Utah Photography Mentor

I’m Carly! Your new photographer BFF.

I’m here to help you take control of your career, your clientele, and your style. If you’re feeling like none of your clients “get you” and you never have content you LOVE… I’m here to help!

For years I was photographing painfully posed sessions in neon colors. I felt disconnected from my work & was on the brink of quitting. But instead, I decided to take control of my art. Shooting meaningful content reignited my passion & allowed me to better serve my clients. & YOU CAN DO THIS TOO!

Get ahead of the game! Together let’s DREAM BIG and grow together.

Not local to me? No prob.

I also offer virtual mentorships for businesses in all stages. Let’s talk about where you want to go!

“After two failed mentorships with other photographers, I took the leap of faith and hired Carly for a virtual mentorship. And boy, I am SO happy that I did! As a novice photographer, the information Carly provided was truly invaluable. Our session was informative, easy going, and also fun! The mentorship has made a positive impact on my business and without a doubt was worth the investment. I highly recommend Carly to any photographer that is looking for a mentor or who simply wants to propel their photography business.”

The Experience:

ONE ON ONE MENTORSHIPS

plan & style.

Tell me everything. We will chat about your goals, your ideal client, and your DREAM SESSION. To start, you will pick the type of session we will create (family, elopement, maternity, etc.) We will put together elements of YOU to create magic including a custom color palette & mood board. I’ll show you how to send out a model call & what to look for in the models we select. After we find the perfect models we’ll go over the do’s and don’ts of styling a session.


learn & grow.

Upon booking you’ll send me the 3 main goals you have for your business. I’ll create a detailed & customized outline for those goals along with my photography “cheat sheet” full of things I’ve learned through my real life experience growing my own business. This content is yours to keep & refer back to as you continue to learn. Other things that will be included in your curriculum are:

  • client communication + connection

  • my MUST HAVE apps + tools

  • camera settings

  • lighting & subject placement

  • posing, prompting, and storytelling

  • website & instagram assistance

  • & more!

go & shoot.

It’s session day! We can either meet up for coffee before or drinks after the session to pick my brain (my treat). This is your opportunity to ask any questions. I do not gate keep; I am here to lift you up!

During the session we will be shooting side by side. You’ll see how I help clients lower their walls & get in the moment. We will be double checking settings frequently. I’ll show you how & why I place clients the way I do as our light changes. At any point you are able to press pause and ask questions. After all, I am here to help you grow.

“Doing a mentorship with Carly was an absolutely amazing experience. This woman truly cares about helping others succeed. I couldn’t believe the care she put into the entire process. From start to finish it was individually detailed to my needs and where I wanted to grow in my skill. She works with you to create and theme for your session and helps you style your clients based on the aesthetic you want to achieve. During the mentorship she teaches you her process, how she communicates, and educates you on the areas you’ve expressed you want to grow in. At the shoot she teaches you how to prompt in order to capture the most authentic connections and how to think on your toes to capture the perfect shot. She’s great at pointing out areas you already excel in and helps you to see your talents. She truly wants every photographer to succeed to their highest potential. I strongly recommend her to anyone who wants to grow in their skills and wants a mentor who will help you get there! ”
