“Embracing Connection Masterclass changed my life. I felt like a fish out of water when I went into business photography mode. You see, I had a vague concept that I could create moments for my acquaintances and I captured the most gorgeous smiles and it was great. Clients I never met before? It felt like sandpaper. Then I moved and had to restart clientele, and after two attempts at education, I felt like I was in the wrong business. Then I found Embracing Masterclass.
From the first video, I had goosebumps. They were the missing pieces I needed to create those moments of vulnerability and connection with my clients. Athena and Cameron gave me the tools to confidently work with all types of clients and capture emotional images. I have been stopped by my clients after a shoot to be told they loved how I worked with them. That has never happened before the Embracing Connections Masterclass. I have had more referrals now than ever. I feel like a new photographer.”
“I am a new photographer and after taking this class I was able to start strong getting true emotions from clients. My 3rd session I did they told me that I made them feel super comfortable and they loved that I actually had ideas to get them enjoying the moment. It’s been amazing using these tools so far!”
“I have been using these invitations I have learned the past few shoots and I love feeling like I have new tools in my bag that help me stand out and give families a different and fun experience other than, look at each other and laugh. Your masterclass came at a perfect time when I feel like I am creatively in a funk and identity crisis. Thank you for your education. It was just what I needed!”
“I can't wait to establish this type of approach even within my own relationship. This speaks a love language without effort. Job well done to you two. You are here to change the world.”
“I am a newbie photographer and I now feel like I have every tool I need to be successful! This class feels like a precious gift. Everything Athena and Camron teach are principles that create beautifully authentic moments.”
“I bought this course when I FIRST started photographing couples near the end of 2020 and I still come back time and time again to reference this course before my shoots and weddings! I've been using different invitations with my couples, depending on their personality. Typically, my couples feel nervous at the beginning of the session but by the end, they always have tons of fun and feel much more at ease! I have an inquiry form on my website that asks potential clients what draws them to my work and the most consistent thing that has been said was that they love the storytelling and the genuine emotion captured through my work! This way of photographing taught my ECM really aligns with my heart behind photography and keeps me inspired in my work :)”
“I have learned so much about capturing emotions and creating invitations that feel natural and comfortable for my clients! Using Athena and Cameron’s invitation has brought such joy and emotion into my photographs.”
“Thank you guys for generously sharing your heart, your growth as a photographer, your talent and your love for the truth. The true meaning of capturing the moment & celebrating what God is doing in someone's life. Thank you for showing selflessness in this area of media & genuinely loving others! You're both a great blessing to many!”
