The problem is...

You bought a fancy camera with hopes to take beautiful photos of your kids and document their childhood. 

But.. 

You quickly discovered that it doesn't take amazing photos right out of the box. They may be dark, grainy, blurry, and just not what you envisioned. 

Maybe you joined a bunch of photography related groups or have been watching endless YouTube videos trying to figure it all out. It just seems so overwhelming and frustrating! 

Perhaps your camera is still sitting in the box and you just haven't felt like pulling it out. After all, you have a better chance of getting the photo you want with your cell phone.

    Are You Ready to Learn a Step-By-Step Process to Conquer Your Camera?

    Then you are in the right place! I was in your shoes about 5 years ago. I bought my camera because I wanted beautiful photos of my kids. I quickly became frustrated. It sat in the bag and I rarely took it out except to attempt to capture some holiday photos. I watched countless videos trying to figure it all out. I joined every group I could and soaked it all in. But it was a LOT of information, and I couldn't sort through it all. After about 3 and a half years, I decided to take my first class and it was a GAME CHANGER! 

    ...And I found my passion! I went on to be mentored by my teacher to start my very own photography business the next month.

    This program compiles everything I've learned in the past 5 years and focuses on ONLY WHAT YOU NEED right now in your journey. 

    As a former teacher, I am able to simplify the information in a way that anybody can do it! The course includes, simple assignments to hone in and help you practice and perfect each skill along the way. I designed the program in a way that by the time you get to manual mode, it will feel so seamless that you will wonder what you were so scared of and why you haven't learned this sooner!You will want to pull out your fancy camera to take more photos because you know exactly what you need to do to capture the perfect moment and you know your phone can't compare!

    You Are READY to Conquer Your Camera if You Are:

  • A complete beginner or have been dabbling in photography for awhile

  • Wondering why your photos are grainy, dark, blurry, and/or unfocused

  • Tired of trying to figure it out on your own.

  • Searching for a simple, quick way to learn manual mode

  • Ready to take better photos TODAY not in years from now

  • ​Looking for someone to walk you through the process step by step

  • Ready to develop a critical eye on your photos

  • Willing to commit 90 minutes a week to develop your photography skills while connecting with other moms

  • Conquer Your Camera is NOT for You If:

  • You are content with the quality of your photos

  • You already know how to shoot in manual and understand the exposure triangle in a way that you know exactly what settings to use to achieve your desired photo

  • You are content spending hours upon hours to continue to learn how to use your camera without personalized guidance from an expert

  • You aren't willing or able to put about 90 minutes worth of time each week to focus on the material and practice

  • Hear What Others Are Saying...

    "I just wanted to say THANK YOU, Valerie for this wonderful class! You helped me become a better, more confident photographer. As you all know, I had to get better fast because I was the photographer for my sisters wedding this past weekend. I used the techniques Val taught us and am pretty pleased with how they turned out. Most importantly, my sister loves them!"

    "I highly recommend this class to anyone with any type of camera. I went from never using the camera because I was so intimidated by it (I didn't even know what the buttons did and could only get dark pictures) to actually taking pictures I'm proud of after just the first lesson!"

    Melissa Ciba

    May 2020 Graduate

    "Signing up to conquer my camera is one of the best things I did this year for myself - and my family. This is THE course you need to take if you love taking photos of your family, if you have a camera or are planning to buy one (because Valerie will help you with that too). The biggest difference between this course and others out there - even those targeting moms - is the amazing live format. You get to ask questions in class, your assignments get a lot of individual attention, plus you will have a close knit group of ladies to cheer each other on as you go through the journey together, and beyond. Before taking the course, I never touched a camera in a decade. I take lots of pictures on my phone, but sometime during the course, my preference changed and I started carrying around a camera. Valerie makes it so easy to learn, with lots of examples (of your own photos!) and time to practice each skill. I now have so many more good photos of my family and only wish I could've done this years ago. Looking forward to continuing to share and learn with my fellow graduates!"

    "When I found out about the Conquer Your Camera class, I decided that this was my chance to FINALLY learn how to use my DSLR camera after having it for 10 years (most of which was spent in the bag). Before this class, I was very much a beginner. I thought that I should be able to pick up my camera, take a picture, and it turn out great because it was an expensive camera. I had no real knowledge of how my camera worked, how to adjust settings, and the importance of light. This class changed everything for me. I went from taking a picture and immediately packing my camera back away after getting frustrated with the quality of the picture taken to being excited to take pictures and keeping my camera available for picture-worthy moments that may arise....and also being proud of my pictures!"
