[TESTIMONIAL] John benefits anyone looking to show up more authentically

 

📸 Still sitting on a hard drive full of great photos… and no idea what to actually do with them?

Let’s change that.

This is what Courtney Hopper had to say after our Visual Storytelling Strategy Call:

"A friend and fellow speaker recommended I connect with John to explore how I could better use the photography in my portfolio to reflect my brand and expertise. The idea immediately sounded good — like so many of us, I had a collection of beautiful images just sitting on my hard drive, underutilized and gathering dust.

I booked a two-hour session with John, and I got so much out of it! He guided me through a thoughtful deep dive into my own work, offering not just practical feedback, but also a kind of mini masterclass in visual storytelling. We talked about what makes a photograph sing—not just aesthetically, but emotionally—and how to use imagery with intention, in a way that invites people into your story.

I walked away with a fresh perspective on how to connect with my audience in a more meaningful way. It shifted my mindset from 'look at me' to 'here’s how I can serve.' I’m incredibly grateful for the clarity and inspiration that came from our conversation—and I genuinely believe John’s approach would benefit anyone looking to show up more authentically and powerfully in their work."

🗂 If you’re ready to stop letting good photos go to waste—and start using them to reinforce your message, show your impact, and connect more deeply—let’s talk.

Set up a time and we’ll take it from there.
