While social media groups can be great for the odd tip or interaction with the pros in the industry, getting dedicated, personalised assistance with your unique pet photography shooting and editing issues can sometimes be a challenge!
One-on-one pet photography mentoring adds jet fuel to your self-study – speeding up progress, taking you farther. As experienced teachers, Charlotte and Craig can answer every little question, demonstrate, and correct things that are getting in your way.
Whatever challenges you may be facing, our online mentoring options are crafted to be as unique as you are, depending on your specific needs and give you that boost of confidence you need to work through whatever you're stuck on.
