I AM READY
Be an ally that takes action and stays informed.
Start serving your LGBTQ clients with expertise.
It's time for you to become part of the change making the wedding industry
* Spoiler! LGBTQ clients are already looking at your website, but something on your site is scaring them away. Don’t worry though. You can fix it!
Are you sitting back just waiting for LGBTQIA+ inquiries?
Imagine . . .
a calendar filled with Gender-diverse dream clients and beautiful lgbtq couples for all your marketing.
You get there by ->
Prepared when an LGBTQ+ inquiry comes in with language and messaging.
Communicating directly to LGBTQ pain points
Being affirming to queer couples without tokenizing
Never feel like your language is turning people away
Actually know what terms and language is used and being ready for conversations
Part of a community to ask questions as they come up
I WANT THIS
Because your brand perfectly speaks to directly to them.
LGBTQ+ CLients are popping into your inbox and exclaiming about how excited they are to find your business.
Your new reality
I WANT IN
That advice you got in a fb group was bad, and that performative allyship is dangerous.
This course digs deeper and works to make your brand a safe space for LGBTQ+ couples attracting them to book with you.
Truth is. . .
it is not enough to do a styled shoot or get one QUEER couple in your portfolio.
Now the wedding industry is changing but not quickly enough. Every week it seems some new case of discrimination surfaces. With every new case of homophobia coming to light I am always shocked to see other industry professional justifying hate with "they have the right to refuse service." It's time for this to end and for the wedding industry to become a safe space. Be a part of the change.
where we're at now
When I got engaged, my wedding would have been illegal. I know first hand what it feels like to reach out to wedding vendors and be scared that they will discriminate. Now, I want to make the wedding industry a safer space one vendor at a time. This course is how we're doing it.
WHY I DO THIS
I am a wedding photographer and industry educator who specializes in working with queer and marginalized couples. I have photographed over 100 couples and have had a packed calendar even in my first year. I have never struggled to attract a gender and sexuality diverse clientele and it's because my brand makes it clear from the beginning, everyone is welcome here. Now I want to show others how to do the same.
