MEET YOUR MENTOR
I have a feeling you’re a lot like me: someone who strives to improve their craft—and will put in the work to crush their goals.
I’ll admit, as a self-taught photographer, it wasn’t easy turning this hobby into a full-time career—it’s a tough industry to crack! I watched hours of Youtube videos. I photographed my friends. I signed up for courses. I attended workshops. I invested in business. I found a business coach. And it was all worth it. I learned so many skills. I uncovered a community of photographers that support one another. And in four years, I built a six-figure business. And I believe you can too.
To me, education, learning, and new perspectives are important for photographers at any skill level. While these photography mentorship sessions are tailored to you, here are some common questions that I’ve been asked (and have lots to say about!):
• What is your editing process like?
• How can I help my clients pose?
• How do you organize your photography business?
• What is your client workflow?
• Can you help me with my camera settings?
You're in the right place. Let's discover what sets you a part!
01
The first step is easy peasy: Hit the “Book Now” button attached to the form below. You’ll be asked to share a bit about yourself and what you’d like to get out of a mentorship session. I’ll get back to you with a simple questionnaire to fill in any gaps, so we can structure the session to serve you best!
02
After your mentorship session, you’ll get a follow-up email summarizing our meeting. I’ll also hook you up with a bonus resource that covers all my go-to photography and business tools. In case you have any follow-up questions, I typically keep my schedule open for a week after the session to answer any inquiries. Just shoot me an email!

I want to make these sessions as flexible as I can. We can meet over a video call (such as Zoom, or Facetime), or we can meet in person at a cafe in the Vancouver area.

Mariah was so sweet to work with! I had a mentor session with her and she was so helpful, so comprehensive and so thoughtful the whole time from the initial contact to the follow-up after our session! We discussed things from the technical aspects of photography, to posing, to business and marketing and everywhere in between and she was so transparent with her own experiences and what she taught me. I loved my experience learning from Mariah through he mentor session and would highly recommend to any other photographer who was hoping to get a little more guidance!! <3
