ABOUT

Christen Peters — film photographer, creative director + mentor

I've been a photographer for 20 years now. I have experienced the full gamut of being a photographer — weddings, commercial, e-commerce, families, newborns, maternity, editorial. I have had some high highs and low lows. I know running your own business can feel overwhelming, especially with all the content available to us these days. So if you feel like you’re asking, “where do I start?” or “how do I grow and sustain this business I love?” , I’d love to help guide you and walk alongside you in your journey.

During our time together, we can discuss finding your style, pricing, shooting film, how to guide clients during a session, website / portfolio review, editing, client communication + experience, or anything else you may need help with.

This is my passion and I am always so honored to share my knowledge with others.

1:1 online mentoring session — $650
for photographers anywhere in the world

This 2 hour Zoom call mentor session will be crafted to your specific needs + questions! It is open to photographers in all walks of their career. If you’re just starting your business or have been at it for a while, you’re welcome to book a session to grow and learn, no matter what your skill level.

A few topics typically include:
pricing, finding your style, how to attract your dream clients, shooting film, client experience, workflow, social media, portfolio review.

The sky is the limit with what we chat about. I will send you a pre-session questionnaire to make sure we cover all the most important topics. This is your opportunity to invest in yourself and discover your “why” and your style — this is how you attract those dream clients!

1:1 in-person mentoring session — $1350
Auckland, New Zealand (available for travel if preferred)

We will spend a day together, doing a live styled shoot, tailored to your portfolio needs. We’ll grab coffee and chat about the shoot and cover any questions you might have.

You will get to join me during a live shoot and watch me interact with the clients, get the kids comfortable and engaged, see how I work with challenging light, etc. You can ask any and all questions during the session. Also feel free to shoot alongside me or observe — the pressure is off you to direct the clients…this is your time to learn, practice, and be creative.

Afterwards, we will get a meal and discuss the session. If you’re shooting digital, we can go through editing a few photos together. If you’re shooting film, we will critique + edit when you get your scans back!
