Education for Photographers
Hey! I’m Nina Larsen Reed
You might be asking yourself “who the heck is this chick, and why would I want to learn from her?” And I get it.
I’m not Insta-famous, I haven’t won a Rangefinder award, and I’ve only been a wedding photographer for three years.
But I know what works.
I booked 33 weddings and made six figure revenue in my first full year of photographing weddings. I increased my profits by 45% in year two. I went from booking my first $750 Craigslist wedding to booking a $5000 elopement in sixteen months.
And more importantly than numbers: I love my job and my couples. I don’t spend long evenings editing, and I take plenty of time off to go hiking, travel the world, and snuggle with my cats and husband (in that order).
If you want to learn how you can get these kinds of results while creating a life and business that you love, I’m here to help.
I have paid for mentoring sessions from other photographers in the past, and some have been too much information crammed into a short period of time, while others didn’t help me at all. Nina took time to thoroughly review my website before our video chat, and we talked about any questions that I had, but the best part is that I got homework! It was written out, and I checked off things down the list. It has streamlined my workflow and taken it down to bite sized portions that are easy to maintain. I’d recommend her mentoring to anyone looking to improve their business!
