I’ve always loved learning, but somewhere along the way, I discovered how much I love teaching, too. Sharing what I’ve learned over the years and helping other photographers grow is something I genuinely enjoy.
My mentoring sessions are relaxed and completely tailored to you, kind of like having coffee with a girlfriend who happens to have 18+ years of photography experience. Whether you want to better understand your camera, improve your photography, grow your business, or learn more about marketing, we’ll focus on what you want to learn.
So grab your camera, your computer, and your questions, and let’s get started!
Over the years, I’ve invested a lot of time into learning and growing, through workshops, online courses, and plenty of figuring things out on my own along the way.
These mentorships are one-on-one and in person, and I’m truly an open book. Come with a list of questions, or let me take the lead based on where you are and what you want to learn.
And the support doesn’t end when our session does. If a question comes up later or you just need a little advice, reach out! I know firsthand that this industry can feel overwhelming at times, and I’m always happy to help.
"Before coming to Molly, I knew I wanted to do photography but was reluctant to seek customers because I wasn't sure how the pictures would turn out. With Molly's help, I now feel confident offering my services in my community since she taught me ways to prepare and execute a shoot, as well as some of the essentials of editing. Her tips were priceless, and she provides the kind of support that every artist seeking a mentor needs to thrive."

"My mentoring session with Molly Bruce was an investment in myself that has given me confidence to explore my passion. Molly is so generous sharing her skills, experience, art and business sense. She creates a space of freedom, free from insecurities. She is calming, yet charismatic and her positivity makes for a relaxing and fun experience. This is an experience I will forever cherish.
Expect organized lesson plans, on site shooting, lighting and posing, along with business guidance. Molly is genuine and freely gives of herself to clients. Molly has a gift of capturing the essence of pure love and joy in each of her client sessions."
