Are You Ready To Claim Your Calling In The Next 90 Days & Build The Photography Business of Your God-Given Dreams?
 

Without DIYing Your Biz, Wasting Time Re-Inventing The Wheel & Feeling Like You Have To Be Like Every Other Photographer In Your Area?

Booked 50+ Seniors Since Covid Lockdowns & Never Photographed Them Prior! Pivoted from Weddings to Seniors.

 

"Where do I even begin!? I absolutely loved going through Ashley’s program and learning so much about how to make my business more profitable! She is hands-down the best coach and super committed to her students. She is also highly knowledgeable of the industry, marketing, sales and so much more. I initially was focused on weddings at the beginning of the year but I had made a pivot before the pandemic to start focusing on seniors. I took to heart what Ashley had taught in her program and what she had coached me on and I went from never having photographed a senior girl before to photographing over 50 SENIORS!!!! I even found myself having to turn clients away because my calendar was completely booked. Because of the demand, I was able to raise my prices and needless to say I have had my best year yet!!! I highly recommend Ashley and her program! It works!"

a sustainable + profitable photography business

IS POSSIBLE FOR YOU IN 3 MONTHS

But maybe you're feeling lost, confused, frustrated...or even alone on this journey.

And it's starting to give you anxiety because you feel the pressure of having these big dreams, but you don't know HOW or WHEN they will happen. 

FRUSTRATED WITH THE LACK OF LEGIT INQUIRIES?

Have you realized your photography  business doesn't run off of hope; you need a strategy? Tired of no inquiries, getting ghosted, or getting the "wrong" inquiries?

 

STRUGGLE WITH CLOSING THE SALE AND BOOKING?

Are you scared of sounding "salesy" and fear the awkward client "money" conversations? Do you fear losing your current clients if you make changes in your business? 
 

HAVE A HARD TIME WITH NITTY, GRITTY BUSINESS STUFF?

Do you struggle with efficient workflows, confusing things like Facebook Ads + SEO, and feel like you do a poor job at prioritizing the important, money-making things in your business?

 

TIRED OF THE DIY BUSINESS MODEL AND FEEL STUCK?

Getting burnt out on trying to reinvent the wheel and do everything yourself? Feel like everything you are doing is fruitless? Don't know where to start when you actually have time? Feel stuck in your own head?
 

HAVE A BORING BRAND + NO ACTUAL TARGET CLIENT? 

Are you feeling like your brand is too surface level? It doesn't fully connect with you or your clients? And you don't feel any different than other photographers in the market? Maybe you have no real brand at all?

 

SCARED OF FAILING IN YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY BUSINESS?

Do you need some serious business transformation? Do you need outlined and actionable steps to make these changes? Need to make your business work or you might have to close or stay in your day job?

STRUGGLE TO FIND CAPTIVATING MARKETING CONTENT?

Can you never find anything to blog about or post on Instagram? Feel intense pressure to constantly be posting on social media? Don't have any purpose behind your marketing?

DESIRE TIME + MONEY FREEDOM SO YOU CAN BUILD A LEGACY?

Do you feel like a slave to your business? Tired of leaving your family on the most beautiful days of the year? No money to do the things you love? Always stressing out about the future?

Booked 50+ Seniors Since Covid Started & Never Photographed Them Prior! Pivoted from Weddings to Seniors.

Creative no longer struggles to
understand business!

“Taking Ashley’s course has really helped me to look at the business side of being self-employed. Being someone with a creative side, I struggled with trying to balance photography and business. After taking her course I now have a new perspective on what it takes to run a successful photography business. I feel confident that I can book my ideal client and to have value in myself. Taking this course helped me with branding, marketing and IPS. I am looking forward to taking the skill I have learned to further my career in photography. Thank you, Ashley, for creating this course!”

And maybe you crave a 

A GODLY PHOTOGRAPHY COMMUNITY?

Do you want believers to be accountability partners with? Desire to end isolation and have real friendships?  Wish that you were surrounded by a like-minded community who get your struggle?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You know that God put this desire to run a photography business deep in your heart.

So, let's take a minute and DREAM for a bit.

PERHAPS THIS IS THE MOMENT FOR WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN CREATED.

ESTHER 4:14

 

IMAGINE THIS...

KNOWING THE VISION,

BUT THE LORD DIRECTING YOUR STEPS...


 

Every day you wake up with excitement because you’re thriving in your photography business. You have something to be happy about! You don’t live in fear of where the next booking is going to come from, because your calendar is constantly booked solid with the client’s you’ve been praying for.

 

Instead of feeling misunderstood in a predominately secular photography industry, you have made REAL friendships with believers all around the country who understand the most important thing in your life, your relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 

Your brand is so incredibly on-point, and connects not only with your heart and soul, but vibes with your dream tribe. You know exactly what you want and need in your business, and you know exactly how to set actionable and effective goals as well as achieve them.

Business is literally fun! Your systems are so streamlined and efficient, that you’re able to focus on the connection with your dream client, and give them an incredible customer experience where they are just begging to send you referrals. You constantly get the warm fuzzies because you get to do life with and serve your clients.

The scary business stuff, like taxes, accounting, and SEO (OMG!!) is suddenly not so scary, and you actually feel confident and more tech savvy, because you’ve fought through the resistance of telling yourself lies like “this is too hard.” You've seen a huge change in your ability to start and finish what you set out to do.

You actually know what to blog about or post on Instagram without sounding repetitive or boring, and you notice that booking clients is so much easier because you confidently exude your brand in everything you say and do. You also have a marketing system in place that allows you to make money on demand.

 

 

Confident in a Successful + Profitable Business!

"Investing in Ashley’s business course was one of the best decisions I’ve made in regards to my own business. She not only walked through the basics of starting of a business but she also went in depth with branding, finding your ideal client, marketing and IPS. Having her input in those major areas has definitely given me the confidence and skill set I need to take my business to the next level. I’m really looking forward to the next chapter of running a successful and profitable business of my own."

$2700 + Other Big Sales, Opened First

Studio Location & Building a Boudoir Segment
 

"I believe Ashley was brought into my life for a reason. When I first came across Ashley, I did a mini program of hers, then her mastermind. Instantly was so intrigued because as I was becoming more serious in my business, I realized how amateur I was in it. I knew nothing about business and marketing or IPS. I was making around $100 per shoot n burn session, giving away tons of images and burning myself out. I truly did not value myself or my work. With Ashley’s program,and the motivation, drive and mindset work I did within, I totally switched gears, now do IPS and have had some big sales. While in Ashley’s program, I had my first $2700 sale and my mind was blown. I’m so thankful for her marketing help and for breaking down the business side of things in an easy and understandable way. I wouldn’t be here today if I didn’t take those first steps with her program. ❤️"

Update: Developed a brand ambassador program for families, opened a studio and now is building a boudoir segment!

Y
YOU FEEL PEACE + HAVE FREEDOM BECAUSE
YOU HAVE THE TIME AND MONEY TO
DO WHATEVER YOU WANT

 

LIKE TAKE A FAMILY TRIP TO THE BEACH, PAY OFF YOUR HOUSE, HOMESCHOOL...AND OF COURSE GIVE TO YOUR CHURCH & THE CAUSES YOU'VE BEEN CALLED TO.

No more missing out on being with your family during constant evenings and weekends. No more stressing about the money to take a trip of a lifetime.  You want to take busy season off? Heck yes...go on that trip to Germany instead or take off 1/2 the year so you can spend time with your new baby. Your business has the ability to give you that freedom.
 

TO LOVE SELLING BECAUSE YOUR CLIENTS LOVE YOUR SERVICES?
 

How would it feel to be confident, excited, and joyful about designing beautiful heirlooms for your clients? How would it feel to be encouraged and validated because you get to see your client's reaction to the artwork you're creating?

Big paychecks and EVEN BIGGER
Love Tank Deposits.

 

TO WORK 2-DAYS A WEEK & 
MAKE A FULL-TIME SALARY?
 

How would it feel to be able to choose when you work, not stress about having to edit 20 shoots over a weekend, set boundaries that allow you to still be profitable, and make more money than what you did at your corporate job?

No More 9-5. Build a Schedule That
Works For Your Family!

 

TO HAVE A BRAND THAT VIBES WITH YOUR TRIBE & IS INCREDIBLY AUTHENTIC TO WHAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO?
 

Your branding is so incredibly captivating that your dream clients are running through the door and raving about you to all their friends. Your brand is a perfect marriage of your authentic story, and each and every piece of it authentically connects the desires of your life and business.

Complete Alignment of Your
Personal and Professional Story.

 

TO HAVE CAPTIVATING MARKETING PLANS + STREAMLINED WORKFLOWS THAT EXUDE CONNECTION?
 

Your marketing will be EASY, FOCUSED, and POWERFUL, and you will have such efficient systems (or have the money to outsource the things you hate) that you will literally have a business that runs itself so you can do the things you love in your business, like be behind the camera and build irresistible client experiences.

Finally Have The Time To
Connect With Your Clients
 
 

SOLD 35 PIECES of Artwork! Booked 8 Consultations!

 

Ashley has helped me with a clear direction to keep moving forward with my business even during challenging times. She listened to my needs and desires and helped me develop a process to bring them to fruition. I did a live event for my existing artwork and a couple of consults to get my feet wet. My LIVE event produced a few sales but snowballed as I continued sharing what I was doing. Ashley has helped me out of my comfort zone. In the last 6 weeks I have done remote art consults in 4 states for 8 people and sold over 35 pieces of art work. Some fine art pieces up to 6 feet long. I am currently working with multiple people still in the process of buying. Ashley thank you for breaking things down into steps that a busy mama and multi business owner could digest and execute! Thank you for helping me be brave.

I HELP FAITH-FILLED
PHOTOGRAPHERS BLOOM IN THEIR BUSINESSES

After 6 years, $20k months and 3 kids, I started teaching ambitious and hopeful photographers how to revamp their businesses step-by-step, the way I strategically and profitably pivoted mine. As an ex-photographer, MBA, storytelling + SEO expert, I’m {OB-SESSED} with helping others work less, make more and create a life of freedom so they can do whatever the heck they want - like…

  • BE HOME WITH THEIR FAMILIES

  • INVEST IN A COMMUNITY OF LIKEMINDED FRIENDS

  • TRAVEL, EXPLORE & ADVENTURE

  • PAY FOR KID’S ACTIVITIES, LIKE INSANELY EXPENSIVE GYMNASTICS

  • SAVE FOR THE FUTURE OR PAY OFF DEBT

  • BE GENEROUS WITHOUT RESTRAINT

PIECES OF MY STORY MIGHT SOUND FAMILIAR...

I used to be in your shoes. Mini-sessions that didn't book, giveaways with only one entry, dressing my dog up because I had no models...Feeling isolated in the photography industry and like I had to do what everyone else was doing or I would fail.
 

I REMEMBER THOSE FEELINGS. Staying up late after the kids went to bed, consuming all of the education I could or working in-between nap times. Seeing a fruitful vision of the future and feeling like I was being told to step out and take a leap of faith. Being nervous about the investment, and questioning if I was doing the right thing during every pivot or life transition.

 

 

 

 

  • 2009-2010 NEWBIE

    Mastered the art of saturation, extreme angles, and took pictures of my dogs and everyone I knew with a Canon Rebel T1i. Found creepy people on Craigslist to photograph and thankfully can look back because I am alive and didn't get kidnapped.

  • 2011-2012 AUNT ASH

    Finished my MBA, got married, moved to Nashville, started my "Photo Hobby" business, and moved back to Breckenridge, CO. Snaked pictures at all my friend's weddings to build my portfolio and worked 60 hours a week in the corporate world as a banking officer.

  • 2013 MINI SESH PRO

    Got fired for refusing to act unethical (a painful time God used for good), opened my LEGIT photography business, moved to my hometown (Fort Collins, CO), and tried to entice everyone and their roommates to book my $50 Halloween mini-sessions. Charged $350 for normal sessions and made around 10K my first year.

  • 2014 LOVE TOG

    Booked 10 weddings and 25 sessions. Shot weddings 36 weeks pregnant and 4 weeks postpartum. Took my 6 week old to Mexico for a destination wedding. Made 4x what I did my previous year. Achieved a "full-time" salary and LOVED every second of it.

  • 2015 HUSTLER BABY

    Booked 30 weddings, 75 sessions, brought on a videographer and wedding associates. Traveled to Europe + Costa Rica with my 1 year old, heavily branded myself as a "mountain wedding photographer," and got freaking tired. Doubled my income from the prior year.

  • 2016 LOVED THE SCALE

    Significantly raised prices (while scared), booked around 13 weddings and 50 sessions. Dove into a senior rep program, started IPS, had my 2nd daughter, and made even more money than the previous year, but shot around 15 less weddings and 25 less sessions.  

  • 2017 DREAM BUSINESS

    Raised prices again. Booked 11 weddings and around 50 sessions. Full into IPS, took 2nd daughter to Germany during the Fall season without concern, had a flourishing senior rep program. Made more money than the year before and decided I wanted to drop weddings because my life was changing with a growing family.

  • 2018 CLAIMED FREEDOM

    Booked $43K in 15 days, had 27 seniors reps among other numerous clients. Only worked 7 months that year at an average of 2 days a week. Had our 3rd baby, retired from the local industry, and booked $20K in photography coaching clients 2 weeks after having our baby. 

 How to build their business as a ministry through   creating heart-centered marketing plans & building a   business that works for their life and calling. 

 

 

 

$2200+ Sales, Booked 9 Sessions!
Transformed into a storytelling maven...

 

"Ashley's class helped me identify my target client and then tell their story to speak to them. My copy has improved so much. Whether it's just for social media posts or for my website, I'm much more comfortable speaking TO my ideal client. This is an incredibly important part of marketing that I was lacking.”

Update: Developed a brand ambassador program, has been selling $2200+ collections, and conducted a giveaway and booked 9 sessions from it!

Booked 10 Seniors in 10 Days,
$30K+ This Year So Far, Opened a Studio!

 

"I started Stacey Toney Photography in 2018 predominately on a shoot-and-burn model. Local people were really excited, and the buzz around a new business in the area ran by a generally respected local resident lasted about 3 months. I had a great turn out for my underpriced and overworked first stab at the infamous “mini-session.” I had no shows and “can I pay you next pay day” clients, and I didn’t care...One day I was literally sitting and crying about the direction my little business was heading and ready to throw in the towel. I was aimlessly scrolling Facebook and an ad popped up from Ashley June that was promoting her free two week photography business course. I figured I’d give it a shot, bc it’s not like my time was full of sessions. That was in September of 2020. The first meeting I knew that this was meant for me. I was revived in my belief that this business was Godsent, but I just had not been putting in the time and effort. I vowed right then to just jump. The problem was, how do I invest money I don’t have in a program that I have to really sell to my husband? I am also a teacher…one who, at the time, wasn’t utilizing the teaching certificate I had earned...As of today, I have not only scaled my business by focusing on my ideal client, but I have broken the barrier of IPS and taken a running leap into product sales, opened my own studio, launched an INSANELY successful Senior Ambassador program booking 10 seniors in 5 days, and increased my income by about 500% from 2020. To be honest, I have made over double what I made in 2018, 2019, and 2020 combined. I am sitting at $30K right now after closing out at under $6k in 2020…To say that Ashley’s obedience to God has been a blessing to me would be an understatement. Through her, God has literally saved my struggling business and made it thrive."

Booked 13 Sessions Last Month Averaging Between $900-$2,000 Per Client! Opened a Studio!

 

"I can’t say enough good things about Ashley and her Photo Bloom course. Before I found her, I’d been in business for 4 years and was struggling to get inquiries and book clients. I knew my work was good, but something was missing. I joined Ashley’s program and thanks to her, I honed in on my brand persona and finally found the missing piece of the puzzle. We’re all told that we have to define our target client, but no one has ever been able to tell me exactly what it means or how to do it, until now. Since beginning Ashley’s program I now have a defined brand message and am reaching my target market. Less than a year ago I was a shoot & burn photographer, booking 3-4 clients per month at $450/session. My goal when I joined the Photo Bloom was to increase my bookings to 6-8 clients per month and bring in $700/session. I am proud to say that in the past month I have shot 13 sessions, and my last few bookings have ranged from $900-2000 per client. I just opened a studio in my town and am going all-in with IPS thanks to what I’ve learned. I am excited to see what else the future holds! Thank you Ashley for giving me the tools to succeed!​"

Update: Opened a studio + booked 13 sessions last month!

FIRST SALE was OVER $2000 and 10x what she previously sold!

 

"I’ll be honest; I was a skeptic. I feel awkward about “selling,” and I’m an introvert and a BUSY mom who had been trying to fit my business into the corners and cracks of my life. My preferred style of photography is also a bit different than the classic lifestyle/portrait photography session. So I wasn’t sure how all of this would work for me, or if I could even bring myself to try the IPS model. BUT, I wasn’t getting the number or type of clients OR the income that I wanted, so I was willing to give it all a go. I decided that I was going to buckle down and treat my business more like a BUSINESS, and Ashley provided the structure I needed with the Bloom course. I am working through the course slowly (probably slower than most) - but it has already paid for itself! My first sale after starting the course was more than 10X my average sale price before starting the course - and I’m not even done with the course yet! AND, I didn’t spontaneously combust when I tried in-person sales! My first client after implementing the lessons from the course nearly covered the entire cost of the course. And that is just my new beginning! Also, more importantly to me, the Bloom course is helping me to bring my photography business into the forefront, to give it the attention and intention that it deserves. It feels amazing to develop my business in a way that fits “me” - something that fuels me and that I am proud of in a way that my business wasn’t doing before."

"So thankful for Ashley’s course! I was wasting time trying to figure out how to market and run my business. Searching the web was taking me on too many rabbit trails with all the “advice” out there. Ashley’s course takes you step by step from the beginning and you can really go through it as fast or as slow and detailed as you would like. It’s not just a “do this” course, it really is a “here is how to”. Additionally, I love that Ashley is just a message or text or phone call away if I have any questions, she really is committed to her students!"

"I’m so thankful I decided to take the plunge and become one of Ashley June’s signature students and invest in my business! My husband and I knew taking this step would require some major sacrifices but we were convinced it would be completely and utterly worth it. One of the first things Ashley told me was, ‘this girl is going to make it’. She believed in me from the very beginning and had the confidence I desperately needed. Well, I am still pinching myself because exactly one month after I joined The Photo Bloom I completed my first engagement session and made my very first in-person sale of over $600!! So much is unspoken here because Ashley went WAY above and beyond to help me achieve this goal. With her ‘what you see is what you get’. This woman is just as genuine on the inside as she is on the outside. Her heart is for you and the success of your business. Please don’t put off your dreams, if I knew how much peace I’d have now I honestly think I would have joined sooner! I have so much more clarity and vision for my business than I’ve ever had before. My word for 2020 is ‘bloom’ and I couldn’t be more excited!"

"I signed up for Ashley June and her Story and Bloom hoping to improve my business website … But I left with vastly more. I learned how to write specifically for my niche. I learned how to use content to engage web visitors. I was so impressed with her skills and her willingness to share her knowledge. I invested in several of her courses. With her training, I was able to raise $240 for our children’s church and have over $5,000 in sales in only one day and not overwork myself doing it!  I appreciate Ashley June and her ministry, her expertise, and her continued encouragement to fellow Christ believers in the business world. She has a calm and logical method of teaching that truly connected and inspired me. I cannot speak highly enough of her and her courses."

"Taking Ashley's Photo Bloom Course completely changed the way I do business and even helped my personal life too! She taught me how to really sit down and dig deep into who I am, what I want my business to be and how it will serve my clients! She taught me to organize my business properly and build a solid foundation to build upon! She is so organized and has the perfect workflow to keep me on track and get each task done and apply it to my own workflow! Her course taught me how to value myself, my time, and my art! My first sale after converting my business to follow her plan earned nearly 6 times what I would have made before making these changes and I would have never had the confidence to make the changes I NEEDED to make! Thank you so Much Ashley June, I can't wait to see how much more I can grow and BLOOM!"

Booked 10 Client Model Calls & Best Photography Business Decision
EVER Made!

 

"All I can say about Ashley is that she is probably the best decision I have ever made for my photo business. I have a love for a lot of photo subjects and was all over the place regarding specialization field and the business itself. I took a fast paced workshop with Ashley and it became so much easier to organize my time, workflows and tasks. Pricing became super clear. The tools she gives her students are absolutely priceless, it would take me another 20 years in business to figure it out on my own, as I am definitely not a business person myself. I decided to purchase the self paced course, and seriously, it is amazing. I get to have personal sessions with her, feedback and I can do things on my own time. It's been really fantastic and I finally feel like everything is finally more organized and coming together as a business and brand! ❤ SUPER recommended!"

If you've made it this far...I want to ask you a question.

What do you value?

 

We all make purchasing decisions based on our values.

So when you are looking back, 20 years from now, what do you feel like will have the most impact on your family? 


-> That $5/day coffee habit?

-> Those monthly car payments?

-> The expensive weekend getaway?

-> 1-2 Months of mortgage or rent payments?​

-> Expensive trips to Disney?

 

truly ask yourself...
 

-> How much time do you have?
-> What is your time worth? 
-> Can you spend another year re-inventing the wheel? 

-> Do you want to make your business work or not?

-> How many years will you *wait* to see if your business will work out?

-> Are excuses holding you back?


All treasure comes at a cost.
And we need a little help sometimes.

"Taking The Photo Bloom course really helped me to focus in on the tasks that had always been on my ‘someday’ list. I’m a typical DIY’er – thinking that I can teach myself all the things while also doing all the things. However, what was really happening is that all of those important items that were going to help my business grow were task that were just being pushed to the back while the urgent day to day items were dealt with. Through Ashley’s course, I realized that someone walking you through the steps and helping you get out of your own way is the ONLY way to get those ‘someday tasks’ to ‘today tasks’. I was scared to put out content, scared to switch business models and scared to make decisions. Ashley helped me realize that it’s ok to take the risk and created a more confident me to stand by the decisions I was making. I now trust more in my process and my business. I was not a beginner photographer when I started this class. I thought I was charging my worth but after my first sale made 3x what I was making before, I knew that my confidence and my business model was not a reflection of my worth. Thank you Ashley for a great class! Thank you for helping me move out of my way and thank you for changing my business so that I can live the life I want!"

HOW IS THIS DIFFERERENT THAN THE 10,000 Other Photography Products Out There?
 

  • I don't just tell you HOW, I give you PRACTICAL EXAMPLES

    You get templates and examples to facilitate creating your very own marketing plan in an easy to understand way. I show you exactly how I break up marketing tasks to facilitate effective booking plans. 

  • It's an all-inclusive "Business-In-a-Box"

    In my core, I believe that photographers fail to set up a proper foundation in almost every area of their business - and that's exactly why they don't book clients. Or if they do book them, they underwhelm them with lack of customer service and disorganization because they have no systems. The Photo Bloom is an INTENSIVE BUSINESS course which covers each and every aspect of running your business from the accounting, to marketing, to getting that final sale.

  • You get immediate access to all of the content

    I get it, there are some pieces of the course you will want to watch or learn immediately. You will have access to the entire course upon registration. I do recommend though that you absolutely go through the course consecutively to ensure amazing results :). 

  • There's nothing even close to it on the market

    I have put EVERYTHING I know into this course - I have replicated the exact systems I've used in my photography business and reverse engineered them so I could properly educate my students. It has an intentional, consecutive design, so there are NO GAPS, no hidden ways of doing things and it is filled with goldmines of actionable nuggets that will TRANSFORM your business, or help you strategically launch the business of your dreams.

  • You're being taught by an MBA 

    My education has prepared me to be a great business owner and educator. Having a Masters in Business Administration (with an emphasis in Managing for Sustainability), as well as having an undergraduate degree in Business Management - has given me all of the proven results-oriented educational tools and principles that I pass onto you. YUP - take my course and YOU WILL BASICALLY BE GETTING AN MBA EDUCATION!

  • It's a lifetime membership

    I have big plans. I love marketing. I love learning and building businesses. You jump on board with me now, and you get access to all of my future online courses and updates.

Booked 14 Clients From ONE MARKETING CAMPAIGN! Avg. Sale $1300+!

"I found Ashley's program when I was still working full time teaching photography at a public high school, unsure as to when I would be going full time with photography. Shortly after starting the program (around March) both my husband and I received confirmation from the Lord that it was to be my last year teaching and I would move into full time photography after finishing out the year. image.gifI was excited, but it was a little nerve-wracking and surreal. I would have had NO IDEA where to start if I hadn't decided to do the Photo Bloom program with Ashley! It helped me set a proper foundation, make sure I was setting things up correctly as a business and giving my clients the proper experience. The photography part I knew I could handle....but that business part is another story. How would I start getting clients and letting people know I exist and that they need my services? (I am a very specialized niche of custom boutique pet & equine photography). Since starting the program this past spring, I built my business on a strong foundation, booked my first clients and now in October have a fully booked schedule. My average sale per client that I have had so far is about $1300. When my first client ever exceeded my goal of $1600 per client I was beyond encouraged that this IS something I can do. I decided to schedule holiday themed mini sessions for October. With Ashley's coaching and following the marketing calendar outlined in the program I fully booked ALL 11 of my sessions plus one additional by the last day of Pre-Registration. From that I also booked 2 regular sessions... so that's 14 clients total from that campaign. Needless to say, the initial investment I made in this program has been WELL worth it."

Q: Can you guarantee I will be successful?

A: My greatest desire and my heart of hearts is for you to kill it in your business. But, I really can't guarantee that you will make it. I wish I could - but, if you trust my processes, follow my systems, and work your butt off - there is NO REASON why you won't be successful. At the end of the day, there is no replacement for hard-work. This is a season of planting so you can BLOOM. This is an intensive course for serious photographers looking to make a serious change. It takes courage though - and it takes times. There is no quick fix, but if you're looking to stay in the industry long-term, this will absolutely transform your life.

How long does the self-guided course take?

A: If you are dedicated to the process, the course will take about 2-3 months to complete if you are following the prompts and consecutively dedicated to working through the course. 

Q: What type of photographer is this course for?

A: Wedding + Portrait photographers - this course is your jam. This was designed for you. At the end of the day, the core is the same for any type of photography business. I make several references to both the wedding and portrait industries, so you will absolutely benefit no matter what type of photography you specialize in. I also have clients in several different niches including newborn, boudoir, wildlife, landscape, underwater photography, family, senior, wedding, branding, engagement, couples, western, etc. 

Q: I can't afford it - I have other debt and expenses to worry about.

A: Hey, I get it. I am the queen of DIY and being resourceful. But as I got busier in my life, investing in education so I could have quick and strategic results was the best pay (and time!) raise I ever got. This course will pay for itself if you apply the principles correctly with 1-2 sales. The real question is - can you afford NOT to change your business? Literally, if you keep operating like you have been, you will lose way more money in the short term and long term. Remember - high-interest car payments, rent/mortgage payments, $5/day coffee habits - it's where your priorities and values lie. Your clients will be demanding a premium service, and they will want to invest with someone who has invested in themselves. 

Q: Do you offer refunds? 

A: I don't. My stuff is great - I'm teaching you everything I know about business (which is from legit hard-earned experience and a formal Masters in Business Administration education). If you are hitting roadblocks though and feeling lost, I am absolutely here as a resource in that scenario. Please reach out - I am here to serve you and help you get on the right track if you're questioning your investment. 

 

Please don't invest unless you are serious about your growth. You are also responsible for the whole investment if you choose the payment plan option. I want you to be successful, and you have to be committed in order to achieve the results you desire. It's truly a huge deal that you are invested in the process and understand that this season is for planting.

Q: What if I get behind?

A: My students work at all different paces. If you get behind, no worries. You can re-audit the next round of group coaching as well as future rounds for free, so there really isn't an urgency. I find it best to offer my students extended support, and want them to feel helped when needed.

Q: I'm an experienced photographer - will this course actually benefit me?

A: YES + YES. You are in a position where something isn't working. I find this to be a foundation and execution issue - this course has the ability to transform your life and set up your business better than you could have imagined. It's honestly a perfect fit for established photographers who are really looking to scale!

Q: I just opened my business - will this course help me know what I need to do?

A: Yup! We have a whole phase dedicated to the business basics, like accounting, legal structure, contracts, sales tax and more. It couldn't get any more simple and strategic, and the fact that you get to start off on such solid footing will jumpstart your business and allow you to grow much quicker. 

Q: I'm too busy right now - is this a good time to take the course?

A: This is actually the perfect time to take the course. Being busy, but not being where you want to be (or making the money you need) is a great motivation for starting. Even if you can't dive into the whole course right away - there are so many actionable, results-oriented pieces that you can apply immediately. 

Q: What's the benefit of group coaching if I get access to the Unstoppable Bloom Academy?

A: I love group coaching - you get to build a network and community of photographers to grow with throughout the years. You truly get to become a team and support one another in the industry. Group coaching allows me to do LIVE TRAININGS with our team several times a month, as well as gives you individual access to me on a regular basis for several months while you're implementing new techniques. It's the perfect way to nurture your business growth with a support system. If you can't attend a live training, we record all of the sessions and you will have access to those videos (as well as the course in general). The academy meets in the late fall and mid-to late spring every year. 

Q: Is this only for IPS photographers?

A: No! I teach IPS in full in the course, but you can pick and choose what you want to implement. More so, the marketing strategy and customer experience is what you will focus on in your own business. That's the beauty of it! Whether you are an IPS or Shoot & Burn Photographer, this course will transform your business.

Q: Is this only for women?

A: No! Most of my clients are women, but I find having a male perspective in our group very interesting and helpful. As long as you can handle the girl talk.

Q: How soon can I start?

A: ASAP! When you register, you will receive full access to the Signature Course. You can get started as soon as you want. Plus, you have access to the last round of replays from previous application calls from our last Academy to get going, so you could start whenever you would like or run at whatever pace fits best for you.

"Ashley has been an amazing resource for my business! I have been in business for several years but she has brought a new level of service, workflow and overall client experience to my brand. Her course has helped me reach more of my ideal clients and has more than doubled my inquiry to booking ratio. I'm excited to see where else my business develops as I continue Ashley's amazing course!"

Booked Out Christmas Mini Sessions ​+ Took a Leap of Faith!

"I first started following Ashley in June 2019 and was skeptical of how her programs worked and how it would be any different from what others were offering/promising. I had been burned by a previous business course to the point where it almost ruined my business early 2019. I followed Ashley's tips, tricks, and previous students for a couple months before deciding to buy her Facebook Ads Training Course. Within the first page of instructions I already figured out where I was hitting roadblocks and her training helped to clarify the process for me. I ran a very small ad based off of her tools and instructions and was able to fully book my Christmas minis. Fast forward another month and Ashley opened up her Bloom Course for Photographers. At first I was thinking I'll wait until she runs it again because of this, that and the other.... Well the more I thought about it and the more I heard from previous students I kept feeling like I couldn't walk away, I should act now if I want anything to change. So I did it. I took what you could call "a leap of faith" and I said sign me up. While the course is seemingly large when you start, once you get into it and start applying the tools it REALLY works. I have just now finished the course, all training videos and am implementing all of the tools to get started so I haven't had what you call any big or consistent sales yet. You can take on clients with Ashley's tools in the Bloom Course while you are learning, there is nothing that says you can't but I personally did not want to take on clients while learning and doing the course until I was confident in the steps/legal aspect of running my business. The biggest thing I have learned is the legal aspects of running a business. I was running a legal business before buy my goodness was I missing some vital information that would have been so helpful when I started my business 4 years ago. It has made some steps of mine a lot easier to manage. So it can be little things that you learn or huge things but either way this is not some course that'll show you how to make big money, fast. It shows you how to really run a legal and sustainable business while doing what you love."
