Meet your Instructor:

Kelley Williams

I've been where you are friend. I was scrolling through instagram seeing beautiful weddings but having no idea how to reach those luxury clients or connect with vendors. Styled shoots seemed like a mystery and so intimating! I took the leap and organized my first styled shoot which completely revolutionized my business! Over the years, I've made a lot of mistakes and learned a lot along the way. In this course I take all the knowledge and skills I've learned from creating over 30+ styled shoots to teach you how to elevate your brand and grow your business!

If publication is your goal... I got you!

We have an entire lesson dedicated to submitting your shoot! Here are just a few of the places I've been published

So you have some questions?

Here are the facts!

  • How long will I have access to the content? Will the course expire?

    This course does not expire and you will have lifetime access. So what does that mean exactly? It means this deal just got even better. Over time lessons will be added and updated and you get access to it all! I want you to always have this content, so if you join now, it’s yours forever!

  • How long is the course? I’m super busy right now!

    As an entrepreneur we are being pulled in so many different directions, but if we really want to grow then we have to put in the work. This course is led for 8 weeks twice a year with check-ins and accountability, but we know that life happens which is why you can access all parts of the course at any time and get lifetime access. You can go at your own pace but I’ve found that many students like going through the course as a group.

  • How should I work through the course?

    Each lesson in the course builds on each other. Part 1 is the foundation of your brand and ideal client. Part 2 is figuring out your budget, timeline, contracts, etc. and Part 3 is all about marketing your shoot. You will have access to all the lessons but I encourage you to go in order for the biggest impact.

  • I’ve already bought courses, what makes this one different?

    What makes this course really special is that it takes you step by step through the entire process of planning, executing, and publishing a styled shoot from beginning to end. We have accountability built into the led course with the facebook group.

  • This is a big investment, how do I know I’ll get results?

    I firmly believe that any growth you make in your business will come at a cost. Maybe it's investing in a mentor, a workshop, or in this case a course. If you are not ready to grow your business, connect with your ideal clients and vendors then this course is not for you. This course will ask you to work. If you don’t do the work, you won’t get results, but if you DO the work, like in any investment, you will get results.

  • How is the content delivered? I’m worried that I won’t learn the way I like to learn best.

    Content is delivered through video lessons but also powerpoint slides, worksheets, guides, templates, facebook community, and zoom calls. I like to think we have a little bit for everyone to get what they need!
