A COACHING SERIES FOR WEDDING CREATIVES
“I’m at a loss for words. Tory and Lauren are geniuses.
Over the last 5 years, I’ve waded my way through the wedding industry the way many of us do - alone. While I’m proud of what I was able to do in 5 years on my own, these last several weeks it feels like someone dumped kerosene and tossed a lit match onto my business - in the best way.
As soon as Tory announced SESSIONS, I knew I had to jump on the amazing opportunity. As a huge fan of Smith + James, their brand, and their vibe within the industry (pure honesty, folks), I had a feeling Tory and Lauren could help me flush out some of the more nitty gritty details to help propel me forward. And they certainly delivered.
I’m walking away with clarity that I’ve never felt before. I now know exactly who I am, what my brand stands for, and most importantly, who my ideal client is. I’m incredibly excited to put this newfound insight to work in my business. I know it will be invaluable.”
“Tory has a true gift when it comes to empowering others to share their unique voice and perspective with the world. Each time we met for Sessions, I learned new things about myself because of her thoughtful, in-depth research and insight into my brand. She used my personal goals as a foundation for growth and helped dial in who my ideal client is to make my overall marketing strategy feel so much more clear and pointed. I walked away from Sessions feeling so empowered, and left with a solid list of actionable items that made me more excited than ever to share my work and keep investing in my vision as an artist and business owner. Tory helped me come up with a plan with such warmth and optimism. If you’re looking for support in finding very specific, actionable ways to work toward your true north, this is worth every bit of the investment. ”
“I can’t say enough good things about SESSIONS and TORY!! I have invested in a lot of services to hone in who I am talking to, who my client avatar is, and to be completely honest, I have never been able to get or understand myself who I want to cater to- who is my person... I know exactly when we work with our dream couples, I am like - “That’s it! That is who I love!” But when I have sat down in the past, I just can’t get it right on paper so I can actually market and attract more of our own ideal clients.
Insert, SESSIONS and Tory, and TA-DA! I have never felt so confident and so clear in who I am talking to. As we met, I felt it all coming together. She is so transparent on what’s fluff and what to focus on. She also gave me the most amazing ideas for my website, that I would never have thought of, and really come in clutch for really expressing who we are talking to and who we want to work with.
If you’re at a crossroads, feel like nothing has really worked or changed your business and you’re looking for real guidance... BOOK SESSIONS! You will not regret it! ”
“Sessions is the f*ing BEST! I don’t think we’ve ever been as fired up to work on our business than during our time with Tory and Lauren. The way they workshop ideas and brand strategy is not only genius, but a great time. They genuinely understood who we are and what our work is, and they gave us the permission to run with it. We feel excited about what’s ahead for us, and we are so grateful to Sessions for giving us the clarity to boldly move forward in the industry. The support and inspiration you find during Sessions is honestly off the charts. We wish we could do it all over again!”
“My time with Tory and Lauren was truly powerful. The container that they have created is both intimate and expansive. I felt seen, validated and empowered. I am more confident in the right action steps to take, to let me freak flag fly and to stand in my power! I now recognize my unique voice and feel that there is a seat for me at the table. I’m reinvigorated and get so excited visualizing the future of my business. Through our work in SESSIONS, I feel more clarity in my brand voice, ideal client, visual identity, which relationships to foster and a concrete plan for growth in my business. It is such an amazing gift to be truly seen but it is one that we all deserve. Tory and Lauren are masters of intuition, decisive action and creativity. My time with them was nothing short of magical and this is me singing their gifts from the rooftops. ”
“SESSIONS with Tory and Lauren has been one of the very best things I have done for my business. Not only did they help me elevate my brand but they also helped me gain the confidence to help step into the luxury space. It was amazing hearing from a planner’s point of view what makes them want to work with a photographer and how to get to that point. We went over brand identity, we did a portfolio review, we discussed Instagram plan of actions, how to improve my website and so much more. I am always super scared about putting myself in vulnerable positions (especially when it involves learning about how to improve my business – I take things way too personally haha) but Tory and Lauren were the kindest ever, so easy to talk to and helped me in a way that left me feeling inspired and excited! These weekly calls were literal magic for my business. I cannot recommend SESSIONS enough.”
