"This workbook has changed my business triple fold. I was once making about $4000 per month - working my butt off. Now I'm making between $9000 and $14000 per month and only working 3 days a week." - Brenda Horan Photo

"When I decided that weddings were no longer my thing, the only thing I could think of to do in photography was KIDS! It sounded like a lot of fun, but I had no clue where to start. My normal target market was college girls who loved all things wedding, and I had no idea what to do now that my entire business was about to change. I saw a few facebook ads for Skye's workshop workbook and clicked on over, and within minutes of reading about it I knew this would be perfect thing for me to read. My eyes devoured the entire book in an hour and it changed my life. I know, that sounds unreal, but it really did, I felt like I could make it as a children photographer after reading all of her years worth of experience and tips that came along with it. The Workshop Workbook is pure genius, and you won't believe all of the extra fun things that come along with it! Buy it, you won't regret it." - Lauren Clark Photography
