Build a family photography portfolio that attracts the right clients. This lesson shows you how to choose a clear portfolio direction, plan a small set of “anchor sessions,” and use model calls in a smart way—so you can charge something, include a limited number of images.

This lesson demonstrates a complete baby portrait edit from start to finish. You’ll follow my workflow in Photoshop for detailed retouching, then move into Lightroom for final adjustments—refining contrast, colour, and saturation to create a clean, natural, finished look.

Learn the exposure triangle in a simple, practical way. This course breaks down shutter speed, aperture, and ISO so you understand what the numbers mean, how they affect your image, and which setting to change first. You’ll also learn what “stops” are (in plain English), follow a quick step-by-step method for setting exposure, and practice with guided tests in set.a.light v3 so it finally clicks.

In this short, practical course, we’ll look at how family photographers can create more value before, during, and after a session.

In this course, you’ll learn how to explain the importance of styling to clients in a way that feels helpful, kind, and professional. We’ll look at examples of coordinated and uncoordinated outfits, discuss how clothing affects visual flow, and break down simple language you can use when guiding families before their session.
