IMPORTANT:
THE SUMMER PHOTOGRAPHY CLIENT
SCAVENGER HUNT IS NOT FOR YOU IF:
You’re planning to take the summer off from booking new clients
You’re brand new and have NEVER had a paying client
You like running Facebook ads and don’t like talking to humans
The reality: Even successful photographers need a marketing refresh
You're booking clients and creating beautiful images, but when was the last time you updated your marketing?
Between client sessions, endless editing, and running your business, marketing often falls to the bottom of the list.
But spring's biggest opportunities are coming – and they'll go to photographers whose marketing is as polished as their social feed.
So If You’re a Portrait Photographer Who Is…
Looking for ways to keep your business thriving while other photographers take the whole summer off (hello, mortgage payments that don't take vacations!)
Feeling torn between spending days with your kiddos AND bringing in income this season (psst... you can totally do both!)
Ready to build relationships with right-fit clients who'll not only book now but practically beg to get on your fall calendar, too.
Ready to use this break from packing lunches and checking homework to finally give your business the attention it deserves.

Questions?
Let’s go!
I’m working hard but still struggling to fill my calendar. Will this really work for me?
You’ll know exactly what to do this summer to get more portrait photography clients. We’ve had several participants who’ve gotten clients attending our 5-day (FREE) training.
I’ve invested in gear and training, but marketing feels overwhelming. Is this something I can actually implement?
Each day you'll learn ONE simple task that takes a few minutes to implement. These easy steps have helped fill summer calendars for thousands of photographers.
There are so many photographers in my area. How will this help me stand out?
Most photographers shut down June-August thinking clients are away. Not true! Summer is perfect for booking—great light, outdoor spots, and families ready for photos.
I’m not naturally good at selling myself. Will this work for someone who feels awkward about self-promotion?
Our strategies work for you whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert.
I’ve tried free trainings before that were just sales pitches. Is this actually valuable?
Our free challenges have generated over 3,000 reviews because our stuff works! Attendees have walked with leads DMing them, clients booked and invoices paid.

When your business is thriving, your opportunity to make an impact in your community grows exponentially. That’s why giving back is central to our values.

As a united effort, our members have funded important causes, including over $100,000 raised for Operation Underground Railroad, $50,000 for Operation Smile and $20,000 for the Jed Foundation. Collectively our Peak Performance Coaching members have donated over $110,000 to animal specific charities in their communities in 2023 & 2024.

At the Photography Business Institute, you will be coached by our team of seasoned photography business owners in a safe, online space for open learning and growth. Our unique framework of learning, implementation and constructive coaching and feedback in a dedicated online community is why our members experience greater success.
