You've built something real.
Now make it intentional.
Most photography business coaching is built for beginners. Pricing worksheets, portfolio reviews, how to get your first clients. That is not you.
You have real revenue, repeat clients, and a reputation. What you need now is someone who can look at the business you already built and help you make it sharper, more profitable, and more intentional. A strategic thought partner, not another system to adopt.
The first call is free, 20 minutes. After that it is a paid engagement, with strategy sessions starting at $250. Remote, so it does not matter where you are based.
Who this is for.
Established photographers doing serious revenue, usually six figures and up, who feel like the business works but is not quite working for them anymore. Corporate and commercial photographers especially.
If your complaint is that you are over-delivering, your margins are thinner than they should be, or you know there is a next level and you cannot quite see the path to it, you are in the right place.
What we actually work on.
Pricing and margins
Most photographers do not know their real hourly rate once editing, delivery, and admin are in. We find it, and then we price like it.
Over-delivering
The free work leaks out somewhere: extra time on set, extra images, extra revisions, underpriced packages. We find the leaks and put scope back where it belongs, without losing the client love.
The commercial leap
Moving into agency and marketing company relationships, retainer-style work, and larger commercial jobs on purpose instead of by accident.
Intentional growth
Deciding what the business should look like a year from now and building toward that, instead of just taking whatever comes in the door.
How it works.
It starts with a free 20-minute call. We talk about where you are, what is working, and what is leaking. If it is a fit, we move into a paid engagement, and the strategy sessions from there are focused and practical. No curriculum, no homework for the sake of homework, no forcing your business into someone else's model.
Paid strategy sessions start at $250. Coaching happens remotely, so it does not matter where you are based.
Why me.
I run Sullivan Creative Co., a photo and video company in Greenville, SC, and I work with six-figure photographers across the country on exactly this. I see the patterns most photographers miss because they are too close to their own business.
I also run Handled, an agency that builds websites, apps, and AI workflows for growing companies. So the advice comes from someone actively operating businesses, not someone who just talks about them.
Had a strategic consulting session with no context and the advice and ideas I got were incredibly helpful and right on point.

Common questions.
Is this another course or program?
No. This is one-on-one coaching, built around your business. There is nothing to adopt and no system to follow. You bring the business you have, we make it better.
I already did a coaching program. How is this different?
Programs teach you a model. This is a thought partner for the business you already built. If you are past the startup phase and your problems are about margins, scope, and intentional growth, that is the whole point.
Do you only work with photographers?
Photographers are where I spend most of my coaching time, especially commercial and corporate shooters. I also work with other creative and service businesses.
