Transform your mehhh selfies into magical self-portraits
How? develop the eye of a portrait photographer
When you look at your camera roll after taking a round of selfies, how do you usually feel? Frustrated? Annoyed? Disappointed?
You are not alone.
“How do I position myself…”
”How do I get better lighting…?”
”What’s the best location…?”
”How do I make myself look goooood!”
I hear these questions from people ALL THE TIME looking to take better self-portraits.
And for good reason.
Whether you’re an influencer looking to take better self portraits to promote your sponsored products
A business owner looking to promote your services and brand
Or, someone who simply wants to share better photos with their friends and family…
…we communicate our expertise, thoughts and
lives through visuals — photos are valuable currency.
Cool - so, um, how do you take better photos?
“Before I took the course, I didn't have self-portraits with which to be frustrated, annoyed, or disappointed. I only happened to have a photo I could use where I could crop out my head. John communicated the information in SIY clearly and methodically. I appreciate how thoughtful each module was planned and presented. My confidence has improved significantly. I now have more than a point-and-shoot approach to taking photographs.”

“My confidence in what I can create "on the fly" has gone way up. I love the communication style of explaining the skill/tactic, then showing what it looks like on the actual phone, then examples of the finished product. It gave me a lot of ideas for portraits I could take. I also like that the videos were short and actionable. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone that uses social media as an authority building tool.”
ABBEY WOODCOCK
“Before I took the SIY course, I was embarrassed that my self-portraits didn't look as great as I hoped. Regardless, self-portraits are important because I use them to increase visibility and authority for my business online. John communicated the information efficiently and clearly. It was an excellent blend of high-level instruction with easy-to-follow steps. My confidence level was a 2, and now it’s a 10! I’m just happy with the results!”
