Recognizing that we’re often too close to our work and emotionally attached to our image selections, having James & Otto as a second pair of eyes has been invaluable.
Their objective perspective has helped me rethink my approach to curation, making me more analytical and better at identifying standout photos and ones with pattern-breaking elements.

Through James’ and Otto’s generous sharing of their industry-shifting experience,
I now have a firm command of who I am, where I’m going, and what I need to do to get there. I would never have gained this clarity if I had taken this journey alone.

A win I wanted Just a small message to say “thanks” to James & Otto.
A few months ago, I listened to a live session where they said something like, “People with money like to buy things and have options.”
Clement Renaut
I had an inquiry for a small wedding, just 2 hours, and the client told me, “We think it would be useless for you to join us during the lunch and the boat tour.”
My first idea was to offer them only the 2-hour package, but I remembered that live session and added options to the proposal… and they ended up booking me for the full day!

I feel so empowered!
I feel so empowered to drive my business exactly where I want to go. It’s the best investment I could have made for my business.”

I’d had the worst dry spell of leads and closing leads since I raised my prices. However, yesterday was a breakthrough.
Previously | was booking weddings at $4k and under. Yesterday I booked 2 weddings in a row. One $9k package that the couple will be paying in full and a smaller one just over $5k.
James & Otto already changed my mindset and the way I operate. Thank you, James. Thank you, Otto. You guys have shared your wisdom and experience with us that is practically impacting my business. My investment more than paid for itself already. Can’t wait to finish the course, book more higher-budget weddings, shoot less amount of weddings per year, and spend more time with my wife and our 6 boys.eful for this space!

I wanted to send a quick note to thank you for all the insider info, support and encouragement while I’m working on rebranding (and for helping me get 100% on board with my need to rebrand in the first place!)
Between the course material itself and the group community discussions — both the Zoom calls and the Facebook group — I’ve gone from vaguely feeling like I should probably tweak my brand messaging at some point… to creating a whole new brand that’s infinitely more strategic and intentional than the old one. (Plus, your extra-curricular reading recommendations are brilliant — I’m still only halfway through The Luxury Strategy because it’s huge, but I can feel it making me smarter page by page.)
I feel like my business has leveled up about a thousand times since I took what was, for me, a huge leap and joined the course earlier this year. That investment paid for itself five times over with one booking, and my average has already more than doubled. And now I’ve soft-launched the new brand and am getting so much new interest: I’m excited to see where all the new connections that are in the works right now will lead. Thank you both so much!

It’s been an exciting few days for us and our business. Especially since we just finished the course and are already seeing the results.
Otto and James really opened up about the luxury business and how to get started and make things happen.
Simply listen, take notes, take action, and make it the year of celebrations. This is the time to make a difference!
Thank you James and Otto for sharing your knowledge and experience and being willing to help!
