JSP Online Mentorship
This is going to be way easier than you may be expecting. You are about to take a turn in your career that is unmatched because YOU are taking the initiative to learn. I'll keep things short and sweet, but read through all the details so we can ensure we're most prepared for our time together. I think it’s helpful for me to share a little about why I’m doing this.
I’ve spent countless hours trying to simplify my work load. Let’s be honest, balancing life as a wife, mother, friend, and business owner doesn’t happen over night. It takes numerous accounts of failure, getting back up, learning, and persevering. From the day I picked up my first “pro” camera to even today, I’ve sought out and valued other photographers that could help me see things from a new perspective and navigate the path to achieve my personal goals.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have more than one person dramatically help me on my photography journey. It has deeply inspired me to offer my support to others in the same way that I was able to benefit from so much.
Here are a couple of key things I’ve learned in growing a successful and enjoyable photography business:
1. You need an empowering group of people in your life that motivate and support you.
2. Success doesn’t just happen all at once or easily. It takes patience, dedication, and decisive action. While setting goals is important, manifestation of those goals requires an intentional mindset.
Since each individual photographer has different experience levels, styles, interests, etc., I have created this opportunity for mentorships that are catered to you individually. You deserve to have that customized guidance. A personalized experience that you’ll help create, will focus on your topics of greatest interest from the mentorship package you choose.
As I continually challenge myself to be the best mentor I can be for you, I ask that you help by challenging yourself as well. Create no limitations as to what you believe to be achievable. I’m eager to empower current and future talents in this industry. Plan on gaining immediately useful knowledge, mastering what you’ve learned, and ensuring growth in your craft and career. We’ve got this!

Scheduling Steps
Carefully read through all of the details in each of the workflow packages.
Once you have determined your package, click the “Book Now” link, select a date/time, sign the contract and pay the deposit ($475) to secure your spot,.. then give yourself a pat on the back—YOU are manifesting your dreams.
If you want to book both the Business Workflow and Post-Processing workflow packages, you can. You’ll still select one time slot when booking, and the deposit amount will remain the same. Make sure to indicate this on the questionnaire you’ll receive—see Step 3.
You’ll receive a confirmation email that will include your questionnaire. Please be detailed and specific when completing this—the more I know the more I can help you achieve your goals.
This is where you’ll indicate if you want to include the 30-min add-on or purchase both workflow packages. To be clear, the 30-min add on can only be added to one of the workflow packages and cannot be booked on its own.
Wait to receive our Zoom link and further instructions.
Do not hesitate to ask any questions—that's what I'm here for. Look forward to your session!

90-120 minutes is not nearly enough time to cover all of the available topics. This is where the importance of your questionnaire comes into play. While completing your questionnaire, please indicate the topics pertaining to what will be most useful to you—you know yourself better than anyone else! If you aren’t sure, I can give you suggestions.

You must have a basic knowledge of Lightroom Classic as well as owning and operating a DSLR in manual mode. Considering all of the valuable information we’ll be covering, I will not have the time to teach basic camera and or Lightroom functions. You must also shoot RAW, not JPEG.
There is a 100 mile radius restriction in place. You must live and operate your business outside of a 100 mile radius of Kansas City. For my international folks, if you are proficient in English you are more than welcome to take advantage of my mentorship. Unfortunately, at this time, English is the only language available.
Please note that registering while failing to comply with these requirements will only result in a partial refund since the deposit ($475) is non-refundable.
