Programme Content

Each week we will address a different aspect of your branding, then marketing, which will be broken down roughly as follows:

Define your style: As soon as you book the programme you'll be sent a link to book your blitz. In a one hour one-to-one session we will go through your work and I'll pinpoint the hero shots so you know where you should be heading.

Define your direction: After you book the blitz you'll receive info and instructions and templates to start the juices flowing so you can think about this prior to the first week.

Week 1: Harness your essence. Establishing your purpose, your values & your social conscience, and developing a long term project around these. Setting goals.

What you need to know

You will be asked to book an Image Blitz session as soon as you've booked into Bootcamp.

It's included in the price and ensures you are clear about your direction, and will be able to focus clearly on the work we cover.

If you've already had a blitz with me the cost will be deducted.

The Bootcamp will also include:

  • Weekly one hour video coaching sessions so you can listen from anywhere in the world, at any time you wish
  • Tasks set each week relating to the week's topic so can implement what you learn immediately.
  • LIVE weekly group Q&A calls with me, where I answer your questions about the process, things you're stuck on, etc. This is held in the sanctuary of our closed Facebook group
  • Full access to 'Get paid what you love' Bootcamp website- a membership resource site including additional tools to help with the work and all programme recordings, slide shows, downloads and more
  • Free access to our closed, private Bootcamp Facebook group so that you can get support from other photographers in a safe environment. Here you can safely ask questions, discuss mutual issues, share useful resources and recommendations. As everyone has been through the programme you'll find many photographers walking the talk who can help you with your own issues. Being a photographer can be lonely- this is a wonderful and helpful tribe!

This is a very powerful and intense process. If you decide to join us be prepared to invest some quality time into the programme to gain maximum benefit, plus some openness to letting go of old habits and beliefs. Are you ready for that kick in the pants?

'Your course has had a quite an effect on me!!'

What my clients say

Discovering my 'wow' style is a reaffirmation of all my core values, which I had forgotten in my drive to be a parent and satisfy clients -
Christina has lit the candle which is going to help me start a bonfire ! I now feel re-energized and determined to break the rut in which I was in.
