Mentorship

Welcome Fellow Photographer!

YOUR FULL CREATIVE POTENTIAL

When I started photography in 2010, I started from the very bottom. I did not go to college for photography, I had some knowledge from just having a camera and photographing friends and things growing up. I am completely self taught, and although I am grateful to be where I am today, I wish I had had someone to help me along with the process. A couple years ago, I decided to begin mentoring new and beginner photographers! It has been such a wonderful experience! I really enjoy helping people learn their niche and grab it by the horns and run with it!! 

are you a photographer?

The
Mentorship program

The mentorship is reserved for those who are serious about being their own boss and running their own wedding photography business! Successful candidates have a passion for photography, they want to take their business to the next level. This year long mentorship includes, attending and shooting all booked weddings with Shayla. 24/7 (yes! well kinda!) access to Shayla for questions with real answers or help with anything! The in's and out's of everything regarding running a successful business: social media, google, website and design, taxes, scary clients and more! (haha, a little light humor!) I also want to teach you about your camera and how to use it efficiently! Editing!!! We all dread it, but I can help you smooth out the bumps and really hone in on your style and brand! Bottom line: I WANT YOU to succeed! After a year by my side, I want you to feel confident enough to book weddings on your own and photograph them with ease! 

I want to encourage you to reach out to my most successful mentee's, Paul Porras. He has mentored with me in the past and has stayed on as an associate photographer in addition to running his own biz! Lol-he couldn't get enough of my laugh I guess!! Paul is wildly talented and I am so excited to see how far he goes! His email is: paulporrasphotography@gmail.com. 

The final price above does not include tax. This payment can be broken down into 3, 6, or 12 monthly payments. As always, I am willing to work with you! Just let me know if you need to make special arrangements! Mentee must sign a 1 year contract with SCPhoto. 

Have more questions? Let's chat more! Feel free to email me here. We can also chat on the phone or text if you are a phone person! 505-331-5311. I want you to feel comfortable investing your money into yourself and your future! I promise you, with hard work, dedication, and a lot of fun, you will be able to run your own business! 


"Mentoring with Shayla has been an invaluable experience for me."

 I have always had an interest in photography but had not picked up a camera until 2017.

MENTORship PROGRAM

It started off with Shayla giving me tips and tricks and encouraging me to just go out and shoot. I was asked to photograph a wedding and it was my first “big” opportunity! I reached out to Shayla and she offered to have me come shadow her at some of her weddings. I was expecting to just stand back and watch but with Shayla’s encouragement she helped me see my full creative potential. Since then I’ve been given the opportunity to be an associate photographer for Shayla and I’m excited to photograph weddings for her! She has been such a light in my life!
