It's no coincidence that you're here.
I've been exactly where you are.
Perhaps you're frustrated that your turn around times keep getting longer and longer because your culling and editing workflow is all over the place and Lightroom moves a little slower every time you open it.
Or maybe you're trapped in the comparison game feeling your images don't measure up to your competition, or they just flat out don't stand out at all.
Your photography hasn't reached it's full potential and you know it. My guess is getting the editing truly figured out for your style is the missing puzzle piece and you're ready to figure it out. Whether you're brand new to photography or have been around since before LXC was a thing, here's one thing I know for sure
I know this first hand. I never imagined I, a mother of 3 from a small town in Kansas, would be traveling the WORLD because of my photography. I've paid off all my debt, bought a house I love and my husband was able to quit his job all because I took the time to REALLY learn how to make my images stand out and create efficient systems for getting the work done.
This is exactly why I would love for YOU to join Embracing the Storm. This course will accelerate your growth as an artist, save you hundreds (thousands??) in presets and teach you systems to keep your work organized and backed up safely.
Feeling 100% confident in your work will take you places you never dreamed.
Whether you've just downloaded Lightroom or you've been doing this for years, take your photography to the next level. This completely online program provides everything you need to get the most out of your images.

Education
Learn to edit images that get your art noticed
Embracing the Storm is broken down into 4 core training modules with unlimited access.
All course material - including videos, worksheets, text and images are available online.
01
Stirring art starts long before you log into Lightroom. In Module 1, we’ll go over everything you need to do before the very first edit.
You’ll master the ability to expose for your conditions so every desired detail remains dazzling while your images stay sharp.
The 3-2-1 System will ensure you never lose a precious file to broken hard drives or a corrupt SD card.
Staying organized may not sound sexy – but neither is losing that perfect image. This method will keep your photos in check so you can spend more time with your family and less time searching for lost work.
Optimizing your Lightroom catalog is going to save you SO much time, give you the ability to edit ANYWHERE form ANY computer and have you speeding through the culling process.
Feeling Exposed
02
Module 2 will dive into the tools you have at your disposal and how to use them to perfect your work. You will learn:
Show & Tell Every single module in Lightroom is broken down with screenshots to show you specific examples and explanations.
Secrets To Live By: All my favorite shortcuts that will save you hours and make editing a dream.
Bringing It All Together: This series of watch-while-I-work videos has you sitting in on editing sessions so you can see exactly how these techniques and tools are applied in real time.
Shedding Some Light
03
Editing is an art in itself. This is where your unique vision really shines. Watch and edit-along with examples of different lighting, skin tone, and environments to master tricks like:
The secret to shooting in harsh light (that has nothing to do with your camera). Because editing can’t save a poorly shot image, this one trick will save harshly lit sessions again and again.
How to synchronize your session images to save you hours (and hours) of time so you can create gorgeous deliverables clients remember.
Customizing your own presets not only further speeds up your edit and introduces consistency, but generates a profit source with the click of a button.
The Art of Editing
04
It’s all in the finish. In Module 4, you’ll dive into the finishing details of both portraits and processes that will set you apart, including:
The beauty of combining Photoshop with Lightroom and tips to improve the performance of both.
The must-have plugin that will save you time and money while boosting your customers’ awe.
Skin smoothing and color secrets.
The pro’s process to posting on social media without being glued to your phone. You’ll be able to share your work and live your life.
AND SO MUCH MORE!!

My Exclusive Editing Training
($8,000+ value)
This four module training has taken years to learn, hone in, refine and package up for you to reference over and over again. To receive this much information in a mentor session would cost thousands from any educator and includes regular updates to the information.
Everything about it was amazing and I learned so SO much.
It sped up my workflow and I learned things I didn't even know I needed to learn. There are a TON of videos, which is my favorite way to learn. And the step by step of the tone curve is incredible. I can not recommend this course enough!!! I've paid more for other courses and they haven't held a candle to what I learned in this course.

Twyla has SO many added goodies on there, it's so much more than just editing!!! I was able to change my complete lightroom uploading workflow and I even went into settings and changed things no one has ever taught me to do before....SO much goodness in it!!! I thought I knew Lightroom a little too well to really benefit and let me tell you...I didn't know nearly as much as I thought I did ;) Get it, Twyla and her stuff is GOLD!

I bought it last night. I have only been through a couple of sessions but so far I am really enjoying what I'm learning.
I am not fluent in Lightroom. Up to this point I have been mostly PS. I can already see how the tips will help speed up my flow, which means more time with my family.

I will be updating the course as things change and new information becomes available although the basics are always the same.

Investing in your business is scary, but don't let that fear hold you back. I can speak from experience: when I invest in my business, it always pays off.
Take a couple more minutes to really think about your answers to the following:
What if just one technique...
If You've Read This Far, You Owe This To Yourself....
cuts hours off of your time spent culling every month?
What if just one edit...
finally brings your custom preset together and you can add a new revenue stream to your business?
What if just one workflow...
speeds up your process enough to allow you to photograph more clients and increase your income??
What could these changes realistically be worth over your lifetime?
$1,000... $10,000....$50,000....or more??
You have absolutely nothing to lose and so much to gain. Take this opportunity to invest in yourself and join one of the most respected editing courses available to photographers.
