When I first started my photography business, I thought talent was enough. But the real transformation came when I stopped winging it and started thinking like a CEO—with systems, sales strategy, and a brand that actually reflected my worth.
That’s why I created The Creative CEO: a high-touch coaching program for photographers who are ready to raise their prices, attract aligned clients, and step into the next level with clarity and confidence.
If you’re building a business that’s both profitable and personal—this is for you.
Whether you’re pivoting out of burnout or scaling toward freedom, this is your next level.
She also runs a tight ship, in the best way. She never missed a beat and somehow kept the day moving seamlessly, while still catching the quiet, in-between moments that could have easily been overlooked.
Helena brings so much care, empathy, and intention to her work. You can feel it.
She made our couples shoot feel effortless and fun, using her creativity, eye for detail, and amazing prop placement to craft stunning, artsy photos that made us look snatched and picture-perfect. Her editing skills are next level, and her ability to tailor each shot based on our height, size, and outfits shows how much of a true pro she is. It’s an investment that’s 100% worth every penny.
Helena was hands-down one of our favorite vendors. Neither of us is super comfortable in front of the camera, but she made it feel really easy and fun. Her energy was super positive and relaxed; it was more like a friend hanging out with us. She gave just the right amount of direction, hyped us up when we needed it, and helped us feel natural the entire day.
