PHOTOGRAPHY mentorship
with nikki moore
to amplify your business,
spark your creativity,
and flourish your life.
...you’re a newer photographer hoping to make a strong start to your business
...you’re burned out and starting to resent your clients
...you struggle to naturally and thoughtfully pose your actual clients (who aren't models)
...you’ve been doing this a while, but you feel like something isn’t working
...you’re not profitable but you’re afraid of raising prices + losing clients
...you brand yourself as a natural light photographer because you don’t really understand how to use light
...you think learning about external or studio lighting is unnecessary + intimidating
...you're overwhelmed with the reality of doing it all: sparking creative inspiration, building right-brain business skills, and nurturing your family and personal projects

Mentoring might be right for you if...
With over twelve years of experience as a photographer in Lincoln, Nebraska, I offer one-on-one guidance and training to help you grow and overcome challenges in your photography business.
I believe in-person mentoring and relational photography education has the power to strengthen both individual business sustainability, and the creative ecosystem in our Midwestern region. I've built a thriving six figure business in a highly saturated market - and I want to help you move towards personal, creative, and business flourishing!
Hi! I'm Nikki, your Nebraska photography mentor, mom-in-business friend, and business coach all in one.
Does some of that sound like you?

WHAT TYPE OF PHOTOGRAPHY DO YOU SPECIALIZE IN?
I'm primarily a portrait photographer: I've photographed over 120 weddings, countless seniors and family shoots, and thousands of individual portrait shoots. I also do quite a bit of product, interior, and lifestyle marketing photos. My work has been portrait focused for over 10 years.
I'M A BOUDOIR (OR NEWBORN, OR WEDDING, OR FAMILY, OR PET) PHOTOGRAPHER, CAN YOU STILL HELP ME?
Almost certainly! :) There might be technical or other specific elements of your specific niche that I can't speak to as much (or not at all - I have no experience shooting pets or sports cars, for example). There are many other aspects of business and time management and creativity that are essentially universal to understand - that's where I can come in!
HOW DOES SCHEDULING / PAYMENT WORK?
For Level One, you'll schedule your session right at booking since there is only one. For Level Two and Level Three, you will pay in full upfront, and only schedule your first session at booking. I'll send you a separate booking link for your remaining session; that way you don't have to choose both dates right away. All sessions must be fulfilled within one calendar year of the first mentoring meeting. For the best effect, I recommend spacing them out a few weeks - or a few months at most.
CAN I UPGRADE MY MENTORING LEVEL IF I WANT TO?
Of course! You can decide at any time to upgrade to a higher level and your payment will be applied to it.
