Testimonials

"For wedding photographers who have just dipped their toes into entrepreneurship and want a mentor in their corner for the launch of their brand or growth periods where brand adjustment is not only needed but necessary, inquire with Jackie. She's been through most, if not every step, you'll encounter, and can help you through it through gentle coaching, reassurance, and experience-based learning.

I booked my first wedding client at a rate that successfully makes me feel valued as a wedding photographer. They also happen to be dream clients who have a vision that fits in so well with my brand."

"100/10 would recommend! Jackie makes feels like a friend and creates a hands on experience so there's no questions left behind. I always felt supported and not only walked away with more knowledge but also was able to receive my own headshot/branding session from Jackie + a styled shoot and so much more! Forever grateful for you Jackie!

You went above and beyond, helping me achieve my goals + giving extra support when I reached out with questions and helping me with confidence."

Testimonials

“Jacqueline has been an amazing connection for me to have, having just begun my film photography journey. We had an initial 1 hour Skype session to lay a framework for me in my first few months of learning and implementing film into my business, not only did she take time to thoroughly answer all of my questions but she also made sure to forward me the entire slideshow of information so I can easily refer back. 

I love how personalized she made our session. Jaqueline took the time to look at my portfolio and recommend specific film types and film presets (for digital work) that best match my style of shooting. She goes above and beyond and really makes your experience one that is tailored to your needs!"

Testimonials

"Honestly, I went in expecting a lot and this workshop provided even more than that. I liked how professional it all was. More importantly, Jackie, you are just a wealth of knowledge and genuinity. You are also very patient and willing to be flexible, so I highly appreciated that. You didn’t make me feel dumb for asking questions and you are just so down to earth.

My only regret is that it ended so soon because it was so beautifully crafted by an absolutely professional. Thank you so much for everything and I wish you best!"
