Where strategy meets purpose
The 8-week framework to building the luxury brand that books $3K clients.
This isn't about hustle — it's about a refined, repeatable client experience that sells itself. This is your roadmap to premium pricing, intentional branding, and creating a business that feels like you.
You're not alone in this.
- “No one is going to pay that much for what I do”.
- “I don't know how to sell products. It scares me.”
- "How do I break into the luxury senior market?"
- "I have no idea how to even talk to high-end clients."
- "How on earth are you charging that much?"
I hear it all too often:
Insecurity and doubt are normal feelings, but you're here today reading this my friend, so I know you’re ready for a NEW NORMAL. Can I just say this kindly? Remember that what got you here, won't get you there...
You’ve told yourself too many times that it’s not possible for YOU. Did I hit the mark? No need to hide.
What if I told you it really is possible for you? That you do have it in you to craft a high-touch experience that gets clients excited to work with you, regardless of your prices? Would you believe me?
What if...just work with me here...what if I taught you the exact process I used to go from charging $300-$500 per shoot to consistently booking $3000+ experiences on repeat? Would you want to know how I did it?
It’s time to stop wondering “what if”. It’s time for your brand to feel as elevated as your talent.
A DONE-FOR-YOU business model has never looked like this before
This is for the empowered
photographer who is ready to scale their business in 2025.
You've been ready! I know it! Let me show you how to create a 'Lifestyle-First' Business model. You know your worth, but you also know you’re undervaluing yourself. This is for the photographer like you who is ready to create an effortlessly streamlined business model that serves their clients with purpose in order to confidently charge what your work is truly worth. I'm looking at YOU my friend! Don't be afraid to say that number out loud!
How am I sure? Because I created this course for me!
This is for Maria, circa 2018. The Maria that felt 'stuck' and with no where to turn. I’m going to teach you step by step how to gain clarity on creating a client-centered business that books high-ticket dream clients excited to pay your premium prices. I’m not leaving you to guess what works or what to implement, I’m mapping out everything you need to succeed! I’m not leaving you to piece it together. I’m actually handing you the exact tools and processes I use to book high-ticket clients, so you can apply what you need and make it your own.
"With Maria's guidance, I was able to raise my prices and actually book more clients!"
— Liliana Chavez Photography
"It's been amazing! She walked me through exactly how to create a luxury experience that makes my clients feel special and sets me apart in my area. Honestly, working with Maria has totally transformed how I run my business".
Maria was amazing through every step of the process from the initial meeting, outfit planning, the shoot, and beyond. She made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the whole process.

The best advice I can give you from experience is that unlocking your true potential is only a decision away.

Invest in: believing in yourself, knowing your worth and breaking down those limiting beliefs today!
it really comes down to this genuine truth:

choosing to work only with premium dream clients that happily spend $3000+
getting your weekends back to spend with your family
taking full months off to travel or to simply rest!
freedom of independence and a secure future for yourself
because I know you dream of:
Psst...What if $3000 isn’t just a number… but a gateway?
What if you booked just one $3000 client in the next few months and realized it was just the beginning? My friend, your new normal!
That’s right.
What if you finally stopped feeling “too expensive” and started feeling completely aligned with your pricing, systems and strategy?
The more you implement, the more you grow & earn.
This isn’t a “maybe” situation—it’s a “guaranteed” one if you show up and do the work. This investment isn’t just about cost. It’s about Clarity, Confidence & Change.
Let’s break it down:
- You’re building a scalable brand, not just booking random sessions.

- You’re no longer in survival mode—you’re in growth mode.
- Imagine booking 2,3 or more clients at your new prices in the first few of months? Exactly!
Tell me, How many less sessions would you have to book? How much less time would you have to spend on mundane tasks that don't move the needle? What would you do with your "extra" time? This program pays for itself—plus leaves you with the tools and confidence to keep booking these dream clients on repeat!
Here's the best part!

HI THERE, I'M MARIA.
THIS IS My
Journey
With over 20 years photographing and over 5 years specializing exclusively in luxury senior experiences, I have learned that in order to be an unmatched photographer, you need to be the expert they are looking for, have confidence in yourself and not be afraid to take the risks that will catapult you to the next level.
i can help you because i've been WHERE YOU ARE NOW
Five years ago, $300 felt like the best I could do but I wanted more.
I remember what it felt like to be booked—but not thriving and stuck in a cycle that didn’t feel sustainable. Back then, $300 sessions felt like the best I could do. I wanted more; more income, more clarity, more confidence, but I didn’t know how to actually make that happen. It all felt so overwhelming.
Fast forward to now, I’m running a business that feels aligned with the life I want. I serve dream clients, charge $3000 for a full experience, and I have systems in place that give me peace and space.
And I’m telling you this because I know how easy it is to believe that kind of transformation isn’t possible for you. But it is!
I’ve walked this path, and I’m here to help you do the same.
You don’t have to figure it out alone.
