It's time to Level Up, Pup!
Running a profitable, sustainable, and goal-smashing business should be fun! I help photographers get out of their own way, refine their pricing and processes, and up-level their photography business on their terms through support, strategies, and systems.
Do You Find Yourself...
Inundated with the many components of running a business?
Do you know you need better processes, but the thought of adding more to your to-do list or learning a new system feels overwhelming?
Struggling with products and pricing?
Are your prices based on feelings or facts? Are you offering products you love or are you blindly mirroring what you see others offering?
Longing to provide an incredible client experience?
Are you ready to enhance the value of working with you? Do you wonder what exactly that means to your clients?
My straightforward, structured, and seamless approach will allow you to:
Hi, I'm Jessica!
I'm an enneagram 3w2 and a lover of automation, efficiency, and...macarons!
As a six-figure photographer, I help other photographers refine their pricing and processes so they can master the client experience and cultivate a profitable and successful photography business on their own terms.
As an instructor and coach within the Flourish Academy's Elevate Program, my specific coaching focus is concentrated on in-person sales (IPS), pricing, products, mindset, client management, client experience, automation, and Dubsado as a Certified Dubsado Specialist.
I am also among the expert panel of pet photographers and a recommended coach with The Pet Photographers Club and a guest instructor and Academy Ambassador for the Hair of The Dog Academy.
But You Can Call Me...
I've been called an IPS Jedi master, the pet calendar contest queen, a pricing guru...and a fur-covered magic-maker, but you'll also know me as:
- Your accountability ally.
- Your partner in profitability.
- An open book on systems and strategies.
- Your GPS navigation on the path to bold action.
- Your biggest cheerleader—because your success is my success!
My purpose is to not only inspire you to up-level your business but to provide you with the support, strategies, and systems to do so easily. Whether we're getting you out of your own head with pricing, implementing or improving workflow, or crafting a one-of-a-kind client experience, I am here for you. (You don't even need to lint-roll the dog hair off your clothes.)

“Jes has been a blessing to me and so many photographers. Her understanding and knowledge have been a great resource for me and my photography business! I've had one of the most profitable months ever and it is mostly because of advice she had given me almost seven months ago. Thank you for living 'community over competition!'”
Dan Quigley of Quigley Photography
"Jessica is an amazing photographer, but more than that she is the most organized person I have ever met. You will have a seamless process working with Jessica and she is so kind and willing to share her time and efforts when you need her. Jes mentored me on a bunch of business coaching issues revolving around processes, workflow, and pricing and I came away as a better businessman for it. She is fantastic. I highly recommend working with Jessica if you have the opportunity. Thanks so much again, Jes!"
Jess Waychoff of BellaReese Photography
