1:1 SHOOTS (let’s build that portfolio!)

1:1 GUIDED SHOOT WITH JAI
Ready for a hands-on learning experience? Join me for a one-of-a-kind mentoring photoshoot in my St. Louis studio! I’ll craft a fully customized session for you featuring a styled model and four unique wardrobe & lighting looks. I'll spill all my studio secrets, answer your questions, and, post-shoot, we'll hop on a 30-minute Zoom call—whether for image culling help, business advice, or just a friendly chat. The photos are all yours, and the knowledge? That's a game-changer for your craft. Let's make magic together! (If you’d like to share the day & cost with a 2nd photographer for a 2:1 session, the cost is $5900).
$4900 

Photographer Testimonials :
“Thank you so much! I’m so thankful for our [mentoring] shoot! I’m still on a high from everything I learned! I feel like I’m passionate about something new and it has me all giddy to make beautiful portraits! I want to go back and practice more lighting in my studio immediately! I really appreciate you being such an open book!”
- Carmen Rose, Fort Worth

”I was lucky enough to have a one-on-one custom mentoring session with the one and only Jai Mayhew! She and her team made it so easy for me [to create beautiful images]. I’m so grateful for the experience and knowledge she shared with me for creating luxury editorial style portraits, and I’m very excited to put everything in practice.”
- Soleil Brix, Houston

“Learned from the master Jai Mayhew.  If you’re on the fence about learning from her or having your portraits done by her, get off and go do it! Worth every penny! Dallas is lucky to have her.”
- Katie Rosebraugh, Dallas

Photographer Testimonials:

“My mentoring session was very helpful! Already implementing changes as we speak. I love that Jai was honest with me; the feedback made sense and I can take actionable steps right away.”
- Nicole Gates, Texas

“I opened my physical studio in January 2020. Along with being completely overwhelmed, I really didn’t have any idea how to make the transition to being a full-time photographer with a full time lease. I knew I had the potential, but lacked the fine-tuned skills to get there. I had seen some of Jai’s work and knew that she was the coach for me. Her ridiculous talent aside, she’s an incredibly warm and thoughtful human being and takes the time to really listen to who you are and what your work is about. She can see the long-term goal around your voice and vision as an artist and photographer and help you get there. She gave me the structure, tools and excellent feedback on how to be successful, and I’m so grateful to continue working with her as I watch my business grow and expand beyond what I thought was even possible. I say this a lot, but thank you Jai for the gift that you bring to those of us wanting to grow and realize our dreams.”
- Steph Ormin, California
