WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY MENTORING 

Wedding Photography Workshop in the Hudson Valley

You don’t have to do this alone.

Hi there! I'm Diane, and after 15 wonderful years of photographing weddings, I'd love to share what I've learned with fellow photographers who are passionate about this craft.

A Bit About My Journey

Over the years, I've had the privilege of documenting hundreds of beautiful love stories.

My work has appeared in various publications, and I've been fortunate to receive recognition through awards along the way. But what truly matters to me is creating authentic images that couples will treasure forever—and helping other photographers do the same.

Why you might be ready for Wedding Photography Mentoring:

  • How to photograph large wedding parties or families

    This is one of the most essential parts of your job as a wedding photographer, and it is usually given the least amount of time. How do you prepare for an unruly wedding party or a family that doesn’t get along?

  • How to use flash on a dance floor

    As a wedding photographer, you are faced with a variety of reception venues, from dark barns to cavernous industrial spaces, beautiful ballrooms, and, yes, outside with no lighting. How do you use off-camera lights, on-camera flash, and continuous lighting?

  • My website sucks! What can I do to improve it?

    Are you effectively presenting yourself, showing your best work, and finding the right clients? How do you get seen when there are so many photographers out there?

  • Confused about pricing?

    Packages or no packages? What should you charge? How do I make a plan for increasing my prices over time?

Beyond the Hour: Why One Mentoring Session Is Just the Beginning

One hour can spark inspiration, but true growth needs more room to breathe. A single mentoring session barely scratches the surface if you are just starting out or you’re feeling stuck.

During our initial hour together, we can identify key areas for development and plant the seeds for improvement. However, the most meaningful transformations in your photography journey happen through consistent guidance and ongoing feedback.

Complex lighting techniques require practice and refinement. Good composition and getting comfortable shooting through a scene takes practice. Business strategies need time to implement and adjust. Portfolio development is an evolving conversation. And those editing skills you're hoping to elevate? They deserve more than a rushed overview.

The photographers who experience the most significant growth commit to regular mentoring relationships where we can:

  • Build on concepts introduced in previous sessions

  • Review your implementation of new techniques

  • Adapt strategies as your skills and business evolve

  • Celebrate your progress and recalibrate goals

Consider the first hour as the foundation – a valuable starting point that reveals what's possible.

But if you're serious about elevating your craft, let's discuss how a sustained mentoring relationship can provide the comprehensive support your photographic journey truly deserves.

I offer single sessions, a package of six (over a 3 month period) or package of 12 (over a 6 month period).
