Hey Jacob!

Have you ever been on a shoot and realized that between your nerves, your lack of time, maybe your struggle to connect with your client or the frustration of not being able to find great light that you lose your ability to take a SIMPLE POSE and make it an EXCEPTIONAL POSE?

Sometimes we are just missing one little adjustment, one little tweak, one little piece of creativity to take our images to the next level and in the midst of the normal chaos of a shoot, we can lose our ability to think of what we�re lacking.

Well, I have a solution!!

Hey Jacob!

I�m not sure how long you�ve been in business�but chances are, you�ve experienced this.

Ever sit at your desk and just wonder why you�re not happy?!?!

I�ve been in business for over ten years� and throughout those ten years, I have had moments of happiness and moments of frustration.

It�s almost like I can have two personalities when it comes to my business! Sometimes I�m PROUD and EXCITED about what I�m accomplishing and other times I just want to stay in bed and never open my inbox again!!!

So what causes these two extremes?

PERSPECTIVE.

Most people would say that it�s a business�s job to do two things:

1. Make money
2. Provide solutions for its� customers

But what if your business was more than just the daily grind of emails, payments, editing, more emails, and shooting?

What if your business existed for a greater purpose than just providing a service or product and putting money in your checking account???

My HAPPIEST and most FULFILLING seasons in my business are when I am aware that my gifts, abilities and talents in my business exist solely to bless other people. The fact that I get paid is just icing on the cake.

Think about it, we all live life hoping for a certain outcome in the end, right?

Maybe it�s wealth, maybe it�s family, maybe it�s faith, maybe it�s making an impact on the world�..we all want something to be proud of.

Sometimes I think our perspective gets shifted and we start to forget that our talents and gifts and passions were given to us in order to allow us to MAKE AN IMPACT ON THE WORLD. Whenever I forget that about my life, my business just becomes a �Money maker� instead of a �life changer�. When I�m working in �money maker� mode, that�s all I care about. I lose interest in my IMPACT and I get annoyed with the little things that frustrate me and all of a sudden, I DREAD work.

My worst season in business was when I forgot that my ability to take beautiful pictures and genuinely interact with my clients was my way of changing the world. When I choose to realize that my business exists for a much greater purpose than just putting money in my bank account, I approach EVERY aspect of it differently. I have more patience with emails, I view sessions as an opportunity to make a new couple feel amazing and I view weddings as a way to show a brand new group of people that I care about them.

It sounds SO simple�. but it is profound. Perspective shifts everything.

The amazing thing is, when I shift my perspective, not only am I HAPPIER with my job, I am more PROFITABLE as well! People are attracted to genuine hearts and they can tell if they�re just another booking on your spreadsheet or if you truly desire to have an impact on their life through your work!

So my challenge for you today is to evaluate your heart in your business. Do you need a perspective shift? Are you becoming increasingly more and more frustrated? Are you aware that your gifts were given to you to be a gift to OTHERS???

I�m telling you friends, this is a game changer!!!

-Katelyn

Hey Jacob!

This time next year, what is life going to look like??

I�ll be the first to say that life can throw you curveballs and sometimes it�s hard to even know what to expect a year from now.

HOWEVER�..

That type of uncertainty doesn�t have to be the case when it comes to your business.

Here�s the hard but honest truth:

This time next year, you�re either going to be in the same place where you are now in business, wishing that you had made a change TODAY� or you will have done the hard work to GROW and move into a new season that is pushing you towards your goals.

I know for me, I always SAY that I want to be moving towards my GOALS but the hard part is actually taking ACTION to get there. I can hope and wish and dream of changes in my life but taking the leap towards change is the first hurdle I have to cross.

Maybe for you, your hurdle is that you need to invest in education to take you to the next level like thousands of our students are doing.

Maybe you need to commit to making time every week to work through education you already own!

Maybe you need to decide TODAY that your dream of a business is worth FIGHTING FOR.

Wherever you are�. whatever season you�re in� if I can help you, I would love to.

Our resources and courses are discounted more now than any other time of the year. If this is YOUR YEAR for change, now is the time to invest at our lowest prices.

Don't know where to start? Here is what I recommend!!!:

No matter where you are, you can move towards what you ultimately desire in your life in business. Change is possible. New seasons are coming. We would love to help you get there!

Happy Black Friday friends!!!

Hey Jacob!

Is it just me, or did some Black Friday sales start the day after Halloween?!

It just seemed like so many businesses were trying to �get ahead� that they didn�t even wait until the week of Thanksgiving for their sale to begin!!! Next year, we�ll be seeing Black Friday sales being announced on Labor Day!!

Ok, but in all seriousness, I may give other businesses a hard time but honestly, they are just trying to beat the rush and it�s understandable.

If we�re honest, we're ALL trying to make it through the over-crowdedness of the industry and stand out�. be noticed�. find new clients� make a great living.

�. but how do we do it???

You STAND OUT by doing what other�s aren�t willing to do.

A lot of people will never see the success they long for because they don�t have the right resources, they aren�t willing to invest in education that would transform their business and they aren�t willing to put in the hard work!!!

You have a chance to stand out TODAY.

You have the opportunity to get your hands on some of the industry�s leading educational resources for over 30% OFF!!

Hey Jacob,

We�ll have a sale again next year�.. but if you struggle with the following things, waiting another full year before you start educating your clients may be detrimental to your business!! Do you struggle with �.

- Not enough time for portraits?

- "Getting ready" rooms that have ZERO natural light?

- Family formal lists that are a mile long?

- Never having input in the creation of the wedding day timeline?

- A lack of bridal details to photograph?

- Clients who NEVER want to do a First Look?

If any of these struggles resonate with you, it�s not because you have clients who �don�t get it��. you just haven�t educated them properly!

As SOON as our clients book, we mail them a KJ Bridal Guide and start the education process!!

This is our secret to not struggling with those issues that I mentioned above!!!!

And we�re allowing other photographers to not only use our DESIGN� we�re also allowing photographers to use our EXACT WORDS! You don�t have to write your bridal magazine� you just need to insert your own images!

The KJ Bridal Guide is 30% off� don�t wait 12 months to make this change!!! If you put this off, you�ll literally have to wait until late 2021 to see the effects of your guide on your wedding season!!! That�s almost two years from now! START NOW and make a change for your 2020 wedding season!!!

�I LOVE mine! Since starting to hand mine out, I have had brides asking my opinion on the best wedding timeline & first looks which is a GAME CHANGER for any photographer!�

Nicole Amanda Photography

"Since I've sent them out to about 6 different brides, I've had nothing but positive feedback from each one, and every bride has seen the value in it's information (for example, the First Look!)! It's just so so nice to have something to supply them that shows them that not only do we care about them and getting the best photos of their day, but we're willing to go the extra mile to do that for them."

Courtney J Photo

"We have sent it to about 9 brides and they absolutely LOVE it! We get texts and IG posts about how much they appreciate and love their bridal guides. We send it along with some of our favorite chocolate and a handwritten note! It's been an absolute hit with all our couples! Thanks Katelyn for taking the time to design it and making it so simple for us to put together and use!�"

Hey Jacob,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING from our little Turkeys!!

Now, just to clarify, only TWO of the FOUR are actually ours! The other two belong to my sister and brother-in-law!!!

These precious little people feel like they are all siblings because my sister works for us full time and that means my mom watches the kids everyday at our house while we work. This business is QUITE a family affair and we love it that way!!!

Speaking of family, I hope you are either with yours right now or are traveling to see them soon. We�re getting ready to head to my brother and sister-in-law�s house for Thanksgiving and we can�t wait to see them. By the way, speaking of my sister-in-law, did you know that Morgan works full-time for our business AS WELL?!?!

So why am I sharing this?

Well, I�m just REALLY thankful for our team and I�m grateful for a business that has grown to support not only our household but other parts of my extended family as well. My greatest accomplishment in my business has been watching it change other�s lives�.. and I never envisioned that it would be such a blessing to my own family.

YOU are who we ultimately need to thank.

You believe in us and our educational resources, you trust us to help you grow and you invest in what we create.

We are SO grateful for you.

My hope is that you will take some time this Thanksgiving to celebrate what you�re accomplishing in your business. Choosing to celebrate your wins, no matter how big or how small, is the healthiest and most motivating way to move forward.

We�re proud of you, we�re thankful for you and we hope today is full of joy!!!!

Love,

Katelyn, Michael, Evy, Baby Graham, Emy, Morgan, Mimi, Micah & Baby Harper

Ps. Our Black Friday Sale started and we have been BLOWN AWAY by the response. Somehow, it�s already a record year!!!!! So many photographers are grabbing our courses at $200 OFF PLUS we just re-opened our KJ Business Collection for enrollment (you can invest in the full experience or just build your own Business Course and purchase only the modules you need!).

Hey Jacob!

Isn�t it just the WORST when several work days go by and you feel like your to-do list NEVER changed?

Not ONE thing got marked off?!?!

Wanna know why?

Because you don�t write down �do the extra 12 emails that came in this afternoon� on your to-do list� you don�t write �replace the ink cartridge� on your to-do list�you don�t write �talk to a bride for 2x longer than you anticipated� on your to-do list!!

These tasks creep up on you� they come out of no where and they hinder you from doing the tasks that will make you feel like you�re REALLY moving your business forward!!!!

It�s the battle of MAINTAINING TASKS versus GROWING TASKS and I made a video to help you overcome this battle!!!!

xoxo,

Katelyn

Hey Jacob!

A few days ago I shared with you one of my favorite phrases in business, "Micro Changes produce Macro Results"! After being in business for 10 years, it continues to prove itself to be true!

I want to share one micro change that we made during family portraits that has made a big impact on our wedding days!

Now I know that no photographer LOVES family formals, but we actually view this part of the day as one of the most "value adding" opportunities we have throughout the entire experience!

When you think about it, normally, this part of the day is the only time that photographers interact directly with the parents for an extended period of time. Normally the parents are who have invested in the photography and so this is a VERY important interaction!!!

Because our goal on the wedding day is to love and serve everyone well, we especially want to make sure we take care of the parents of our couple!! When you think about it, parents aren't normally celebrated very often at weddings because all of the focus is on the couple.

The parents are often the ones who paid for the day and who helped mold and shape their son or daughter into who they are and I think they deserve to be recognized for that. The mother of the bride is often one of the main planners of the day and yet she doesn't even get a SPECIAL DANCE!!

I realize that there are a lot of broken marriages at weddings as well. We see so many parents who are divorced or separated and I know that that is very common and we try to be very sensitive to those situations. However, whenever there are couples who are together and present at family formals, we try to take a portrait of JUST the two of them!!

No bride, no groom, just their parents!

We normally say something like "It's not every day that you two get this dressed up!! You need a portrait!"

From our experience, 10 times out of 10, the parents are surprised and taken back by the attention being directed towards them for a second!! They normally thank us and say "Well I didn't think WE were going to get a portrait!!! Thank you!"

This is probably the easiest way to love and serve the parents of your couples!! So next time you're photographing a wedding, take 10 seconds and love on the parents and give them a "Parent Portrait"!! It will make their day and will make an impact!!!

xoxo,

Katelyn

Wouldn't it be awesome if....

• Your RING SHOTS were super BRIGHT and SHARP?!
• Your POSING was natural and had amazing VARIETY!
• Your DETAIL SHOTS were more creative and EDITORIAL?!
• You knew how to get your OFF CAMERA FLASH to actually WORK at each wedding!?
• You weren't NERVOUS before CEREMONIES anymore!?
• You have the ability to shoot ALL BRIDAL PARTY PORTRAITS in just 15 MINUTES?!
• You could WOW your clients with how well you organize the FIRST LOOK?!

Etc. Etc. Etc...

The truth is... all of those things CAN change for you.

You just need help getting there and I understand that because I was once in your shoes. The only way I'm different from you is that when I was LEARNING, I didn't have HELP. There weren't Mini-Guides to download and blog posts to read. I had to learn on my own!!!

That's not the case anymore... you have the resources you need to improve RIGHT at your fingertips!!!

You CAN change and you can change FAST!!!

The awesome thing is that this BUNDLE of 12 MINI-GUIDES is valued at $155.87, but it can be yours for just $99!

Hey Jacob!

We�ve been laying low, staying warm, dealing with some viruses (gotta love life with preschoolers!) and also working on something really exciting!!!

With the help of some of our closest friends (and most trusted companies) in the industry, we recently released the news that KJ ALL ACCESS can be COMPLETELY FREE if our members fully take advantage of all of their MEMBERSHIP PERKS!!!!!!!

YEAAAAA!!!!

We have over $150 worth of Membership Perks just waiting for our active KJ All Access members and people are FREAKING. OUT.

WHY?

Because when we told our current users about this new part of KJ ALL ACCESS, our students started doing the math�..

$7.80 OFF SHOWIT�S MONTHLY PLAN

$10 OFF CLOUDSPOT�S MONTHLY PLAN

$7 OFF DUBSADO�S MONTHLY PLAN

That�s $25 of monthly savings!!!

And how much is KJ ALL ACCESS??? Only $29!!

Then, when you include $10 off a CG Pro Prints order AND $149 OFF the KISS ALBUMS Starter Kit, KJ ALL ACCESS IS FREE!!!!!!

If you can�t tell by all of my ALL CAPS and exclamation marks�� We�re THRILLED about this!!

I don�t know what I love more, the savings for our active members or the fact that we are getting to partner with our friends who are doing awesome things in the industry!!!

If you don�t know what these amazing companies offer, let me explain why WE USE THEM everyday in our business.

Let�s start with our NEWEST member to the KJP family�..

I�m thrilled to FINALLY share that we have a new BUSINESS MANAGEMENT TOOL that we�re obsessed with!!!!!!

As of the end of 2019, we are officially DUBSADO USERS and we LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

If you don�t know our back story, we have been very VERY picky about this part of our business. We were unhappy for years with what we had been using, we were pursued by some bigger companies to partner with them and NOTHING felt like the right fit.

Nothing.

Until now�� we love Dubsado and we finally committed!!!!.....

• DUBSADO (20% OFF) : It keeps us paid, organized and professional! Dubsado allows us to manage the process of creating booking proposals, book clients, invoice clients, sign contracts, create & manage questionnaires, track account progress, house client information and so much more!! What I love more than anything is that I know that this company is run by amazing people who are actively working to make this product the best it can possibly be for its� users. (One of the founders was actually a past KJ Workshop attendee!!! Woohoo!!! So proud!!!!!!!) If you�re unsatisfied with your client management system like we used to be, give DUBSADO a chance! You're gonna love it!!! (Use this CODE: "kjfamily50" to get 50% OFF your first month or first YEAR if you're ready to make the switch too!!!) Current Dubsado users who are also KJ All Access members can receive 20% off their plans!!

• CLOUDSPOT (25% OFF) : How we provide our clients with their galleries! When I capture engagement sessions and weddings, we deliver our client�s images through Cloudspot! Cloudspot provides us with a way to not only deliver digital images in a professional way but also SELL prints from a professional lab, promote sales & discounts on products with banners & emails, easily create galleries for vendors, create mobile galleries so that my clients can easily access their photos on their phones and so much more!

• SHOWIT (20% OFF) : Our trusted website company for over ten years! Can you believe it?! In a day where technology is constantly changing and people never seem to keep a website for longer than a couple of years, we have been loyal Showit users and we can�t say enough about why we love them! Showit provides creative businesses with the freedom to custom design websites without limits!! Their drag-and-drop technology is amazing but what we love even more than the product they provide is their team and what they stand for. Their customer support is top notch and we know they always have their users best interests in mind!

• KISS BOOKS (50% OFF Starter Kit and 1-on-1 with Album Specialist) : Our preferred album company! Our preferred album company! Like each of the other companies mentioned above, we believe in the leadership of this brand more than anything else. These people are friends of ours that we trust do life with!! We know that KISS is not only dedicated to providing a simple yet high-quality album experience but that they are also dedicated to educating photographers on how to be successful at selling albums as well!!

• CG PRO PRINTS ($10 OFF a 16x20 Acrylic Pro) : Our canvas company!

If you're a KJ All Access member who takes advantage of all of these member perks, KJ All Access essentially pays for itself through these savings!

The older I get the more I learn about myself.

I�ve learned that I need an equal dose of motivational encouragement AND reality to make my big dreams happen. I�ve also realized through the years that often times I don�t dream big enough.

So how do you find the happy medium?

Well, I�m not sure.

I�m not an �expert dreamer�, but I do have a few thoughts on the topic!!

We had the honor of celebrating a HUGE accomplishment with some of our dear friends not too long ago! They came to us with their big ideas, and we started brainstorming and problem solving. Michael and I were just a sounding board, but we loved getting to be a part of the process!!

They wanted to start a mobile coffee bar like they had seen in Alaska and in the Pacific Northwest. Mobile coffee bars aren�t super common on the east coast unless you�re in the heart of a larger city, and so starting this adventure in our little home town was definitely a risk.

They started to slowly gather details on what needed to happen in order to make this trailer a reality; health code regulations, expenses, gas, a generator, a place with permission to park and do business, hours, menus, etc.

So much goes into a dream� and it�s not as simple as just hearing �You can DO IT!!!!!!�.

Motivation is great, but when the rubber hits the road, you need a dose of reality in order to realistically make your dreams happen.

Well the reality for this crew was that they didn�t have the means to pay for traditional advertising. If they wanted to make a name for themselves and have reoccurring customers who love them and are incredibly loyal to them, their marketing wasn�t going to come from billboards, ads and a flashy neon sign on the side of the road.

When I started my business back in 2008 I was in a similar situation.

I didn�t have the money to market like other larger more established businesses were doing and you know what?

That worked in my FAVOR!!!

I started marketing PERSONALLY, and I started creating my own TRIBE!!

If you have ever read the book TRIBES by Seth Godin, you know what I�m talking about! (If you haven�t read that book, you need to!) TRIBES have been around forever. You may not realize it, but you have tribes in your own life!

Most people have MULTIPLE tribes.

For us, we have an industry tribe, a college tribe, a family tribe, a church tribe, etc. etc. These are groups of people who are all connected to one another because of a shared idea or experience! Within these tribes we have a �place� and a �purpose�, and this makes us want to be further connected to our tribes!!

So if people are naturally forming �tribes� in their lives, why don�t we use this to our advantage in our business?!

This is what we encouraged The Mix House to do!! It�s very easy to establish a tribe of your own when you run your small business very personally!!

Here are the THREE THINGS you have to remember when forming your tribe:

#1 Run your business personally! If you have zero personal connection in your marketing, your future tribe members won�t have enough of a personal connection with you to trust you and become a die-hard fan! You have to put yourself out there!

#2 Tell your STORY! It�s easy to think that your story doesn�t matter, but you only think that because you have never shared it and seen the fruit from it! Don�t hold back! Share why you�re passionate about your dream and what led you to this point in your business!

#3 Share your wins! The more that you see your tribe developing, the more you should share those little wins! The more wins that you share, the more people will realize what it means to be a tribe member!!

Your tribe HAS to be connected to a LEADER, to EACH OTHER and to a SHARED IDEA!

For us, our brides have to have a personal connection to ME (the leader) and to one another (other KJ Brides). The more of a connection you can form the stronger and more desirable the tribe will be! Our Tribe�s �Shared Idea� is that our clients love being a part of our growing business!

They feel like they are a part of it and that they are contributing to it!

This is what has happened at The Mix House! When they started with their BRIGHT ORANGE trailer, they didn�t shy away from sharing their story, their hearts and their dreams for this new business. Everyone who came in contact with them had an opportunity to fall in love with them, and because they serve people on such a personal level their customers became fans and then quickly became TRIBE members!!

If you allow people to be a part of your business, they will celebrate your wins with you because they feel like they are part of the team!!

Hi Friends!

Michael and I have found that when we have arguments, the most PRODUCTIVE moments of our fights are at the end when the anger subsides, and we both slow down and really think through what�s going on in our heads and in our hearts! Our life coach recently told us that�..

�We can either investigate our thoughts or suffer from our insecurities!�

Wow. Talk about TRUTH! Every marriage, friendship and relationship in general could benefit from that nugget of wisdom!!

So what does that truth have to do with a photographer on a wedding day??

Well, after a decade of photographing weddings and over 8 years of educating photographers, I have found that because of the STRESS that we undergo on a wedding day, there are several lies and insecurities that can creep up on us and really put a negative spin on the day if we�re not careful!

As photographers, I think we ALL may need to remind ourselves of a few things before each wedding day in order to save ourselves from falling victim to our own insecurities!!! Read over them before you begin capturing someone�s once-in-a-lifetime moments!! Here we go!

#1 Remember : You can let stress TRANSFORM you or you can TRANSMIT it onto others.

Instead of letting the stress of the day overtake you, make a conscious decision to rise above it. When you allow yourself to be consumed by the stress, it will be evident to everyone around you!

#2 Remember : Be RESOURCEFUL, instead of RESENTFUL.

They aren�t frustrated with YOU. Wedding days are stressful. That�s just a fact of life and that fact is never going to change. Recognize that whether it�s the planner, the florist, the MOB or the bride herself that may be short with you, their actions are more than likely not stemming from something you did. They are a result of the stress of the day. Try to be a resource in the midst of the negativity instead of being resentful.

#3 Remember : Believe the BEST in people.

There have been SO many times when Michael has had to remind me of this� especially when we�re working with other vendors that just. don�t. get. it. However, the truth is, being annoyed and frustrated with other vendors is a poor reflection of my character to our couple and to anyone else who is working with us.

#4 Remember : View the PRESSURE as a PRIVILEGE.

This only happens once. We�re responsible for capturing such sacred and special moments for this couple and their families. It�s an honor. When you feel the pressure and the weight of this job, remember that a lot of jobs with a whole lot less responsibility also have way less reward at the end of the day.

#5 Remember : It�s not DISTRUST, it�s DESPERATION.

I have to work really hard to not get defensive when someone tells me what I should be shooting on a wedding day. Hearing guest and parents say �Oh, I hope you got that!� or �Hey take this picture!� can get on our nerves but the truth is, the urgency and neediness of these people is coming from a place of desperation. They want to remember this day. They want the best for the couple and they don�t realize how offensive those statements are to a professional photographer. Let it go and remember that you know what you�re doing. You know more than the uncle Bob with his massive flash that is blinding everyone on the dance floor. You know more than the bridesmaid who re-styled the bridal details and is asking you to take one more shot. You know more than the overbearing dad who has asked you a million times if you �got the shot�. Just have patience with them. Take a deep breath and realize that they are just excited to be a part of the day. Uncle Bob is finding a lot of joy as he snaps away on the dance floor. The bridesmaid who is re-styling the details probably has a lifelong dream of being a wedding planner and the dad who keeps asking you if you �got the shot� just adores his baby girl�. and maybe he doesn�t distrust you� maybe he just really wants to make sure he will have the memories of giving his little girl away to hold onto forever, because he can�t believe she�s grown up and married.

Investigating your thoughts and your response to stress on a wedding day will DRAMATICALLY impact how much JOY you find in your job!!

I want to share a quick story with you ....

We were on vacation once and my whole family was out on a little rental boat on a lake. We stopped for lunch in the middle of the lake and when we decided it was time to start driving around again, the boat WOULDN'T START!!! For the life of us, we couldn't get it working.

We gave up trying to fix it and we put on life jackets and sadly started swimming and pulling the boat in. We just knew that the whole motor was messed up and it was too much work to fix it.

However, once we got back to the dock, we realized that my Dad's knee had hit the KILL SWITCH!!!! The boat was completely FINE! Vacation wasn't OVER! It was one simple button! This one little "click" fixed everything!!

This story makes me think about my business for three reasons...

1. Sometimes I jump to the worst case scenario and think that I need to do something DRASTIC in order to fix issues!

2. Normally my biggest issues are caused by SMALL problems.

3. If I took time and invested into paying attention to the small aspects of my business, I would move forward and avoid unnecessary stress that cripples me!! Vacation wasn't over!! We just needed to pay attention to our boat at a micro level!

If you haven't paid attention to the LITTLE things in your business, you could be missing out on the key to fixing your most common struggles!!

This is why I created MINI-GUIDES!!!

I wanted to take some of my BEST tips and advice on micro topics and make that education available for photographers who need help with the micro changes in their business!!! You don't need to spend 10 years learning these things like I did!!! You can learn it all NOW!!!

INTRODUCING THE MINI-GUIDE BUNDLE!! .....

We've combined all of our best advice on 12 topics into a BUNDLE of education that will transform your approach to the wedding day and your image quality!!

12 MINI-GUIDES that are $12.99 each should be $155.88

We have a SPECIAL, you can get the Mini-Guide Bundle for only $99!!!

You don't have to stay "stuck"! Take a step and start changing your business one micro change at a time!

Hey Jacob!

Surprise!!!! WE HAVE OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED A YOUTUBE CHANNEL!!!

There are some of you forever-faithful, long time followers who are really going to resonate with this announcement.

If you�re new to the KJ Brand, this is exciting for you too but let me give you a little back story on why this is such a big deal���

In 2008, I started blogging.

My business EXPLODED and my BLOG was the heartbeat of my business for close to 7 years!

I blogged every single week and I was more than dedicated, I was OBSESSED! Not only was this marketing system working but it quickly became more than just a way to drum up business, it was a way to connect with people, share my life, tell our story and permanently save memories that I will cherish for a lifetime!

Enter 2017.

I had a scare and emergency surgery at 9 months pregnant to remove an aggressive tumor in my hand and my blogging came to a screeching HALT.

Then, a month later, I had my first baby�.. AND LIFE WOULD NEVER BE THE SAME.

I loved my business but I loved my baby more.

I loved blogging but I wasn�t obsessed anymore�. Instead, I was obsessed with a chunky baby who had her daddy�s smile.

Then, we got pregnant again and lost our second child, Baby James, at 31 weeks due to complications from Down Syndrome.

Then, we got pregnant 3 months later and had our rainbow baby!

Throughout the INSANE CRAZINESS of the last three years of my life, I never stopped blogging my clients and showcasing my work�.

BUT�.

�. I did take a huge step back from the personal side of my blogging.

This was hard for me. It hurt my pride that I wasn�t motivated like I once was but my love for my new role as �momma� meant more to me than anything.

I realize it�s normal for this to happen. For many, the season of having kids is when businesses naturally transition and scale back�.

However, I always knew I wasn�t done.

I always knew that God wasn�t done with using our life, my gifts and our story to help inspire, educate and encourage other people. �. The issue was, the blogging atmosphere wasn�t what it once was, my time was limited and I just didn�t know how to get it done.

Enter Tyler Herrinton.

Building and growing a Youtube Channel has been on his radar for YEARS and so I�m not sure who�s more excited, me or him! Ha!

We�re THRILLED that we have a fun, efficient, accessible and consistent way to share ALL. THE. THINGS.

The content that you used to see shared through traditional blog posts will now be coming at ya� through our Youtube Channel and we DON�T WANT YOU TO MISS IT!!!!

We�ve pre-loaded a whole collection of BRAND NEW, never-before seen videos on the channel and we�ll be sharing new content EACH WEEK for this first year!!!

So be sure to SUBSCRIBE so that you don�t miss videos like��.

We�re thrilled this is happening and it�s out into the world!!! I may not fit the mold of the typical Youtuber but I�m committed to getting better and better at sharing, encouraging and educating you all through this platform this year!!!

Everything about my life, my marriage, and my business has changed since 2017. I have so much I want to share and so get excited because we have THREE YEARS of backlogged ideas and content coming your way in 2020!!!!!

3. Do you struggle with photographing the GROOM at the beginning of the wedding day? It can be so awkward and forced�. but it doesn�t have to be! Here�s a BRAND NEW YOUTUBE VIDEO where Michael is sharing the THREE TIPS to help you feel more confident and natural when photographing the GROOM!

See what I mean?! SO MUCH TO GET EXCITED ABOUT!!

Before I go, let me explain just a little about WHY the KJ Bridal Guide (and now the KJ Grooms Guide) is the absolute BEST way to transform your client�s experience (AND SAVE YOU TIME!).

Over 2800 photographers are HAVE STOPPED ANSWERING A BAZILLION CLIENT QUESTIONS in their inbox and are working with clients that CHOOSE FIRST LOOKS, who UNDERSTAND WHY YOU NEED A WINDOW in the getting ready space and are IMPRESSING THEIR NEWLY-BOOKED CLIENTS with a professionally designed and worded bridal magazine full of their best work!!!

When you EDUCATE your clients as SOON as they book then you get the first opportunity to INFLUENCE their wedding planning decisions. We NEVER have horrible timelines, brides who don�t trust us or many of the normal wedding day headaches that many photographers face on a regular basis.

WHY?

Because as SOON as our brides book, they receive this amazing magazine in the mail! Just take a look at this TABLE OF CONTENTS and all of the topics that are included!! :

Now, the same impact that our KJ Bridal Guide has had on our brides (and tens of thousands of other brides around the world!) is available for your GROOMS!!!!! YEAAA!!! I FINALLY created a �KJ Grooms Guide '' and I�m making it available to YOU!!! If you or your second shooter struggle to connect with your Grooms and find that part of the couple�s experience to be forced and awkward, THIS GROOMS GUIDE will help immensely!

It�s not that Grooms aren�t on board with having their pictures taken, it�s that they were never prepped beforehand! We�re fixing that!!

Maybe you�ve been using the KJ Bridal Guide for YEARS and you�re wanting to upgrade to the new version PLUS add the KJ GROOMS GUIDE as well, we have a special discount for you!!! :

I don�t want you to only have beautifully designed spreads, I want to make this as easy as possible and so my WORDS are included as well! All you have to do is insert your own images to both the KJ BRIDAL GUIDE and the brand new KJ GROOMS GUIDE!!!

BOTH the KJ Bridal Guide and KJ Grooms Guide are on SALE and are available NOW!

Also, don�t forget to watch our brand new Youtube video from Michael!!

What would your upcoming wedding and portrait season look like if you didn�t have to deal with the struggles you had all last season??

Hey Jacob!

Michael and I have had a relationship coach for our marriage for over four years (BEST decision ever!), and one of the most powerful things she says to us is �If there could be another outcome, another opportunity, another possibility in the way you are relating to one another�. would you want to know??�. Of course we always say �Yes��. but it�s the hard work that follows saying �yes� that takes us from our current reality to living into the ultimate vision of what we want for our marriage.

I�m asking you the same thing about your business�.

.If there was a way to make it easier� a way to fix the strongholds that leave you feeling like you�re just not getting it� another way to approach your sessions and your editing that would leave you feeling confident and proud of your work� would you want to know????

Saying �Yes� to that question is thankfully a lot easier than Michael and I saying yes in marriage counseling!

Why?

Because I have already laid out all of the answers to help you correct the technical troubles you�re having when you�re shooting. Instead of having to dig deep and do the work yourself like we do when we�re working through stuff relationally, you have a pre-made solution at your fingertips.

Just like marriage counseling�. you have to make the decision to want to CHANGE what you�re currently dealing with.

That�s the hardest part. It�s easy to say �Well, it�s not that bad�I�m normal� I�m sure other photographers have the same problems so it�s fine.� Ya know�. we spent the first 5 years of our marriage saying the same exact thing�.. but then we hit a point where Michael and I KNEW that we were meant for MORE in our marriage to one another. We knew there was something better out there for us�. so we invested in the change we wanted to see and the results have been incredible. This decision didn�t just affect us, it�s changing our entire family and it�s a beautiful thing.

You may be in a similar place in your business.

You tell yourself it would be nice for things to change but other people probably struggle the same way and so it�s fine to stay with the status quo�. but what if there was so. much. more. waiting for you?? What if you had answers and solutions and success just waiting at your fingertips.

Would you want to see how different it could be???? We�re giving you a chance to find out�. and you can save 20%, 30% or even 40% instead of investing full price!! But this sale ends TOMORROW!

The technical stuff you need to know is�.

1. There is a money-back guarantee for our courses, so you have literally nothing to lose.

2. Our courses are known in the industry as being �FLUFF-FREE�� meaning it�s not a bunch of simple slides and info that you�ve already heard!

3. Yes, there are payment plans for our courses! We�d love to have you join us while the KJ Courses are the most affordable that they will ever be!!!

4. The KJ Bridal Guide has been updated and has 18 new pages!!!!

5. We made a new resource, The KJ Grooms Guide!! 25+ fully customizable pages to make your grooms feel prepared and excited!

xoxo,

Katelyn

Ps. If you want to hear more about our experience with relationship coaching and how our marriage has grown because of if, Michael and I would be willing to share more about that in the future. There isn�t anything magical about what we�ve been doing� but there is something incredible what happens when you decide to show up and fight for what you want!

Hey Jacob,

Are you in the midst of your slow season???

Before you know it, your slow season will be over and you�ll be a few days away from your first wedding or portrait session of the season�. and you may wonder�.

�Am I going to pick up where I left off or will I actually be BETTER this year?�

I used to worry about that as a photographer, was I going to hit a PLATEAU.

I worried that there would be a time in my career where I would be stagnant in my work.

How sad would that be if I could never improve beyond a certain point?!

How terrifying would it be if I hit a plateau in my work but yet the rest of the industry seemed to be making STRIDES in their work and in their businesses!?!

This is a real fear that I paid attention to and took action on.

Instead of just bingeing on Netflix during my off-seasons, I dedicated time and effort into LEARNING new things and GROWING in my technical ability�.

And you know what happened?

I IMPROVED.

EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR.

I became better and better at my craft and the best part?? PEOPLE NOTICED!!!

So HOW do you improve and avoid the daunting plateau that plagues a lot of photographers???

You allow someone to TEACH you.

Sure, you could go out and do some practice shoots� but what EXACTLY are you going to PRACTICE? What new techniques are you going to try?

How are you going to actually avoid drawing blanks in POSING? How are you going to suddenly get better at having CONSISTENT editing in your images? How are you going to all of a sudden be able to find GREAT light no matter your location??? What new marketing techniques are you going to try and how do you know they will actually WORK?

Let me help you! I have created incredibly successful online courses that cover everything from consistent editing, mastering natural lighting, perfecting your posing & building a purposeful and profitable business!!!

Don�t WASTE your off-season just HOPING you�ll be better for this coming wedding and portrait season!!!

This downtime is actually the GREATEST opportunity you have all year!! That�s why we�re excited to surprise our online photographer friends with a way to transform your technical skills!! ALL KJ COURSES are on sale for Valentines Day!!!!!

I�m so excited to announce that the KJ SWEETHEART SALE is LIVE and you can take $200 OFF OF ANY KJ COURSE!!!!!!!

Not only are our courses on sale but our ENTIRE SHOP is on sale!!! That means best-selling resources like:

The KJ Pricing Kit, The *recently updated* KJ Bridal Guide 3.0, & the BRAND NEW KJ Grooms Guide are on sale TOO!! These resources are transforming photographer�s businesses around the globe and now is your opportunity to give them a chance to transform yours!!

This sale isn�t going to last long! We�re excited to discount EVERYTHING in honor of Valentine Day and we hope you feel the love from our KJ team! Have a wonderful day and we can�t wait to see what you accomplish with your new resources!!!

Xoxo,

Katelyn

Hey Jacob!

We all experience it at some point.

Awkward moments during a shoot are normal.

I actually tell my couples during their engagement session that if they DON�T feel awkward during the first 20 minutes, I will be shocked! It allows them to feel a little uncertain while also knowing that they aren�t weird!

However, this �awkward-ness� should end QUICKLY!

After teaching my couples the FOUR CORE POSES from our Posing Evolution, they normally start to get the hang of it rather quickly. I�ve noticed though, that even after the first 20 minutes, there is a point in the session where everything changes and their confidence hits a whole new level! Sometimes it�s within the first 20 minutes and sometimes it�s after the outfit change.

No matter when this new level of confidence hits, we�re always on a roll afterwards!

I call this moment the �BREAKING POINT�!

I think what happens during the �Breaking Point� is that our couple realizes the following things:

1. This isn�t that bad! I�m not even nervous!

2. We�re actually pretty good at this!

3. I can�t believe I�m enjoying this!!

So many people dread photo shoots because they have the worst expectations. They think it�s going to be awkward, forced and miserable and it doesn�t have to be!

My goal is to make the BREAKING POINT happen as soon as possible!

Here are 5 tips to making your couples comfortable as soon as possible!!

1. Start by explaining that they don�t need to be experts! You�ll educate them along the way and you have ZERO expectations!

2. Praise them constantly no matter what! They need to know that they are doing a good job. OVER-PRAISE them! You can never encourage them enough!

3. Find �their pose� as soon as possible. This is the pose that they mastered the quickest and that looks the best on them!!

4. Recognize their weak areas and subtly avoid them.

5. Be DIRECT and CLEAR in your posing instructions to ensure that they are confident! If you�re rambling and aren�t speaking clearly, this will affect their confidence in you AND in their posing skills!

I hope this is helpful!! If you want to see this happen LIVE on a wedding day or shoot, we have a resource for you!!! You can actually watch me shoot as a virtual third shooter through our KJ All Access Membership!

It�s universal.

Every wedding photographer knows that family formals are never the FAVORITE part of the day but they are so important!

We actually think that family formal time is a VITAL PART of the timeline for wedding photographers, because it�s our best chance of making a great impression with the families and serving them well.

One way that we can serve them well is to make family formals FAST!

This part of the day doesn�t have to take 30-45 minutes. At least once at every wedding, we�re complimented on how quickly we roll through these portraits!

So what�s the hack to making this happen faster?

I was teaching a group of photogs and realized that we have been missing out on something that would save SO much time and yet require very little work!! If you want to speed up family formals, you need to gather the family members FASTER! So! Here�s the idea�..

PRINT THREE COPIES OF THE

FAMILY FORMAL LIST!!!

I know, so simple. But think about it!

If you have three copies of all of the family members that you�ll need to gather, you�ll be able to hand one copy to one member of the bride�s side and one copy to one member of the groom�s side.

This will save so much time because you won�t have any confusion over who is on the list and who needs to be gathered.

If there are additional family members who may need to be in a portrait later, you can encourage them to gather together during the reception!!

Woohoo! Go get em� friends!

Happy shooting at your next wedding!

xoxo,

Katelyn

Ps. If you�re wondering how we get family formal lists before the wedding, it�s a part of our Bride and Groom Questionnaire. If you want to know what else is in the B&G Questionnaire, you can download it for FREE HERE!

Hey Jacob!

It�s Thursday!

That means we have a BRAND NEW YOUTUBE video ready for you!!!

Tell me if this sounds like you�..

You�re a photographer�. You have a nice camera�. You are naturally talented� You can take beautiful images that leave people in awe��

But you NEVER USE YOUR CAMERA in your everyday life.

You NEVER take pictures with your family with your REAL camera.

You say you want to, but it never happens.

It�s so sad, but SO many photographers struggle with this and I get it. It can be stressful, overwhelming and seemingly unrealistic to ever find a way to use your DSLR in everyday life.

BUT THERE IS HOPE!!!

I have some tips and tricks to share with you that will allow you to start using your DSLR camera in your everyday life without STRESSING YOU out!

This video is a part of an on-going series that I�m creating to help photographers creatively capture their own lives with their BIG cameras and actually SAVE a visual legacy for their families to cherish forever!!

I hope you ENJOY!!!!

xoxo,

Katelyn

Ps. Leave me some comments and share where you struggle with FAMILY DOCUMENTATION!!!!!

Hey Jacob!

We thought about this week's Youtube video.. Should it be COVID-19 focused? Should we speak to what everyone is feeling and fearful of?

We think there is definitely a time and place to talk about that stuff again. If you're wanting to know 5 ways to THRIVE and not just SURVIVE these next couple of months, THIS FREE DOWNLOAD will help!

But today.. we're just going to learn how to be a better photographer..

Because honestly, I think it may be nice to not talk about everything happening around us and just have a few minutes to think about something else. Right?

This video stems from a throwback blog post that I did years ago and when Tyler suggested that I do a video on this, I cringed a little...

• Isn't this content too old?
• Hasn't everyone heard this before?
• Is this old news?

But you know what???

I started filming it (and you'll be able to see what I'm talking about when you watch it.) and I started getting SO EXCITED.

Why?

Because I was instantly reminded...

THIS IS WHAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW.. THIS IS WHAT CATAPULTED ME INTO BUSINESS GROWTH AND SET ME APART!

If you can take these three tips and actually apply them to your shoots, you WILL SEE A MASSIVE shift in your client experience! I'm so excited to share this brand new Youtube Video with you!!!! :

Hey Friend!

Yesterday we sent out a lot of different information.

We announced our "STAY APART - LEARN TOGETHER" FB Live Series that we'll be hosting in our KJ Education FB Group in the coming weeks. (The fIrst one will be MONDAY at 2pm EST!)

We also shared this free guide and Youtube Video sharing 5 in-depth ways to THRIVE during this season instead of just SURVIVE.

We also shared that our ACTIVE KJ ALL ACCESS MEMBERS now have access to over two years of episodes in the KJ Vault to binge watch and learn from as they spend their days at home during the COVID-19 crisis. The response to this has been..

OVERWHELMING & INCREDIBLE.

Our team stayed up until midnight last night responding to emails of gratitude, emails for re-activation, and surprisingly, emails about buying courses. We didn't expect this..

For those who are desperate to learn, grow and transform your technical abilities during this down-time, we want to honor your dedication to improve. We've been making so many exceptions for students these last five days who want to take our courses but need some help financially. We decided to make these exceptions available to anyone interested in furthering their education at this time. Right now, ALL KJ Courses are $200 OFF.

If you purchased a KJ Courses in the last 7 days, please email us and we will refund you the difference so that you can have this discounted price as well.

I realize that MANY are not able to invest in courses right now. If you are wanting to learn and grow during this downtime but aren't able to invest in a course, we have over 4 hours of education plus a 20+ Min editing demo that you can watch for FREE. This is a full episode of KJ ALL ACCESS that we're making available to anyone who has yet to try All Access.

I love you all. I'm dedicated to helping you as much as I can. I want all of us to show up on the other side of this epidemic PROUD of how we handled it.. STRONGER than before it began.. More CONFIDENT as a business owner because we fought hard in the midst of uncertainty.

We can do this.. And we're going to do it together.

Xoxo,

Katelyn
