1:1 Landscape Photography Coaching: Planning, Shooting & Editing
Personalized guidance to help you plan, capture, and process better landscape photographs — with confidence.
These one-on-one virtual consultations are designed for beginner and amateur landscape photographers who want clear, practical help — not generic tutorials. Each session is customized around your questions, images, and goals, whether you’re learning to photograph waterfalls, planning a Milky Way shoot, or refining your Lightroom workflow.
Sessions are held live via Zoom, with screen sharing so we can work directly with your photos and planning tools.

Learn how to approach common landscape scenarios with intention and confidence:
