“Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and igniting my spirit! I feel like I can finally be a daughter, sister, and friend!

I don't have to be the tired teacher/photographer praying for a break to come so I can sit at my computer and finish editing all of my sessions that have piled up. This course is the BEST!”

- valerie C.

“I am blown away by the editing course! Finally I feel equipped to create the gorgeous creamy skin tones I love in other people's photos that I just couldn't seem to get on my own until today! Thank you Katelyn for setting me free in editing!”

WHAT LIFE COULD LOOK LIKE

just imagine...

Edit weddings fast and stop staying up until 2am! With this system, you’ll reclaim your time and energy, so you don’t miss out on life with your family. I know the struggle—I was exhausted and overwhelmed until I created a system that transformed my workflow. It’s been a game-changer for over a decade, and I can’t imagine being a wedding photographer without it. We started our businesses for freedom, not burnout. Your loved ones deserve your presence, not your stress!

Say goodbye to living behind your laptop until 2am

It’s tough to be the one always saying no—whether it’s bedtime with your kids, Netflix with your loved one, or family fun. Missing out on life because of work won’t make you proud in the long run. Yes, work needs to get done, but not the way you’ve always done it. Imagine working smarter and faster, so you can play hard without guilt that you aren't on your laptop. It’s possible!

Stop missing out on every day family life

Even with high price points and over decade of experience, I still shoot budget-friendly backyard weddings—and make them look like six-figure events. The key is mastering consistency in your edits and following curation rules that elevate your brand, no matter what you shoot. In the KJ Editing Course, you’ll learn how to turn a $5,000 wedding into a $50,000 masterpiece!

Blog a $5,000 wedding like it's a $50,000 wedding

Do you deliver each wedding before shooting the next, or does your 'To Edit' list keep growing? If your stomach churns with every new set of cards to upload, it's time for a change. In the KJ Editing Course, learn every step of my process, from import to blog post. What does this mean for you? Never fall behind on workflow, create an automatic marketing system for each wedding, and gain the margin to grow your business instead of just maintaining it.

Never fall behind on your workflow again

Become known for your style and service, not just being the most affordable. Stop wasting hours on trial-and-error editing and actually finish work by the end of office hours! I know from experience—confidence comes with having a defined style. There's nothing better than hearing, 'That looks like a KJ image!' You can have that too. Defined styles aren't just for veterans; they're for anyone ready to master Lightroom—and I’ve made it easy for you!

Avoid devaluing your brand by finding your style

common question:

...but what if I'm not a “light & airy” photographer?

answer:

A lot of our students aren't light & airy either! It's still an amazing fit!

Different students, different styles, same goal:

CONSISTENCY

film-like

bold contrast

natural pop

These are all different editing styles... but they are all consistently achieved the same way...... mastering Lightroom.  When you thoroughly know and understand all that Lightroom has to offer, you learn consistent editing patterns in the basic tab and tonal curve, and you understand in-depth color adjustments like color grading and specific HSL adjustments, you can create ANY style you want! The Consistency Course isn't about mastering the KJ Style.... it's discovering your own... no matter what style you're drawn to!

Nervous to make this big of an investment? I absolutely get it, no worries! That's why I'm offering my 30-day, risk-free happiness policy, because if you're not happy, I'm not happy.

My no fluff policy:

 I've been there. The "Fear of Fluff" is real and can cause hesitation when investing in online education! This is a fluff-free zone. I am committed to that because I've been burned by that myself in the past. You deserve quality content that changes your life and that is exactly what you will get!

you will need adobe lightroom for this course

Your questions answered...

Let me guess: you’re surrounded by piles of hard drives and a "to-edit" list that is growing and becoming more and more overwhelming with every shoot that you do! I get it, and that’s exactly why I want you to consider this as a tool to help you shave hours off of your workflow. If you can commit to working through the lessons and workbook, I’ll give you the steps you need to trim that workflow down. My goal and my heart is to give you your life back! Tip: Start with the bonus - 48 Hour Workflow if you're in the midst of wedding season!

Yes! However, it will not always be available at this price.

Yes. Lightroom is a tool that EVERY photographer should be using in their post-processing. You WILL need Lightroom in order to follow along with this course.

You'll get access immediately! And have access FOREVER, so you can pull up these videos and lessons whenever you need a boost or a refresher course. Watch at your own pace with one lesson a week … or binge-watch the entire course over the weekend! I know you have family needs and other things to tend to, so I want to make sure you have access to these tools forever. Once you enroll, you'll get access the same day! Woo hoo! 

While that’s my sweet spot, this course crosses over for portrait photographers, too! Yes, you’ll hear some wedding language pop up during the lessons since that’s the bread-and-butter of my business, but we’ve had thousands of portrait photographers come through the program over the years, and see big changes in their workflow as well. 

This course covers my most basic knowledge of editing and the fundamentals of Lightroom all the way through to the most ADVANCED editing techniques, curating education and workflow tips. I would recommend this course to any level of photographer simply because of the range of information that is covered.

I have a super tight return policy -- but it’s only because I want to make sure I’m attracting dedicated, serious photographers. I have worked so hard to make this program serve you right where you are, but I certainly understand the fear in buying something you can’t fully experience before purchase--that would give me pause, too! As such, by purchasing, you’re agreeing to my 30-day guarantee: if you complete the entire course and do all the work within 30 days from date of enrollment and aren’t satisfied, just show me your work, let me know why it wasn’t a great fit for you through our survey and I’m happy to buy the course back from you.
