About Me

Hi, I'm Janet

You can call me J.

I love photography. Even more, I love helping people. I've had a lot of success in photography, but I feel like my true calling is helping others create their best life. My goal is to transform your business and mindset so you can achieve your full potential.

I wasn't always a photographer. I spent the first part of my career working in technology, quickly rising to the level of VP at SunTrust Banks and The Weather Channel. Eventually I decided to strike out on my own in photography, and that's how I've spent the last 20 years. I've been blessed to have some amazing experiences, working with celebrities, traveling, and making great friends through what I do in photography. 

I started to feel the pull toward using my experience to help people, sharing my knowledge of photography and business to lift up those who are walking the same path. So I became certified as a life coach and business coach so that I could make sure I'm supporting my clients in the best possible way. My mission is to help you start living your dream, developing your business while enveloped in an uplifting, empathetic atmosphere.

My style is to look at everything holistically, taking into account your skills, tools, and goals as well as your mindset, so we can break through any barriers to success along the way.
