FOR THE BOLD. AUTHENTIC, AND WILDLY ALIVE PHOTOGRAPHERS.
For Photographers
Presets
salt & earth. wayward alchemy. wayward revival wayward storyteller.
There is a pack for everyone. From the bold and vivid to the retro film look, I have created several packs to fit your vibe for both Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Mobile. Head over to the shop to see them in action and join my Facebook group for free education and mentorship (as well as the presets in action!).
Mentorships
I've been doing this for over a decade now and I'll tell you anything you want to know. There is no weird gate-keeping, no vague-posting, no "book a call to find out my secrets, Frodo Baggins." Pick the one below that matches how stuck you are.
From learning how the heck to use your camera, to learning the crevices of Lightroom and Photoshop, how to create your own brand voice and style, to coming along on a shoot with me, to being your biggest foam finger waving in the stands as you stand up or improve your business - I gotchu.
The Compass

FAQ
Will we learn about posing and people skills with the mentorship?
Yes - this is one of the entire reasons this exists.
Posing isn't a list you memorize and deploy. it's reading the family in front of you, knowing what to say when the four-year old goes boneless and saggy-butt from being tired, and getting people to forget you're standing their half a foot away from their face. That's the actual skill, and almost nobody teaches it these days because everything is about stylized this and stylized that and it doesn't fit into a PDF.
We will work on directing REAL people, in real light, in real time. You'll leave knowing what to say.
Who are these mentorships designed for?
From moms who want to learn how to use their camera up to experienced photographers who need a new "oomph" in their pants with direction, their business, or editing. You don't need to be advanced. In the words of the Army, for everybody ladidadi.
