BECAUSE OF YOU, I HAVE FOUND THE COURAGE TO BACK MYSELF.

After doing your amazing workshop I have found the courage to back myself. I have up-sold from individual digital sales to selling prints, frames and even an album. I've had a 4 figure quote accepted and product samples prints and big plans in place.

 

I cannot thank you ladies enough. The workshop really has changed things for me."

- Rachel Hume
IT'S FOR YOU IF...
You're sick of feeling the overwhelm
You want an easy understanding of pricing and how to serve yourself, your lifestyle and your clients!
You no longer want to chop and change
You're ready to nail down that pricing, address the blocks that come up when it comes to money and stop selling with your own wallet.
You're ready to turn your business into something sustainable
Maybe you are already established or perhaps you've just started out but you want to uncap your sales, earn more per job and get your time back.
You want to chat all things marketing
You're sick of doing all the work and now you're ready to have the workflow & client experience that generates those enquiries, bookings and referrals and sends them your way.

WHO'S IT FOR?

I WANT TO BE THE FIRST TO KNOW
IT CHANGED EVERYTHING.
At the time my packages were like $200 to $400. I wasn't making a living, it was just an expensive hobby. I did the workshop and it just totally changed my perspective on what my business could be. I got into this because I liked to take pretty photos, but no one ever taught me how to run a business and how to make money and feed my family and pay my bills. I went to this workshop and it just changed everything."
- Sarah Grayson
You think about money a hell of a lot more than you think you do. And sometimes those conversations you have in your head, they're not all that beneficial to your business or even your day to day life. On the first day we are going to discuss money mindset and then smash into turnover and pricing. Before we finish up for the day, you'll be shooting an epic styled shoot created just for you guys!

MONEY & TURNOVER

THIS IS ME
IT WAS HONESTLY JUST EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED.

I recently had a really rough night with my son, one of I'm sure many to come as a parent. And he needed my hand to go to sleep. I had to sit down on the ground next to his bed, holding his hand, for over 40 minutes. And the whole time I was doing that, I was just thinking about my to-do list and it was stressing me out and I had a moment. I was so worked up and stressed about having to spend 40 minutes with my son, and realistically I should have 40 minutes to spend with my kids when they need me, but my business was not set up to allow that. I could only have a successful business if I did volume and that's not the reality that I wanted. When I first got into photography I got into it because I wanted to have a job that I love that could still allow flexibility for my family.

 

This workshop was just perfect. It gives you the frame work and the confidence to be able make some of the tweaks to your business to make it more sustainable."

"IT'S ABOUT WORKING SMARTER, NOT HARDER.

I’ve been running my photography business for 6 years now, without really knowing how to run a business so have been muddling my way through after being made redundant from my job at a newspaper and throwing myself into the world of freelance work.

 

It was awesome to extend my photography community by meeting some new faces and it was great to invest the time to further educate myself on how I can do things smarter and working on providing a complete experience for my clients!"

- Christine Cornege

I 100% RECOMMEND IDHTBTH TO ANYONE WHO IS RUNNING A PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS OF ANY GENRE.
I was lucky enough to be at the last workshop and I learnt a lot about the business side of things. I learnt that there is actually a method to price your services and how to allocate your finances. I have been practising this ever since and it has helped me a lot in the sense that I know exactly where I stand with my personal and business finances, which in turn helps to make pricing decisions for future jobs. Also Haley has personally been incredibly helpful to answer any questions I have in the process of setting up our studio."

STILL UNSURE?

LET'S LOOK AT IT THIS WAY

We spend money on things we prioritise right, and it's easy to prioritise a new school uniform, a new cell phone, a new lens. But sometimes investing in ourselves, our businesses OR even in something like this that you're unsure that it's not just all hype - is hard. (Psst it's not just all hype).

But... it's also really easy to say - oh it's just the cost of xyz. It's about priorities.

If we buy a coffee a day on our way to work that job we wish we could quit so we could do our dream job, we would spend $1560 a year, on coffee. And that's not taking into consideration those extra delicious star bucks super large coffees that I pretend I need to get through my day.

Now, that coffee doesn't actually make you money - I mean it might make up for not sleeping at night but realistically, so could changing your business up so that you actually have time to sleep. But that's not the point.

The point is, that you could create so much more money from attending this workshop, so SO much faster, than if you didn't. It will pay for itself the moment you book three, just three of those $500 family shoots! OR just ONE $1500 family shoot. Imagine if you booked a $10,000 wedding from this workshops styled shoot? The possibilities are endless.
SO IS EARNING ENOUGH TO SLEEP AT NIGHT INSTEAD OF WORKING AT NIGHT, WORTH THE COST OF YOUR COFFEES IN THE SHORT TERM, FOR THE LONG TERM?

A TOTAL GAME CHANGER.
Thanks to It Doesn't Have To Be This Hard, I definitely feel like I am on the right track to grow my business, to be forward thinking, and growth minded. The knowledge and experience from Ruth and Haley was so beneficial and I no longer feel like I am fumbling in the dark. A photography business is about so much more than just taking pretty pictures. You could take the most beautiful portraits in the world but if you were undercharging, burning yourself out, not goal setting or planning - it is only ever going to be a really expensive hobby! This workshop will give you the knowledge to make your business profitable, to have family time, to sustain your lifestyle, to give yourself a raise, to have holidays, to meet your goals and create the life you want."
