HELLO AND WELCOME!
Are You A Family Photographer Struggling To Turn Your Passion Into A Profitable & Sustainable Business?
You became a photographer because you love the idea of capturing meaningful moments for your clients. But somewhere along the way, the business side became... complicated.
Perhaps you're feeling:
- Overwhelmed by back-to-back sessions that leave you drained
- Uncertain about how to price your work confidently in a saturated market
- Keen to sell prints and albums, but it's just not happening
- Like you're working SO hard with very little to show for it
- Nervous about sales conversations - worried you'll come across as "pushy"
You're not alone. And here's the good news: there's another way.
The photographers who are building sustainable, profitable businesses aren't working harder - they're working differently. They've embraced in-person sales as a way to elevate their client experience while earning what their artistry deserves.
"Do the best that you can until you know better,
then when you know better, do better."

I'm Victoria Phipps and I help family photographers build businesses that support the lifestyle they crave.
Taking photographs seriously since 2009, I spent eleven years building a successful wedding photography business. Then the pandemic hit, weddings were cancelled and during that time I became a mother for the first and second time!
When I re-joined the world of work after my double maternity I knew that shooting weddings on location each weekend was no longer going to work for me and my family. So I pivoted my business and now I capture family portraits on film and create bespoke artwork for my clients to display in their homes.
Over the past 16 years in business I have been full-time and part-time. I've struggled with imposter syndrome. I've underpriced my services. I've marketed my business on every possible digital and analogue platform. I've invested my money in the wrong tools and the wrong people.
In short I've made a hundred mistakes! And I'm here to share them all with you in the hope you can avoid making the same ones and instead catapult your business to success.
