Your clients deserve to LOVE how they look in their photos, and nailing skin tones is a major step in that direction. 

And we hate to say it, but you can't fix every skin tone issue in Lightroom. But achieving gorgeous, glowing skin tones straight-out-of-camera? That wins every time.

You can’t risk freezing up when you’re dealt less-than-ideal light.

Your clients deserve the best.

Glowing skin tones—for ALL your clients

Everyone—from the palest to the deepest skin tone—deserves to look and feel amazing in your images. You need the skills to confidently photograph anyone who steps in front of your lens.

Problem-solving the unavoidable

Even the best photographers need a little help from Lightroom to perfect their images. But where do you begin with fixing skin tones with editing?

Quit the trial-and-error

Because you have clients to serve NOW. You don’t have time to figure it out on your own.

And getting gorgeous skin tones, for every client, every time? That shouldn’t be a mystery.

Imagine having the exact formula to achieve stunning skin tones straight out of your camera. No more endless adjustments or second-guessing your settings. You’d confidently navigate any lighting situation, knowing you can deliver flawless results every time. 
With the perfect blend of in-camera techniques and Lightroom finesse, you'll transform your workflow and consistently exceed your clients' expectations. They'll see their best, authentic selves reflected in your images, and you'll be the go-to photographer they rave about.

It took us years of trial & error to figure out exactly how to nail skin tones every.single.time. 

We’ve taught our approach to getting gorgeous skin tones to hundreds of photographers because we truly believe that everyone deserves to see themselves accurately represented in photographs. And the skills and know-how to do that shouldn’t be a secret.

QUIT STRUGGLING WITH SKIN TONES—ONCE AND FOR ALL.

But now? We consistently get inquiries & bookings because of our ability to authentically capture skin tones for our diverse clientele.

I still need to go back and watch the rest of Chapter One of the Skin Tones Glowup, but I'm well on my way to nailing those tricky sessions. Y'all are incredible teachers!”
