Oh friend, I have done it all!
12 years as a wedding photographer, pre-family.
Transitioned to portraits 15 years ago after growing to a family of 5.
Along the way I have run a small portrait studio on my own; worked from home (yes, with three babes on my hip) shooting sessions on location; ran a 1,700 sqft retail portrait studio with a team of 6 (holy cow, learned a lot); and lastly, in 2022 I bought a 2,000 sqft boutique studio offering high end portraiture.
Hi, i'm laura esmond
Mompreneur. Boss. Food lady. Photographer. Coach. Unpaid Uber driver. Passionate photographer ally.
Since 2001,
I have worked as a photographer
Let me tell you, over the years, there were moments when I felt completely burnt out, and other times, scared outta my mind as I pursued my dream of building a business that not only brought in some serious cash (no more hobby shooting for me!) but also didn't take over my whole life. I didn't want to be stuck shooting weekend sessions. I wanted a majority vote in my work schedule & paycheck. I didn't want to majorly stress leading up to the holidays because I had to shoot a gajillion sessions to make ends meet. I wanted unrushed, worry-free time with my three kids.
I thought those things would be no-brainer parts of owning a small portrait business. Friend, I was so wrong. I had to choose powerfully to create that business, with no apologies.
And now, I'd like to teach you to do the same. So snag a few free resources above or head to the shop to grab a template or workshop. I'm here for you and I want nothing more than to see succeed faster & with ease.
creating simple systems that work for me (instead of against me).

"Working with Laura was an absolute game-changer for my business. You know, with the whole post-COVID situation, I had to seriously consider raising my prices, but I gotta admit, I was kinda scared about how my clients would react. But then, like a total pro, Laura came in and totally transformed my mindset! She gave me the perfect words, the right mindset, and this amazing, proven system that empowered me to raise my prices to truly reflect my worth.
And, oh my gosh, wow! I started seeing those jaw-dropping 4-figure sales come in, and I became a total believer in Laura's magic. She's got that special touch! Thanks to her, my business is soaring high, and I'm just over the moon about it! 🌟💸"
