INTRODUCING
The untamed creative mentorship program
This is a four-week, intimate mentorship program for photographers in the early stages of their business who want real guidance, confident direction, and consistent bookings without losing their passion along the way.
Through the mentorship, you’ll learn how to shoot with confidence, price yourself properly, attract aligned clients, and build momentum in a way that feels exciting, sustainable, and true to you.
No hustle culture.
No overwhelm.
Just clear support + honest mentorship from someone who’s built & scaled multiple successful photography businesses, teaching you everything I wish I knew when I first started.
What you will learn
WEEK 1
FOUNDATIONS & CLARITY
We start by building your foundation the right way so you’re not guessing or piecing things together from Instagram advice.
You’ll gain clarity on your direction, ideal clients, pricing basics, and what actually matters in the early stages of your photography business.
• defining your niche and shooting style
• understanding your camera settings and light
• creating a simple editing workflow
• setting up pricing with confidence
• identifying what to focus on first
This week removes the overwhelm.
WEEK 2
CONFIDENT SHOOTING & POSING
This is where everything clicks behind the camera. You’ll learn how to lead sessions with confidence, pose naturally, and direct clients without feeling awkward or unsure.
• how to pose couples naturally
• guiding clients who feel stiff or nervous
• creating movement and connection
• building flow during sessions
• showing up as the authority
You stop hoping the shoot goes well and start knowing it will.
WEEK 3
BOOKINGS, PRICING & VISIBILITY
Now we focus on turning your skills into paid work.
You’ll learn how inquiries happen, how to convert them, and how to start filling your calendar with aligned clients.
• pricing that makes sense and feels good
• what to say when clients inquire
• booking workflows and contracts
• how to market without dancing online
• simple strategies to attract consistent bookings
This is where momentum builds.
WEEK 4
SUSTAINABLE GROWTH & LONGEVITY
The final week is about building forward.
You’ll learn how to grow intentionally, protect your energy, and create a business that supports your life instead of running it.
• boundaries that prevent overworking
• structuring your schedule realistically
• knowing when to say yes or no
• planning your next 3–6 months
• creating momentum that lasts
You leave with direction, confidence, and a clear path ahead.
The students are just like you
Before
You love photography, but building the business side of it feels lonely.
You’re watching other photographers book out while you’re piecing things together on your own.
You’re second-guessing your pricing, your style, your posts, your next move.
You need real guidance, feedback, and someone in your corner. You’re craving a deeper community.
And honestly? You’re tired of trying to figure everything out alone.
After
You’re no longer guessing.
You’re inside a small, intentional hybrid mentorship where everyone is building at the same pace. Asking the same questions, celebrating the same wins, and moving forward together.
You have:
• a seasoned mentor guiding you step by step
• weekly group calls that build connection
• a private community chat for support between sessions
• real-time feedback when you feel stuck
• friendships with photographers who actually get it
You stop spiralling.
You start executing.
And instead of wondering “am I doing this right?” you finally feel confident in your direction.
WHAT’S included IN THE mentorship
Expert mentorship
You’re being mentored by a photographer who has built multiple successful photography businesses, won Best Photographer & Studio six years in a row, and understands exactly what it takes to book consistently in the real world.
You get clear direction, honest feedback, and real answers.
WEEKLY ACTION PLANS
Each week focuses on one core area of building a profitable photography business.
We cover:
• pricing and packages that actually sell
• getting bookings without begging on Instagram
• branding and positioning that attracts aligned clients
• systems that simplify your workflow
• confidence in sales conversations
• building momentum without overworking
Everything is taught step by step, so you’re not overwhelmed, just moving forward.
PRIVATE MENTORSHIP COMMUNITY
You’ll get:
One weekly group mentorship call (4 in total) and one personal 1:1 call with Katie each week.
This is where clarity happens fast.
You can ask questions, workshop your offers, get feedback on pricing or messaging, and receive personalized guidance from Katie individually, while still being supported by a small group of creatives walking the same path.
LIVE GROUP CALLS + 1:1 SUPPORT
You’ll have access to a private group space with your fellow mentees for the full four weeks.
This is where you can:
• ask questions between calls
• get feedback in real time
• share wins and challenges
• connect with photographers at the same stage as you
You’re building alongside people who understand exactly what this season feels like.
LIVE SHOOT EXPERIENCE
You’ll be guided through real photo shoots to see how everything comes together in practice.
This includes:
• posing direction in real time
• shooting with confidence and intention
• understanding how to lead clients naturally
• workflow and editing insight
You won’t just learn what to do, you’ll see it in action.
FOUNDING MEMBER BONUSES
As part of the first Untamed Creative cohort, you’ll receive exclusive perks not available in future rounds.
Including:

MEET YOUR MENTOR, KATIE.
I help photographers build profitable & soul-aligned businesses without burning themselves out trying to get there.
Hi, I’m Katie.
I’ve built multiple photography businesses from the ground up that won awards, got featured in massive publications, booked out consistently and was named Best Photographer (and studio) in Hamilton six years in a row, but none of that came without lessons.
I know what it’s like to chase bookings, underprice your work, say yes to everything, and slowly lose the joy that made you pick up a camera in the first place.
Through Untamed Creative, I mentor photographers who are ready to stop guessing and start building with clarity, confidence, and intention.
My approach blends real-world business strategy with intuitive leadership, mindset work, and grounded systems so your success doesn’t come at the cost of your creativity or your nervous system.
This isn’t hustle culture. It’s sustainable growth, done your way.

You’re a newer photographer or within your first few years of business
You’re a lifestyle, maternity, couples, family, branding or wedding photographer (or looking to become one)
You want help building strong foundations early that last
You feel unsure about pricing and second guess what to charge
You want to feel confident in your work & when talking about your prices
You want REAL mentorship & intimate guidance from someone who’s already done it, not just another online course
You want cozy, comfortable daily/weekly chats & zoom hangs with a group of humans that just get it
You feel lost and unsure of what to prioritize next in your biz
You’re still working another job but hope to go full-time with photography one day
You want to learn how to attract soul-aligned clients & create a safe space for them to feel comfortable in front of the lens
You need clarity around pricing, packages, shooting, editing & workflows
You want to learn how to take better photos & have more confidence at shoots
You want 1:1 coaching AND a community/group environment
You’re ready to take your business seriously and level up financially, mentally & spiritually
Umm, this might not be for you if...

Looking for a passive DIY course you can watch and forget
You’re looking for presets, templates, or shortcuts instead of learning how to build strong foundations

You’ve already been running a fully booked photography business for many years and are looking for advanced scaling or team-building strategy
You’re a seasoned professional seeking high-level automation, outsourcing, or multi-six-figure expansion
You’re already booking consistently at premium pricing and don’t need foundational guidance
You’re primarily looking for technical camera education rather than business mentorship
You don’t want to level up and are comfortable playing it safe and sporadically booking
You’re seeking boudoir-specific education or studio boudoir training
(this mentorship focuses on weddings, couples, and foundational photography business growth. I do not offer any training or guidance in Boudoir Photography at this time)
THIS MENTORSHIP IS INTENTIONALLY LIMITED to only 5 PHOTOGRAPHERS
This mentorship is not designed to be a large program or a scalable course.
It’s built to offer real mentorship that gives time, presence, and genuine investment into each person inside it.
By keeping the cohort small, I’m able to:
• meet with each mentee one-on-one every week
• provide personalized guidance based on your exact stage of business
• review your work, pricing, and offers in real time
• offer meaningful feedback you can immediately apply
• stay actively involved throughout the full four weeks
• ensure no one gets lost, overlooked, or left behind
• select candidates that are at similar stages in their business, so they can connect & build friendships with likeminded mentees in the same place
This level of support simply isn’t possible in a crowded group environment.
Five photographers allows space for your questions, your growth, and your confidence to develop without pressure or comparison.
Limiting enrolment isn’t about urgency or exclusivity for the sake of it. It’s a boundary that protects the depth of mentorship, the quality of support, and the experience for everyone involved.
If you’re accepted, it’s because I believe I can genuinely support you and plan to show up fully in your growth.
WE BEGIN MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2026 UNTIL FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2026
AND THERE’S ONLY 5 SPOTS AVAILABLE
HOW IT WORKS…
01
submit your application
02
candidates are reviewed & you’ll be contacted either way
03
non-refundable retainer will be due within 24 hours of approval or else your spot will be given up to the next in line
