What’s the secret to running a portrait or wedding photography business without spending your entire life in front of the computer, responding to emails? And how can you set yourself up to give each and every client an incredible experience – one that leaves them not just willing but eager to leave you a 5-star review?

 

The answer to both of these questions is the same: a strong workflow for your photography business! Creating a consistent and repeatable client experience that you take each customer through is essential for any thriving business. And despite what you may have heard, creating a pleasant and personal experience for each and every customer can ALSO be an efficient and repeatable system that saves you time and energy!

 

Who doesn’t want to spend less time in their inbox, and more time doing what we love? Whether that’s growing your business by photographing more weddings and portrait sessions, or just spending more time with friends and family, a strong workflow is the key to unlock more time in your life while also making your business stronger than ever.

 

Why improve your workflow now?

Life is busier than ever, especially for small business owners like us. So how can you find time to keep up with all the emails, all the photographing, and all the editing?! Not to mention doing things you love like traveling, working on your hobbies, being a good partner or parent, and spending time with loved ones!

 

Not only will creating or improving your workflow earn you back time with each and every job, but it will ensure that every one of your clients is getting your absolute best. How you’ll use your extra time each week is up to you: whether you want to fit more jobs into each month and each year, growing your business and making more money – or just continue to capture the same volume of work, but in fewer hours each week!

 

Either way, investing time NOW into a robust workflow will pay dividends for years to come in the form of saving you time and energy with every single client you book from here on out! You do NOT want to wait until your business has grown beyond what you can handle to start implementing a strong workflow. By then, it’s already too late! Set yourself up for success in the future by building your workflow today.

 

Okay, but why THIS course on workflow?

In this 2-hour workshop, we aren’t just going to teach general principles around workflow and systems. We’re going to lay out, step-by-step, our entire portrait and wedding photography workflows. From responding to the initial inquiry all the way through delivering a wedding album and collecting 5-star reviews, we’re going to teach the what, the why, and the how of each and every step.

 

If you’re in the early days of your business and using free software like Gmail and sending PDF contracts, we’ll lay out how our entire workflow can be executed using other free software. But if you’re running a more robust business and using a “Client Relationship Management” (CRM) software like Honeybook, we’ll lay out how the power of automations can save you countless hours behind the computer.

 

Why learn from Hunter and Sarah?

Since starting our business in 2015, we’ve booked and photographed more than 1,000 weddings and portrait sessions. And along the way, we’ve built, tweaked, improved, and grown our workflows based on feedback from real clients. Now, our partly-automated systems allow us to run a multi-six figure wedding photography business in under 30 hours per week.

 

In addition to our experience building our own workflow, in our 200+ hours of 2-on-1 coaching, we’ve helped our photography students build out their own portrait or wedding photography workflows, saving them time, and allowing them to scale their businesses even faster than we did! This course will help you get control of your client experience, and set yourself up for success – whether you’re running a full-time photography business, or just want a more profitable photography side-hustle.

 

Okay, so what will I actually learn in this Workshop?

Here's what we'll cover in this 2-hour workshop:

  • What is workflow? – We’ll start off the workshop with a brief section explaining what workflow is, and why it’s so important to a growing photography business.
  • Our exact portrait workflow – From there, we’ll walk you step-by-step through what one of our portrait clients experience from the moment they first send us an email until long after their photoshoot is done.
  • Executing a portrait workflow (for free) – If your business isn’t at a place where you can afford expensive software, don’t worry. We’ll show you exactly how we ran our workflow – even in the earliest days of our business – using a combination of free software.
  • The power of automation – For our students ready to take their workflow to the next level, we’ll also show how that same portrait workflow can be used in a software like Honeybook to harness the power of automations. Now, your workflow practically executes itself, with just a little oversight from you to add that boutique, personal touch!
  • Building a Honeybook automation – We don’t just want to teach the theory, but also the practical. We’ll demonstrate exactly how to use a software like Honeybook to set up an automation in minutes.
  • Our exact wedding workflow – Now that we’ve taught you the principles on a simpler workflow, we’ll share our entire wedding workflow: all 50+ steps!

 

Who are Hunter and Sarah, anyway?

Meet your instructors: Hunter and Sarah Sheldon! We're a husband-and-wife, professional wedding photography team based in central Virginia, on the east coast of the US.

We've been mentoring photographers for years toward success they could only imagine, and have personally helped newer photographers build profitable businesses, quit their jobs, and pursue their dreams through our coaching and our workshops. Speaking of which, we've led more than 200 hours of coaching calls and live workshops, and are excited to continue using our expertise to take you and your business to the next level.

What are others saying about learning from Hunter and Sarah?

"[Hunter and Sarah] took me step-by-step from being a person with a camera to a professional portrait photographer, booking and shooting multiple sessions per week. They pushed me to bet on myself and my abilities, and really put my all into my photography business. My business would not be where it is now without [Hunte rand Sarah], and neither would I. They believed in me before I believed in myself, and with their guidance and encouragement, I have grown immensely as a photographer, as a businesswoman, and as a person." -Kelly S., Wedding Photographer & HSPE Coaching Student 2019-Present

 

"Through [Hunter and Sarah's] program, I have learned the ins-and-outs of successfully running a photography business. Learning from them has not only increased my photography knowledge base and skill sets, but it has also given me the confidence to go out and lead-shoot a wedding day. As someone who still works full-time, having a wedding and portrait photography business has added so much value to my life. I love the community that I've built around my photography and the opportunities for creativity that it affords!" - Hayley S., Part-time Photographer & HSPE Coaching Student 2021-2023
