THE

CURRICULUM

0. INTRODUCTION TO COURSE AND GUIDE

We are thrilled to have you join us on this incredible journey into the art of wedding photography! We know you might be eager to jump straight into certain sections, but we highly recommend starting from the beginning and following the course through to the final video. Each lesson builds on the previous one, ensuring you gain the full benefit of the course and emerge with a comprehensive understanding of wedding photography. Let's embark on this exciting adventure together

1. TRANSFORMING YOUR THOUGHTS

This model is probably the most important section you will ever encounter. Not only will it elevate your game in the photography world, but it will also transform your life forever—if you take action. We often find ourselves demotivated, struggling to climb out of bed, let alone run our photography business. We understand because we've been there before. But we've found the life hack, and we want to share it with you. We don't always realize it, but art comes from within. If your heart and mind aren't in the right place, it will show in your work—and believe it or not, others will sense it too when they view your photography. By the time you realize it, it may be too late, with fewer and fewer clients, leading to the harsh reality of closing your doors. So let's give your mind a makeover with this incredible section: 'Transforming Your Thoughts and step into a new reality.

2. HOW TO BUILD A BRAND AND YOUR PORTFOLIO

When walking along the beach, you see many footprints around you and rarely take a moment to wonder who they belong to. But we want to help you make a lasting footprint that people recognize without even seeing your company’s name. We also guide you on how to create a portfolio and build a brand that you can be proud of, rather than one that leaves you feeling unsatisfied."

3. PRICING CALCULATOR

As a photographer, you might be thrilled by the enquiries you receive but find yourself dreading the pricing part. Often, we underquote ourselves simply because we’re unsure what to charge. By the time you realize you’re not making a profit, you might be on the brink of closing your doors. But we’re excited to offer a solution: our web app calculator. It helps you determine what to charge, how many weddings you need to book each month, how much to set aside for new gear, and more. With the right pricing strategy, you can keep doing what you love—being a wedding photographer

4. WHAT THE HELL IS MARKETING?

We all have a general understanding of marketing, but the real question is: Are you doing it correctly? You can invest thousands in ads, but if you don’t set everything up properly, your ads may go unnoticed. In a crowded market with so many photographers, standing out has become more challenging than ever before. This section will guide you through:

-How to market yourself in the industry

-Setting up your Meta Business Page

-How to create a killer Instagram layout.

With these tips, you’ll be well-equipped to make a lasting impression

5. HOW TO AVOID HAVING AN AWKWARD MEETING

How to avoid having an awquard meeting? Ever walk out of a meeting feeling like you just tried to strike up a conversation with a cat that’s more interested in staring you down than talking back? We've all been there, wondering how things got so awkward. But don’t worry—we’ve got a foolproof strategy to turn even the most uncomfortable meeting into a smooth and easy chat. Our method will help the shyest photographer navigate any client meeting like a seasoned pro, teaching you to read your clients and understand what they’re unable to communicate to you and even to their spouse. And once they see how professional and organized you are, they won’t even think twice about choosing you over your competition.

6. CREATE A TIME SCHEDULE WITH OUR WEB APP CALCULATOR

Ever wondered how we manage to capture so many perfect shots in just one day, all while keeping everything calm and stress-free? The secret is in our meticulous planning. We provide each of our couples with a customized time schedule, and now, we’re excited to share our entire process with you. After more than 13 years, we’ve perfected a schedule that keeps everyone relaxed on the big day and allows us to be creative without the pressure of time. And here’s the best part—with our web app calculator, you can input your location and the date of the wedding, and it will automatically give you the golden hour. Once you have your golden hour, you can use our method or customize the duration of each section of the wedding day, and the calculator will handle the rest. You can even add extra time for those photographers who love a good snack before the couple’s shoot!

7. THE PROCESS AFTER THE MEETING

So the meeting went well, and everyone’s buzzing with excitement—what’s next? We’re here to guide you every step of the way to ensure you seal the deal and land that wedding. Learn how to confidently ask for payment without coming across as greedy, and how to craft an invoice that leaves your clients excited rather than intimidated. We’ll share our go-to email templates that we send to brides leading up to the big day, making them feel cherished and valued. Plus, we’ll give you a special template packed with amazing tips for your brides, designed to make their lives easier—and yours too.Even when a meeting goes perfectly, there’s always a chance a client might ask for a discount (weddings are pricey, after all). We’ll show you how to navigate these conversations with finesse and how to justify your premium pricing with confidence. And to top it all off, we’ll teach you how to set up a digital questionnaire that gathers all the essential details from your clients, saving you from sending 15 back-and-forth emails.

8. PLANNING BEHIND AN ENGAGEMENT SHOOT

This is such an important section—this is where you earn your clients' trust, and it’s this day that helps ensure the wedding day runs smoothly. We truly spend a lot of time with our brides, planning the engagement shoot and assisting them. In this module, we’ll show you just how far we go, from timelines to mood boards to shopping online, to make sure we’re all on the same page. It is here where the friendship begins.

9. THE MUST-HAVE GEAR WHEN SHOOTING A WEDDING

In this section, we’ll take you through the gear we’ve come to trust, especially the lenses that help us capture our best work. It’s about more than just equipment—it’s about expressing your vision in the best way possible. We’re here to help you make choices that resonate with your creative journey."The right lens can have your client looking like they just stepped off the runway. The wrong lens? Let’s just say, it might lead to some awkward conversations—and a lot of ‘that’s not really me, right?’ moments. We’ll also let you in on a few of the small, often overlooked items we carry that make a big difference in our day-to-day work. These essentials keep us ready for anything, and we’re excited to share them with you.

10. BECOME A HYBRID PHOTOGRAPHER

Hybrid photography is all about merging photos and videos to create versatile and dynamic content. By capturing both stills and motion, you can tell a richer, more engaging story. In today’s digital landscape, platforms like Instagram and TikTok thrive on captivating visual content.

We’re constantly learning, and with every new insight, we’ll share what we learn. Mastering this skill will help you shoot faster, as you’ll no longer wonder what to do when you walk into a room—you’ll just know.

We also discuss how to be well-prepared so you can navigate the day like a pro.

13. HOW WE BACKUP AND ORGANIZE OUR IMAGES

We’re thrilled to say that we’re here to help you stay organized, show you how to label your images for easy finding, and back up your files.
