. Here is a video of just what to do and even better, our very own PS template. I know it sounds too good to be true but it is.
