COACHING
CLARITY + STRATEGY THAT SOUNDS LIKE YOU
No one needs another cookie-cutter business plan. You need support that’s clear, creative, and actually doable — built around your story, your systems, and the way you want to work.
For photographers + creative business owners who want to show up honestly, streamline what’s messy, and build a business that feels like them.
PHILOSOPHY
THERE’S NO FORMULA. AND THAT IS THE POINT.
You are one of a kind — and so is your brand.
Your business isn’t generic. Your clients aren’t either. And you’re not building this in the same season, with the same energy, or for the same reasons as anyone else.
That’s why my coaching is deeply personalized.
Together, we slow things down. We look closely at what’s already working, what feels heavy or out of alignment, and what you’re actually trying to build. Not what Instagram says you should want — but what makes sense for your life, your creativity, and your photography business right now. From there, we create a plan that truly fits.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A CLEAR PLACE TO START.
You can choose from pre-designed coaching options based on common needs, or book a call so we can create a personalized plan together. Either way, you won’t be guessing what comes next.
GUIDANCE THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE.
Coaching that starts with your current season — not where you “should” be — and helps you move toward the next right step in your business.
SUPPORT THAT’S INTENTIONAL AND ALIGNED.
No busywork or generic homework. Everything we talk about, map out, or refine is directly connected to your goals, your energy, and the kind of business you want to build.
WAYS WE CAN WORK TOGETHER
There’s no single “right” way to work together — because every business, and every season within it, looks different.
Below are a few ways we can collaborate, depending on the level of support you’re looking for right now. Some people come in needing clarity and conversation, others want a plan they can follow, and some are ready for deeper, immersive work. You can start where it feels most supportive, and we’ll take it from there.
-
Focused, one-on-one conversations designed to bring clarity and momentum.
Strategy Calls are ideal when you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply want a clear next step. We’ll talk through what’s coming up in your business, name what matters most right now, and make intentional decisions together.
You’ll leave with clarity, direction, and a plan that feels realistic and grounded — not a long to-do list you’ll never touch.
Best for: creatives who want insight, reassurance, and a clear path forward.
-
A custom roadmap you can return to long after our call.
Frameworks are written guides created specifically for you, based on our conversations and your goals. They help organize your thoughts, clarify decisions, and turn big ideas into something you can actually work from.
Depending on your needs, a framework might include:
A clear client journey outline (from inquiry to delivery)
Offer or pricing structure recommendations
Email sequence structure and messaging notes
Brand voice or storytelling guidance
Prioritized next steps based on your current season
Notes on where systems, copy, or visuals can support your goals
Each framework is personalized to your business — not a template, not a worksheet, and not something you’ve seen before. It’s meant to give you clarity without overwhelm, and direction without rigidity.
Best for: creatives who want thoughtful guidance and something concrete to implement at their own pace.
-
Hands-on help bringing your plan to life.
When it makes sense, I offer implementation support — where I help you build or refine parts of your business based on the strategy we’ve created together. This might look like copywriting, Flodesk setup, website structure, or systems support, depending on what you need most.
Examples of implementation support can include:
Writing or refining email sequences (including Flodesk setup and automation)
Clarifying website structure or building a site map
Refining brand messaging or foundational copy
Streamlining workflows and systems behind the scenes
This support is selective and intentional. The goal isn’t to take over your business, but to lighten the load and help you move from planning to action with confidence.
Best for: creatives who want thoughtful execution support — not just ideas, but help making them real.
-
An immersive, in-person experience for deeper clarity and meaningful progress.
Full Day Intensives are designed for photographers who want to step out of the day-to-day and look at their business with fresh eyes. We’ll spend the day reflecting, refining, and planning — with plenty of space for both big-picture thinking and practical next steps.
You’ll leave with a clear direction, a personalized plan, and renewed confidence in how you’re moving forward.
Best for: photographers ready for a deeper reset and intentional growth.
Not sure which option fits best?
You can always start with a Strategy Call, and we’ll decide together what kind of support makes the most sense from there.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
"The thing I loved most about working with Lila is that she brings her whole self to the session and is fully present. She lets her walls down and listens carefully to your needs. She makes every effort to connect with you - because that is where the magic is found - and allows you to show up as your authentic self.
Sessions with Lila will almost certainly include a listening ear, lots of laughter, and dances in excitement when she knows that everything is coming together. Lila definitely knows how to put you at ease and walk you through the process, all while having a good time!
I'd recommend her work to anyone looking for a creative partner and not just photographer who will give you great images for you to put on your website, although she'll do that too! Thanks so much for everything, Lila!"
“What set this experience apart was that Lila started by getting clear on who I was and how that connected to what I offer my clients. Her creative ideas on how to tell my brand story in photos were awesome and full of wisdom.
And then the photo shoot was first and foremost so much freaking fun. I had a blast and Lila was joyful and upbeat and made me feel confident. She knew the light and had great ideas on what photos she wanted and how I could use them to meet my website and social media needs.
It was amazing.”
“Lila took my very first professional photos! She made me feel incredibly comfortable and safe, I felt like I was in the room with a friend where I could be my true self, even in front of a camera.
Lila listened to what I wanted and needed as a brand and completely delivered. She was able to offer her professional advice through the lens of what my brand stood for, which is a true gift!
I would recommend Lila to anyone looking for personal or professional photos. She will get to know you, make you feel comfortable, and bring magic to your photos. Highly recommend!”
