There are TWO Zoom calls every week of the program, one of which is optional:

Group Coaching Call: Wednesdays, 9:00am-10:00am PT on Zoom

Q&A Office Hours: Thursdays, 12:30pm-1:30pm PT on Zoom (Optional)

None of the group calls are absolutely required, but the Wednesday group call is strongly encouraged that you attend every single one. In order for you to get the most out of your coaching membership, there will be important content and skills you’ll learn on those calls, plus the group holds each other accountable throughout the program.

If you have prior meetings, travel, shoots or engagement that will prevent you from attending one or two Wednesday calls, that’s totally fine. But we encourage you to arrange your schedule so you’re able to consistently attend whenever possible. 

The Thursday Q&A Office Hours are totally optional and you don’t have to show up on time or be there the entire hour. Just pop in, ask a question, then pop out!

Yes but… they will become available at the end of the eight week program. This is to encourage you to show up live to every single Wednesday call.

The Wednesday Group Coaching Calls are only valuable when the community is present. They’re not passive calls where you’ll sit and listen, but are full of active participation where you’ll contribute to the group. You’ll invest in everyone else, and everyone else will invest in you! That’s part of what makes this program so powerful!

Absolutely! The Thrive System is meant to serve you for the lifetime of your business, so even though you’ll initially receive the lessons week by week, once they’re in your members’ portal, you’ll have lifetime access to revisit the videos whenever you’d like!

This course is so fundamental to running a photography business that we’ve had photographers from all stages of business – from year one to year twenty – experience dramatic transformation. Whether you’re a solopreneur, a married team, or have a team of associates, we address all of those scenarios throughout the program. 

It doesn’t matter what stage you’re in or how many years you’ve been doing this (or not doing this), the Thrive System will serve you exactly where you’re at.

The honest answer?? I don’t know yet! (If you don’t know this about me, I’ll ALWAYS be honest with you.)

This course is created specifically for wedding photographers and I’ve only had wedding photographers as students. There is a LOT of content in the program that does apply directly to wedding industry professionals and can be applied to portrait photographers, but there are also weeks that will be tough to adapt to your situation (such as pricing and the Scorecard).

Since I haven’t had students other than wedding photographers, I have no proof or evidence if this will work for you or not. My hunch is that it will, but you’ll have to adapt the content to your specific situation. 

However, I do know that if you’re NOT a wedding industry professional or if you’re a different type of photographer other than weddings & portraits (commercial, fine art, landscape, sports, etc) this program is not the right fit for you.
