So, I have a fun new announcement to make…The demand has gotten large enough that I am now making it official and offering a limited number of mentoring sessions each year to those who are interested in improving their photography or who would like to take their small business to the next level. Mentoring sessions have no set curriculum and are designed around you and what you wish to achieve in your growth as a photographer or business owner. Everyone is welcome from beginners to advanced.

There are two options to choose from:

Phone/Skype Consultation – $150/hr (2 hr minimum)
We can cover anything from defining your style, photographic technique, interacting with the customer, equipment, websites, SEO, building your business, marketing, branding, creative exploration – you name it and we’ll talk about it. I will be an open book for you.

In-Person Mentoring Session – $850
Includes five hours of one-on-one time together, answering all of your questions, plus a 30 minute photo shoot of YOU so that you can take some pictures home with you to use on your blog or website.

Aside from my own 13 years of experience behind the camera, I have personally attended in-depth workshops and/or mentoring programs with all of the photographers listed below. I can pass on the knowledge that I gained from those experiences to you.

Carrie Sandoval & Brittany Woodall (Baby as Art)

If you are interested in signing up for a Mentoring Session, simply email us at info@jillcarmel.com along with what you would like to talk about and we will contact you with available dates.

*Please note that these sessions are only available to individuals residing/working outside of a 200 mile radius of Sacramento, CA.
