Would you love to run a joyful, profitable & big-hearted photography business?

A business that fits around your own busy life. One that delights both yourself and your clients.

You love photographing families.
You just wish running your own business wasn't so damn hard. 

There is SO much information out there. You just don't know who to listen to or where to start. 

You just wish someone would take you by the hand and show you exactly what to do and in which order.  

“Without doubt the best investment ever. Vicki’s business & marketing knowledge is wonderful, and she is so open and willing to share and help. Worth every penny and more!”

Christine Burns Photography

“Vicki is so warm and open about all aspects of her business. The content of the course covers everything –and more – than I ever imagined. I’m now inspired and motivated to take my business to the next level.”

Clare Walpole Photography

“Brilliant!! Lots of positive ideas to kick my business into shape. I now have a clear focus on what I want and need to get done to improve my business. So often I’ve walked away from a course feeling a bit let down. You have over-delivered on the promises you made. Thank you.”

Alex Bray Photography

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • You’re panicking as you’re currently staring at a nearly empty diary for the year and you have no idea where the bookings are going to come from.
  • You’re overwhelmed with all of the conflicting information and business advice available and don’t know where to start.
  • You know you’re not charging enough to be profitable, but you’re scared to put your prices up in case no-one ever books you again!
  • You keep hearing that you need to do in-person sales to make a success out of family photography, but you just don’t want to do it. You’d love to make more out of online galleries, but you just don’t know how.
  • You’re feeling burnt out, you’re spending too much time working and not enough time with your family, friends or looking after yourself. And you’re not making enough money to make it worthwhile.
  • Marketing scares you and feels a bit slimy. You just don’t know where to start….website, Instagram, Facebook advertising, networking, mailing list…..aaaarrgghh!

Can you relate to any (if not all!) of these?

I totally understand. 

I have had most of these worries and struggles at some point in the 12 years that I’ve run my photography business.

Through investment in training, reading a ton of business books and experimenting, I’ve learnt strategies and techniques to get me to the point I’m at now….running a profitable business, shooting what I love, whilst having a balanced life with time for me, my friends and my family.

Would you love me to take you by the hand and show you exactly what I’ve learnt? Would you love a simple to follow, step by step guide for what you need to do to run a thriving family photography business that suits you and your life?

 

About Vicki

I've been running my own thriving photography business since 2008.

I've had 12 years to experiment with different strategies and techniques in my business, to make it the thriving business that it is today.

I've been doing 1-2-1 training with photographers for the past 7 years and have ran my Delight Retreats & workshops since 2016 to rave reviews. I also co-host the leading podcast for people photographers, Shoot Edit Chat Repeat. 

My work has been internationally published and I've spoken at Europe's largest photography conference a number of times. 

Prior to setting up my photography business, I had a 10 year career working in the advertising/sales/marketing industry. I'm obsessed with business and psychology, I'm trained in NLP (Neuro-linguistics programming) and success coaching.

I believe that my career in marketing & sales, my 12 years of running a successful photography business and my coaching training, gives me the perfect experience to help you make your business the success you dream of.  

I take all of this experience and knowledge, and share with you my strategies and techniques that I know work in a family photography business.

Vicki was extremely generous with her knowledge, skillfully sharing the techniques and thought-processes behind how she runs her business. I would recommend working with Vicki in any capacity in a heartbeat. ”

“I have admired Vicki’s photography for some time and been an avid listener to her podcast. Vicki was so generous with her knowledge and expertise she has developed over the years. I am kicking myself I didn’t attend sooner. I can see why she delights all her clients… her customer experience approach and attention to detail are inspiring. I left with a new found energy to develop my business to work for me and amaze my clients. Thank you so much Vicki. ”

FAQ

You've got questions? Great, I've got answers!

  • What actually is a group training program?

    You'll have access to all of the training content so you can go through it, and complete the worksheets in your own time. You'll be able to ask any questions you have within the course itself and check in twice a week to answer any questions you have. Then during the 6 week period, we will have 5 live calls via Zoom. Here are can get to know each other, I can help with anything your struggling and it makes you accountable.

  • What if I can't make the live Zoom calls?

    All 5 calls will take place on different days and at different times of the day, to suit all time zones and schedules. So hopefully you'll be able to attend at least a couple of them live. But don't worry if not, you can send your questions to me in advance, I will answer them on the call and the calls will be recorded for you to listen to in your own time.

  • How much time do I need to dedicate to the training each week?

    The program is designed to be spread over 6 weeks, so that you have time to implement the strategies and processes into your own business. You will have lifetime access to all of the course content, so if you are away for some of the time, or get behind, you don't need to worry. Ideally you would invest around 3-4 hours of your time to the program each week, in order to get the most out of it. That involves completing worksheets and taking time to action the learnings within your business. The more time you are able to invest in the course each week, and actioning the steps in your business, the more you will get out of it.

  • I haven't started my business yet, can I still take the program?

    The program involves some advanced strategies, but there is no reason at all why you can't join. It's a great idea to start your business right, straight from the beginning. I wish a program like this had been available when I started my business back in 2008!

  • I've been in business for a long time, but struggling to make a success of it. Will this program still be suitable for me?

    Yes definitely. I have been through this program with photographers who have been in business for over a decade, and they've all seen brilliant results. If your business is struggling in one area, there is usually a reason why. This program will help you get to the bottom of what that is, and get your business to where you want it to be.

  • Can I share the cost of the program and the login with a friend?

    No, I'm afraid not, thank you for checking. The fee covers one user login for the course content, and one person on the live group training calls.

  • Is there any follow up support?

    You'll have my support within the course during the program, and on the 5 live group training calls during the 6 weeks. You will also get lifetime access to my Delight Alumni Facebook group, where me and my previous Delight students will be available for support and advice.

  • When does the group program start?

    The beta run of the programme started in June. I will be launching the programme again in September. Doors will be opening in early September.

  • Can I just start the course at any time?

    No, as this is a live group training program. I am running it this way, so that you have the support of a group to keep you accountable and I can support you along the way. I don't want this to be just another online course that you never finish! My first program is starting on 8 June 2020, and I will be running another live program in the autumn of 2020.
