Build a sustainable and profitable business that doesn’t drain you or your passion for photography.
Meet Your Mentor
Hi! My name is Siobhan and I have been a photographer since 2015. Being self-taught, I had to learn a lot of hard lessons – whether it be shooting, editing or running my business.
I now own a profitable portrait studio from my home which is my full time income.
No, you don’t need fancy gear to be taken seriously. No, you don’t need to feel burnt out.
By launching my mentoring sessions, I hope to inspire and educate photographers to shoot beautiful portraits, edit like a pro and run a profitable business.
