Conscious Creator is for intentional photographic
artists specializing in family portraiture to create with ease, conviction, and confidence through a combination of low stakes exploration & intimate support.
The program is based on my tried & true 12 core principles of conscious creation that have supported my creative practice for over 15 years.
Every week for 12 weeks we explore a principle through shooting exploration, prompted templates, video trainings, & live group calls.
Along the way you will develop your own distinctions and by the end of the program will distill your learnings into your own unconditional access to your sacred vision.
Your ability to tap into your unique Sacred Vision is a byproduct of feeling deeply congruent within yourself & your practice.
If this feels like something for you, I wrote you a letter below:
(The answer to this whole program is actually in here
and you don’t need to purchase anything.)
Dear Tender Souled Intentional Photographic Artist,
This is for you.
To be a photographer is to bare your soul in a million different ways.
The intimacy of sharing how you see.
You show someone what you value.
What you believe is important.
What you feel.
And to do it FOR another person?
This adds a level of complexity that can be crippling to our tender hearts.
“If I become really still, I know what I believe to be the most important things in my art- I feel it. But will they agree? Will they like it? Is it enough? What will they think about how I am not telling him how to pose? How far should I compromise on an ask they have and what I want to focus on in my craft?”
Conscious Creator is a program designed for intentional photographic artists that are seeking to make work for others while not compromising their souls. For those who want to feel so anchored in their intentions that they can access their flow state in any session.
After more than 15 years of photographing people in many different forms, I have come to know in my bones that the magic of photographing someone is in the experience itself. The photographs are a bonus.
How to improve your photographs?
How to photograph more emotionally?
How to help someone relax?
Embodiment.
You MUST got first.
But how?
You don’t need to be wildly confident.
You don’t need to have all of your shit together.
You don’t need to have a clearly defined all knowing artist statement/purpose.
You don’t even need to know how to work every part of your camera.
You need to trust yourself, know your intent, and be deeply present.
^^^^^^
That is pretty much the foundation of the whole program right there.
Do whatever you need to access that inner truth, knowing, and trust for the work that you’re creating and if that's all you needed to hear, I cannot wait to see what unfolds for you.
If you are looking for some support in accessing this, read on-
YOU DON’T HAVE TO KNOW WHY YOU’RE DOING WHAT YOU’RE DOING. (that’s a bonus)
Most artists don’t know.
I barely know sometimes.
Sometimes you are done with a project before you realize it,
sometimes half way through it dawns on you.
But how can we commence any work without being able to explain ourselves to ourselves let alone a client?
The purity of your intent.
It pours out of you.
You cannot hide it even if you try.
Your ability to strengthen your connection to that feeling, that intangible KNOWING- is the thing that unlocks anything you could ever want.
You could be scared going into a shoot.
You could feel pressure & insecurity.
But when you show up and trust your purity of intent and your absolute knowing of how to access that feeling-
you are free.
free to be present with whoever you are with.
And through presence, powerful pictures are made.
Every photographer grows into different taste & realms of their work.
But if you look back, you can find your own kernels of truth in it all.
The style doesn’t really matter.
The equipment doesn’t really matter.
The clothing doesn’t fucking matter. (but please for the love of the universe- NO LOGOS lol)
What matters is your ability to help someone feel safe in your presence and that can only happen THROUGH your presence. Your pure intentional presence.
Conscious Creator is the culmination of my lived, learned, and felt philosophies in my photographic practice creating work for others (mostly families, and also individuals, couples, newborn work, etc.) distilled into my core Principles of Conscious Creation.
My goal is not to focus on taking aesthetically “better” pictures. My goal is to guide you through redefining your photographic practice for yourself. This eliminates the relevance of comparison/ imposter syndrome aka noise, and INEVITABLY, helps you to take “better” pictures.
We do this through congruence.
Taking a principle we believe in and embodying it.
Strengthening that innate resonance we all have when we feel a sense of home in our body when we are witnessing a moment of truth.
This course will help you connect to your bigger picture and in turn, inevitably cause your clients to be able to do the same for themselves through your vision.
There will be video trainings, prompted templates, & shooting assignments that will guide you in connecting to your sacred vision.
I truly believe that the photographic medium has the power to nourish us, comfort us, & heal us.
We are in the business of helping people see.
Photographs help us remember our lives
but why do we want to remember?
Focusing on what a moment looked like is not the point.
We must not merely look for what we think we should remember.
Our photographs show us what we see.
Now.
...
In real time- we can see our world and decide
if this is how we want to experience this life.
Photography can show us how to see with or without the camera.
Let your photographs remind you what life has felt like.
And in that regard,
taking better pictures requires you to live a better life.
Let us transcend the “standard” boring conversations.
Let us transcend the expectations.
Let us transcend the medium itself.
We are having a far bigger conversation here.
LET US REMEMBER.
Let us transcend our constraints.
Let us trust ourselves.
Let us see.
Hi, I'm Bianca.
“Let's face it: I'm scared, scared and frozen. First, I guess I'm afraid for myself... the old primitive urge for survival. It's getting so I live every moment with terrible intensity. It all flowed over me with a screaming ache of pain... remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I've taken for granted. When you feel that this may be good-bye, the last time, it hits you harder.”
