If you’ve ever imagined the perfect pet photo in your head but felt frustrated when it didn’t turn out how you envisioned—this is for you.

The Learning Journey is designed for pet photographers of all levels who want to grow, experiment, and create art in a supportive, judgment-free space. It’s not just a collection of tutorials; it’s a structured, engaging experience that keeps you inspired, accountable, and constantly learning.

You don’t need to be a pro to join. Whether you’re just starting out, improving your skills, or exploring advanced techniques, the Learning Journey adapts to you. You’ll follow step-by-step Roadmaps, take part in hands-on challenges, and receive expert feedback to help you get from frustration to transformation.

This is for you if:
✅ You see stunning pet portraits online and wonder why yours don’t look like that.
✅ You have big creative ideas but struggle to bring them to life.
✅ You learn best with structure, guidance, and accountability—rather than jumping between random tutorials.
✅ You love photography but don’t want to deal with perfectionism, competition, or unrealistic expectations.
✅ You’re looking for a community of supportive, like-minded pet photographers who get it.

This is NOT for you if:
❌ You’re looking for a rigid, one-size-fits-all photography course.
❌ You expect instant results without putting in the effort to practice.
❌ You’re only interested in learning the business side of pet photography. (While we have business resources, our focus is on artistry, storytelling, and creativity.)
❌ You want to learn a completely different photography style, like studio or flash photography. While we DO have regular guest speakers to “fill the gaps”, the majority of the information leans heavily to natural, outdoor pet photography as per Emily’s style and expertise.
❌ You’re wanting to teach, make webinars/tutorials, or hold workshops (being a member while teaching is against our Ts&Cs!)

The Learning Journey is built for photographers who want to create art—not just technically correct photos. We focus on capturing emotion, storytelling, and magic, while also giving you the technical tools to bring your ideas to life.

With new challenges, live events, guest speakers, and a neurodiverse-friendly learning approach, it’s designed to keep you motivated and engaged, not just another course you buy and forget about.

If you’re ready to finally create the photos you dream of—with guidance, support, and zero judgment—then yes, the Learning Journey is absolutely for you. 😊

Yes of course! 
I’ve never wanted anyone to feel like they had to go out and buy a camera or fancy lens in order to participate.

I will talk about camera settings, and there are lessons that go over these in detail, as well as different types of lenses and things to consider, however it’s not a requirement.

In fact, I think if you’re taking photos with your phone, that learning the fundamentals is even more important.

Definitely! In fact, this online learning option is perfect for you, as it will take you from the most important, fundamental skills, through to more advanced techniques and business aspects!

Whether you’re still on complete Auto-mode on your camera, or you’ve never used editing software before, you will start at the start and move through your journey in manageable steps.

As well, you can ask any questions in the Facebook group or Inspawration Connect, no matter how silly (spoiler alert, there’s no silly questions), and the monthly critique sessions and Q&A sessions provides a chance to get feedback on your photos, and to ask questions live. (plus it’s super helpful to watch other people’s critiques!)

You are able to change your payment frequency at any time, as well as changing to the Lifetime option if you wanna stick around long-term!

You can also easily change between Inspawration Together – Community & Critiques, to the full Learning Journey membership.

While all of my tutorials are based in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, it is possible to use many of the techniques in other programs.

I have recently created lessons exploring Affinity and Pixelmator Pro, to see how the programs vary, which features, keyboard shortcuts and techniques match up, and which don’t. As other students using other programs join, I will create more of these, to have a “library” of alternative programs and how to get the most out of them.

One of the reasons I’ve structured the LJ the way I have, is from feedback from my other students, who felt time poor, and like they were falling behind on their lessons.

In the Learning Journey, you will have a collection of lessons to view each month. If you don’t get to them, no worries! You can return to them whenever you want. Each month, a new topic with a collection of lessons will open up for you to work through. You have plenty of time for the lessons and bonus content, but it should be enough to keep you busy!

If you decide to go your own way and leave the membership, your access will cease at the end of that payment period (and we’ll all be sad to see you go).

No worries! They’re all recorded and uploaded to the member’s area usually within 48-72 hours..

Of course!

In fact we don’t even use our Facebook group any more, as we have our very own Inspawration Connect, which has a chat function, no algorithm, you can set up notifications to be emailed to you, and it even has its own App!

Yes!

If you’re paying monthly, your membership will finish up at the end of that billing cycling. If you paid yearly, you can continue to use your membership until the end of the billing cycle.

Unfortunately I cannot do partial refunds.

Make sure that you cancel at least 48 hours before your next payment is due so it doesn’t get processed by your bank.

Once your billing period has ended, you will lose access to the membership and all the content. 

As of January 1st. 2025, the doors to the Learning Journey will be closed again to new members, for about 6 months. This ensures we stay a tight-knit, excited and inspired Community, and that our attention as coaches is focused on providing YOU the best learning opportunities – NOT on endlessly marketing.

Then I’ll be very sad to hear that, but of course if you’re looking for something we’re not providing (for example, studio photography lessons!) then we completely understand!

To that end, if you aren’t satisfied with your membership, please get in contact and we will try and find a solution (and hopefully get some feedback to find out what we can improve upon!).

All lessons and videos are currently only available in English, except for the German version of Sabrina’s Flower Magic tutorial
