photography consults

“I recently had a consulting session with Lisa. It was the best investment of my time and money that I’ve put toward my art career in a long time. I left the meeting amazed by her expertise, impressed by her professionalism and upbeat nature and armed with loads of useful information and a long extremely helpful to do list that is fantastic. Two thumbs up.” - K.W.

“Lisa’s answers were simple and powerful.  No mumbo jumbo cryptic nonsense.   Just simple hard facts about running a business.  Things that as a someone who doesn’t run a business I was clueless about. She is sharp as a tack.  I am grateful for her advice.” - H.O.

I booked Lisa for a couple of consulting sessions and she was extremely helpful to me. I am a professional photographer who recently moved back to the Bay Area and am starting over from scratch. Lisa helped me to focus and saw things in a different light that made a lot of sense. I revamped my website, business cards, portfolio and have other ideas now after working with her. Totally appreciate her insight!” - S.B.
