Your portfolio is what’s going to open the right doors for you. It’s not just about creating beautiful images, it’s about presenting the images in the most effective way to attract the right clients. Build an impactful portfolio with intention and the success will follow. We will set your business goals and craft a strategy and portfolio that will help you achieve those goals!

Be confident in your pricing

Stop undercharging for your images.
Your work is valuable! I’ll help you get into the right money mindset. Then we’ll develop a pricing structure that works for you and we’ll dive into the licensing world. If you trade your time for money, there’s only so much you can make. Let’s explore how licensing your work for commercial use can greatly boost your income

It takes time, effort and the right marketing strategy to get high profile clients.
Advertising agencies don’t just hire any photographer and we need to make sure your skills are up for the task. I will help you design a successful action plan to make sure you go after the right clients for your skillset. We will then develop your skillset to match the dream clients you deserve

Am I the right mentor for you?

food photography business mentor

I started taking photos when I was 8 on my film camera. I have been a professional photographer and stylist for over 10 years and a mentor for the past 5! #dreamjob 🤩

I’ve worked on projects big and small with amazing clients such as National Geographic and Tesco and have been featured in Vogue, Foodism and many more.

I know the struggles and challenges photographers face on their journey – I’ve been there!
Having a background in teaching children and adults with learning disabilities, I can adapt my coaching style to suit YOUR learning style so you can learn faster and with less effort!

I am very passionate about sharing knowledge and committed to helping you unleash your full potential. I genuinely care about my students and take great pride and joy in seeing them achieve their dreams!

Expect to work with someone enthusiastic and encouraging  who will always push you to overcome your limitations, flourish and succeed

I’m sure we’ll love working and growing together 😊

Is this program right for you?

I’m not gonna sugarcoat it because honesty saves everyone’s time and money.
It’s going to take commitment and resilience and you’re gonna have to put in the work.

Ultimately, your success will depend on how serious you are about making your dream career a reality NOW.
I can tell you that it’s possible and it’s more awesome than you could ever imagine.

The freedom to run your own business and have your own schedule, the creative satisfaction, the empowering boost from seeing your work in magazines, all the yummy food experiences you get to have working with other passionate foodies…
The struggles and the challenges are going to be OH SO WORTH IT. 

I will help, support, encourage and share my knowledge without holding back and be with you every step of the way. Your victories are my victories, your success my success. 

The great thing about this program is that it’s flexible in timing.
I recommend 1 session/week for 8 weeks so you can start your business sooner.
However, if you have a full-time job or a busy schedule we can spread out our sessions to allow more time for you to take things in and carry out assignments.

All I need from you is the motivation and commitment to go after the things that are really important to you so we can turn you into a badass food photographer.

Have you got what it takes?

Hear it from my students!

“I loved our session this week! I felt like I was walking on air and for the first time really felt like I can crack this and there is a chance of making some good money! It has lifted me in a time when things seem to be falling apart. It’s a total delight and pleasure to have you as my mentor!!”.

Graham @GrahamMartinPhotography

“Giulia always supported me by teaching me how to tackle issues on the business side, set well-balanced challenges and mapped my road to success. Knowing that I have great support encouraged me to take risks. Having a consistent person I could turn to each session, who has great experience and knowledge, was incredibly helpful. I highly recommend Giulia for any level photographers and for those who need a little push to get to where you want to be.
