Our newest Rooted to Roam workshop "LEVEL UP" is to help photographers grow their businesses in a way that allows them to get their time back, in order to live more. We dive deep into pricing, SEO, yearly planning and goal setting, along with album and print sales - all of which has allowed us to make more, take on less, and live the life we desire.
Learning is just the beginning. We know that leaving a workshop can be so overwhelming with all of the new items on your to do list, so we will have working sessions so that by the time you leave, you are on the right path of leveling up in 2023 and beyond.
And yes, of course we will have the elopement content you are hoping for too!
what does level up mean to us?
level up: taking the burnout out and putting boundaries in. creating a sustainable, long term thriving business by focusing on the parts of the business that move the needle.
WE want you to leave with the confidence & excitement OF taking ownership over your biz + life in 2023
There's so much to learn about business, especially in such a niche market. We are about to share some of our most important resources of how we now have a full time career with elopements.
This workshop isn't going to be like ones you are used to. We are going to be carving out time for you to actually put your learnings to work. You'll be working on the resources, while we are there for support, guidance, and one on one time.

These mock elopements are different than just styled shoots.

"Using what they taught me I was able to double my average booking price in just a few months..."
I can not speak highly enough about Kelsey and Nicole! They are both so passionate about what they do and truly care about the success of the photographers who attend their workshops. They are such great people to be around but they are even better teachers. They walk through their entire process and hold nothing back, and if you have a question they are more than willing to answer it. By the end of the workshop I had pages full of notes and felt so inspired about the future of my business. Their workshop is truly a business investment. I saw immediate results after implementing what they taught me and would attend another workshop without a second thought. Using what they taught me I was able to double my average booking price in just a few months, and then raise them again once I got more comfortable in the process. Not only did my prices increase, but the amount of elopements I was booking increased as well! The mock elopement was another incredible aspect about the workshop. We started the day learning from Kelsey and Nicole about client experience and how they create value and after were able to see how they actually interact with their clients and provide value on the wedding day with the mock elopement. I was able to leave the workshop with marketable content and information about how to better my business! Nicole and Kelsey are seriously the best and I would recommend their workshops to anyone!

Nicole and Kelsey are INCREDIBLE! Not only is their business knowledge top of the line, but they are just darn right amazing human beings! Fun, easy going, passionate, organized, driven, helpful, caring, did I say FUN?! Their Acadia Rooted to Roam workshop was chock-a-block full of tips and tricks and best practices to create an unparalleled client experience and was capped off with the opportunity to photograph a stellar couple on a mock elopement. Great content, great learning, and a whole bunch of new friends to share in this wonderful journey together! If you're considering a workshop, mentorship, one-on-one with either of these two rock stars, DO IT! You'll watch your business grow faster than you ever thought possible!

ACCOMMODATION
Moose Lodge + Cabins are locations in Bethlehem, NH. We will be staying in Moose Lodge, a beautiful home with tons of space and cozyness.
It is on a property of 30+ acres, so there are tons of beautiful trails in the woods, along the river and more. We wanted somewhere to feel like a retreat so you can take a deep breath and leave the crazy seasons behind.
we know this is a big investment
and we don't take that lightly.
Which is why we are creating this workshop to focus on the aspects of business that will actually make you money. You'll increase your bookings, create an incredible client experience and push new forms of marketing.
Content is important, we agree, but that's not the only thing that helped us become 6-figure brands. You can be an incredible artist and creator, but if you don't understand the business side of things, it will be hard to even get bookings to create your art.
Not only will the education portion be instrumental, but we will be carving out time to actually put your learnings into action, so by the time you leave, you aren't overwhelmed by your 'to do' list.
We aren't cramming in a bunch of information to feel that mental overload. Nope, we are only focusing on the aspects that we know will help move the needle in your business to keep it thriving for all the years to come.
