1:1 Coaching with Kalysa
$250 | 1 hour of 1:1 Coaching with Kalysa
I love teaching other photographers, and I’m happy to share everything I’ve learned over the years in the business, from how I started to the mistakes I made to how I got to the place I am at today — I’m an open book! Whether you just picked up a camera or you have been shooting for years, I’m ready to help you create a business that fits your lifestyle and brings joy to your heart.
Coaching sessions are available Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. and take place over video chat!.
Before our video session, I’ll send you a questionnaire so you can tell me what you’re hoping to learn during your session. The information from the questionnaire will help me design a piece of personalized advice and specific action steps to take after our call.
Since I will cover a lot of information in our 1-hour video session, so If you still have questions after our meeting, please feel free to follow up with an email or schedule a second session!
