10 years ago I made one of the scariest decisions of my life. I decided against going to university and instead I took a leap of faith and went full-time on my passion for photography.
There were many up’s and down’s but after a couple of years I made my first million, doing what I Iove. What I realized is that mastering the business side of your creative career is far more important then your actual photo skills (or design, content, etc).
The creative landscape is changing and it’s not the best photographers who make the most amount of money any more, it’s the photographers who know how to sell themselves, build relationships and think outside the box.
There are creators right now who are less talented than you, making 6 figures+ a year because they’ve understood how to do three things very well.
They understand their unique and intrinsic value, they’ve built a team that can support them, and they have mastered the art of selling their services for a high price point.
Luckily for you, I want to help you dominate it all and give you the secrets to realizing your true potential and start earning the money you deserve using the skills you already have. That’s why I created Future Photo.
You don’t need to buy another course teaching you how to edit photos, create animations, or become a video editor.
What you know right now is enough to get you paid a premium. All you need to master is how to sell yourself in any room for any brand.
Without knowing your value, worth, how to price yourself, and how to sell yourself, you can have all the creative skills in the world but no work or money to show for it.
It’s time for brands to say YES to you and for you to believe in what you are capable of. You with me?
Constantly trying to chase your dreams and go full-time with your passion but nothing seems to work and you are feeling hopeless.
But here’s the deal. It will always be hard. Creating a business that’s worth anything takes time. Because nothing worth having comes easy.
It’s so important to trust in your journey and the process you are going through because you may be surprised to find out that the universe is taking you to places you couldn’t even imagine.
and it’s up to us to create what that looks like. Waiting and procrastinating on your dreams doesn’t help anyone and leaves you feeling worse about yourself as every day goes by.
Take it from me. It is NOT to late to do what you love full-time and have a thriving business. I believe in you. Your dreams are worth it. But the longer you wait and try and do it all yourself, the more time you’ll waste being a struggling creator.

Photographers now have the ability to create a brand that showcases their work online and be pushed by the algorithms to go viral reaching millions of people worldwide. This is called a personal brand, and it’s absolutely essential if your goal is to build a successful photography business.
With the emergence of blockchain technology, creators have now quickly immersed themselves inside of the NFT tech and culture. NFTs are a way for creators to sell unique work digitally that people can own and have proof of via a smart contract.
If you’ve ever wondered how creators like me or the hundreds of others you see online get to work with really cool brands it’s simply because we know how to sell ourself and position what we do in way that is highly attractive to brands across the globe.
There’s a couple of things that separate the amateurs and the pro’s. Mindset is one of them, if you can learn to master your thoughts and behaviors you can achieve anything you want as a creative.
There’s an important piece that we haven’t talked about yet that is vital to being a successful and fulfilled creator. That is, your mindset.
Having a strong mindset that is grounded in deep emotional intelligence and understanding how to navigate the difficulties of life and business is more important than any social media marketing strategy you can have.
When you are able to face difficulties in your life and know how to respond to them, its absolutely game changer. No matter how old we get or how much we think we know, there’s always an opportunity to learn more and respond to life smarter.
I’ve had my many fair share of life breakdowns, career breakdowns, relationship breakdowns, and so much more! Going through these things taught me so much and knowing what I know now, I wish I had the mindset tools in those situations so I could respond differently.
I want to help you build a mindset that is rooted in your truth, authenticity, and excellence. With the ability to go through the building phases of your business and feel like you are always in control regardless of the current metrics or numbers in your bank account.
Inside this course you will have access to materiel that will help you learn how to build a powerful mindset for your life.
If you are someone who is ready to hit the gas pedal on their creative career and not just relay on a course to help them build a 6 figure business, then this is for you.
I firmly believe that lone-wolfing is the easiest way to burn out and lose hope of ever getting to where you want to be. But when you are in community with other like minded individuals with ambitions goals like yourself, you get this
who you surround yourself with and the energy you put yourself into is much more important that any course.
