i’m Jennifer
your new business mentor!
With nearly a decade of experience running a successful photography business, Jennifer Mae Photography and a business degree from Wright State University, I’m passionate about helping fellow photographers build sustainable, thriving businesses. Over the past 10 years, I’ve navigated the challenges of growing a photography brand, mastering client relationships, and developing effective marketing strategies.
My background in business, combined with hands-on experience, uniquely positions me to mentor and guide photographers, providing them with the tools and insights needed to achieve long-term success in the industry.
FOCUS FORWARD WITH ME
Starting a photography business requires more than just a passion for capturing beautiful images; it demands a focus-forward mindset. It’s about envisioning your goals, overcoming challenges, and continuously evolving. From building your brand to connecting with clients, every step forward is a chance to grow. By staying committed to your vision and embracing change, you’re not just photographer—you’re crafting a sustainable photography business. Know that with me as your mentor, we’ll keep focusing forward together.
As photographers, there are so many layers to start and run a business. We wear so many hats…. and it can be very overwhelming. That’s why I take a focus forward mindset approach. Not every photographer is coming from the same spot, and not every photographer has the same end goal. Here’s some things I can help with!
1.1 mentoring
01. BRANDING
Create consistency within your brand from start to finish and implementing an experience that makes you stand out.
02. BUSINESS WORKFLOWS
Creating workflows will really help you maximize your time, keep you organized, and bring your business to the next level.
03. website | SEO
Your most powerful marketing tool is your website. It should be visually appealing and easy to navigate.
04. marketing strategies
Effective marketing is essential for photographers to attract their ideal clients and grow their business.
05. PRICING & PROFIT
Ensuring your CODB aligns with your current pricing is a must if you want to run a sustainable and profitable business.
06. SHOOTING & LIGHTING
I’m a natural light photographer. Natural light doesn’t mean light and airy – so no matter what your editing style I can help you master your camera, set up, and lighting.
07. EDITING & CULLING
For most photographers they spend most their time on editing and culling. Let’s target any frustrations you have, and create presets and workflows to save you time.
08. SALES & DELIVERY
Want to offer more than just digitals? Let me show you how without doing in person sales.
