Welcome
You’re a passionate photographer who knows there could be more...
WHETHER YOU ARE...
01
A Portrait photographer on the always-need-to-be-finding-new-clients treadmill (perhaps struggling to market yourself), shooting first and then praying for the sale after
02
A wedding photographer looking to replace the lucrative seasonal income but unsociable hours with more consistent cashflow and profitable income within family friendly hours!
03
Tired of feeling like you are just not quite making it and you are ready to finally build a business that serves the lifestyle you feel you deserve for all your hard work
04
Looking to diversify as you know that Personal branding is a growing market with the rise of social media and more and more businesses transitioning to online models
You’re in the right place and I am going to tell you exactly how having me in your corner can give you the tools, inspiration and guidance on your journey to creating your dream business.
but guess what
in the early parts of my career this was me! I used to work ever so hard, spinning my tail shooting portraits mid week and weddings on the weekend, only to do silly things like discount my packages, give away free hours, pages in albums or free prints in sales sessions, and sometimes make little or no sales at all on my portraits.
All this heartache because at the bottom of it all, I really didn’t value my craft (OR MYSELF) and really didn’t understand the value of what I was creating for others.
Breakthrough is a step-by-step mentoring & implementation program created by me - a working professional photographer - that shows you the exact blueprint I use to attract and pre-sell intelligently priced personal brand packages, how to create systems to save your time and build a tribe of loyal repeat clients, ALL with support & community to push past your blocks and barriers that may have slowed you down so far.

I'm Paula, your new accountability buddy.
After 22 years as a working professional photographer, I’ve experienced first hand what it feels like to make the switch from demanding weddings & portraits to the high-profit and relatively easier hours of a Personal Branding Business Model.
I now shoot 6 full days per month often with $15k+ revenue days and say no to weekends and work that simply doesn't light me up.
Hey there!
It cost a lot to get me here...
I am sad to admit this, but I missed out on alot of my daughters younger life, I was always working weekends and then editing late into the nights to keep up.
Over the years I spent tens of thousands of dollars and way too many hours to count trying to figure out how to get more time back (ironically) and ultimately make more profit from my photography.
I now get to clock-off when my daughter gets home from school, say no to working any weekends and I am much more present in all areas of my life.
But i LEARNT THE HARD WAY
Here is where it pays to learn from someone who has gone before you.
I know where most creatives tend to bury their head in the sand, so that is why I created this program like I did. This is not fluffy top shelf stuff, it is designed so you to focus on what matters, increasing your profitability whilst saving you time.
This is a complete business renovation from the ground up so that you put in place the systems & zero in on the 3 biggest areas that will help you kick those two goals... Effective Marketing, Sales Processes & Automations.
Yes these are not sexy topics, but I promise to make it palatable and most of all I make it actionable. This is called an implementation program for a reason, cause I don't want you just listening in your car. I teach you why, give you the tools, you take what resonates and make them your own & then plug everything you learn into your business so it can start working for you!
Once you are in it is hard to shake me! Getting you results is my highest value, so to keep you motivated, moving forward and overcome the speed bumps that may slow you down, I have made monthly calls with me part of this program - for as long as I am running it - at no additional cost.
I know that what I teach is not second nature, and a lot of what you need to overcome is often going on inside, your mindset & internal blocks. So in this community I get to know YOU so I can tailor my advice and the monthly workshops to support you where I know you need it.
You can expect additional training on subjects like money blocks, marketing planning, goal setting and even website reviews.
I am an open book, so I often share the backend of my business to show you what is working for me, to inspire and educate you in real time.
This program includes everything you need to set yourself up
You get all the moving parts - a literal business blueprint - to make your business run successfully + additional support. But I can only take you so far.
I need you to make the decision NOW to make this your year. I need you to make a commitment - not to me - but to yourself...
Create the business you need to serve your life (not you serve it)
Get proactive so that your time spent on marketing will deliver the right number of quality leads
Learning how to confidently pre-sell your packages, so you know you are in profit before you lift your camera
Running a lean and mean back of house to ensure more time for creativity and spontaneity
Embrace sharing more of you to cultivate closer relationships and community with clients who love what you do
Feeling more balanced, and rested, and in alignment with what you're wanting to create for your life.
