Looking For a Biz Breakthrough?

Growing a small business can feel a whole lot like throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping something sticks.

Ever felt like this?

They (who is "they" anyway?!) say you should be on all the social platforms posting #allthethings, but how do you know what's working and what's simply a waste of your time? Oh, and then there's ads, your website, and your marketing strategies...it can all be a bit overwhelming.

I created this coaching program to be a fast-track business solution for photographers that are serious about becoming profitable and looking to help their business thrive. The Accelerator Program is a one-on-one, customized photography business coaching program unlike any other. 

Let's just say I have thrown a lot of spaghetti and I know what sticks. 

because that's kind of my thing

Photography Business coach

I'm sure you're great to talk to, but instead of having those business conversations out loud with yourself (or is that just me?) you'll get someone new replying back.

You get unlimited message access via Voxer to bounce ideas, and share your progress.  I'm also available to review  any work you create (like blog content) and give you live feedback on your social media. 

A Biz BFF

Sometimes the most overwhelming part of business is simply not knowing what to focus on next and where to spend your time....but now you have a game plan and the clarity to get it done.

Throughout the Accelerator program, you'll have action steps clearly outlined so you know what you should be working on.

Accountability & Action Steps

My one on one coaching as been described as the perfect combination of loving yet zero-fluff business strategy. I am 100% invested in your success and that means I'm going to tell you what you need to hear and how to grow (and not just basic tips!)

You'll get 1:1 calls to deep dive into your business, brainstorm strategies, and craft your next steps so you know EXACTLY what to do next in your business.

It has transformed my business from entry-level to a high-end business. After working with Joy, I was published 5 times, and I went from charging 1500 for wedding photography to 3200. I can not wait to see what the future has in store for me. 

Investing in Joy as a coach was by far the best investment I have made for my business.

My favorite part was how supportive Joy was. I don't open up about my business too often because I'm afraid of people tearing my business to pieces (even though critiques are essential to grow). Joy was gentle and positive when talking about where I was at and was encouraging when we talked about what I could do differently. 

 I knew I needed help to grow.

Before working with Joy, I was having trouble finding clients, converting client calls, showing up on social media, blogging, and knowing who my target clients are. She really helped me find who my target audience is, and taught me how to repurpose content in different ways. I am now nailing client calls!

Working with Joy was amazing!!

Why The Accelerator Is Different 

There's a lot of information out there about growing a successful photography business, but what's missing is how to build a business that serves your life. I'm not going to tell you to work every single weekend, barely sleep and miss out on life. It is possible to be a photographer, be profitable, and skip the hustle.

Are you ready for a business that serves you? Let's do this!

I usually want to quit my photography business about once every 6 weeks but since working together I feel clarity and confidence for the first time.

YES! COUNT ME IN!

You are tired of wasting your time wishing you could grow your business but not knowing how to get there.

You need a clear plan and direction so you can skip the overwhelm. 

You are willing to put in the work, but it seems like no matter what you try nothing works

You are feeling lost and overhelmed when it comes to attracting higher paying clients

Coaching IS FOR YOU IF

This is for you if you are a photographer with a business, a website, and some experience, but you're not sure how to break through to the next level. You're great at what you do, but no one seems to know you exist. You love your clients, but you're feeling stuck and wish you could raise your prices. 

Are we the perfect fit?

Maybe You're Wondering if This is For You
