hello, maker
Learn The Makers Method for taking scroll-stopping product photos that attract more customers and make more sales and money for your business without the headache and cost of becoming a professional photographer so that you can get back to doing what you love most, creating your product.
You are a creative maker who has perfected your craft and creates amazing products but you struggle to take product photos that truly reflect the quality and value of your products and this is LOSING YOU SALES.
Product Photography is a time suck that leaves you feeling frustrated, defeated, and doubting your ability to be a successful business owner.
You know how important quality product photos are to your success, but you've tried different setups, equipment, and techniques without any progress.
You’ve spent COUNTLESS HOURS searching for help online but 96% of the information out there was created for professional photographers not for non-photographer makers, like you.
All the complicated setups, technical jargon, and equipment recommendations make your head spin and your pockets empty.
You have no desire to do ALL THE THINGS to become a professional photographer. You just want to make your craft and sell it!
Tell me... How many bestsellers have you created that you are avoiding listing and losing money on because you dread the idea of having to take your own product photos?
You have put it off long enough so you set aside an entire day just to take photos.
When the day you have been dreading finally comes you wake up only to find that it's overcast outside and it has started to rain.
So you start walking from room to room trying to find a place that has enough light, your space is limited so it isn’t like you have a lot of choices.
After a few hours of moving your setup to each room in your house, you finally say, “forget it, this is good enough, I will just spend hours trying to fix the light in editing.”
You are frustrated and doubting yourself before you even begin shooting.
Annoyed, you just throw some random props into the setup and call it good.
You tell yourself, “if I just take a bunch of photos at different angles I am bound to get a few that look decent, right? Who am I kidding, I have no clue what I am doing.”
YOUR Light...
As if chasing the light isn't bad enough, you struggle...
This is the story I hear from makers all the time.
Imagine what it will feel like to go from inconsistent results to being able to confidently take your own product photos anytime of the day with a consistent hassle free light setup that reduces the time you spend shooting and editing so that you can get back to doing what you love.
How Would You Feel If you...
- only had to set aside a few hours to shoot your product, not an entire day
- were able to shoot anytime of the day and in any type of weather because your aren’t relying on natural light
- had enough light and your images never looked dull or gray
- could create a white background with ease
- could minimize and eliminate reflections on your product
- could edit an image in under a minute
- had a light setup you could conveniently throw your product into and get instant results when you do custom work or when customers have additional questions
- could get quality results from your smartphone
- could style and compose images that stop the scroll and convert to sales
Picture a Life Where You...
- feel confident about taking your own product photos
- have more time to create new products and grow your business
- create a product, shoot it and list it the same day and by the weekend you're hearing cha-ching and making sales
- are featured by Etsy and influencers
- steal all the sales from your competition and look good doing it
- raise your prices because your shop looks professional
- increase your engagement on social media
- create a loyal following that drools over your products and styling
- release a new product and have it sell out
- do all of this without becoming a professional product photographer
Introducing

"Before taking Kristina Nicole’s course on photography, I was completely ruining the image of my products in the editing process trying to get the white background, So I stopped trying all together! I switched to a background that was easy and didn’t create a lot of shadows and the lighting really didn’t have that much of an effect on, after all I was the only one who knew what color it was supposed to be anyway. All of this changed when I took Kristina Nicole’s course! She taught me how to use artificial light to get clean crisp white backgrounds every time! No more waiting for the perfect conditions for photographing outside, I can take pictures anytime of day or night using artificial light and get that perfect white background with very little editing I might add! Her course has streamlined the photography process for my business so much so that I love photography now! With the knowledge and skills her course gave me I now have the confidence to take my own product photography and slay it!"

"Kristina has helped me so much with her detailed and professional tips. She does it in a nice way, so you want to learn more and improve. I struggled with photography for years, and since watching her videos, things start to click and fall into place."

"Kristina’s light setup and course are amazing. I went through the process of buying a little lightbox online and I could never get the lighting right. The “white” of my photos were always either blue or yellow still. When I finally found Kristina, I figured I would give her artificial lighting set up to see if it would work and it has changed my WORLD. I went from editing photos ten to twenty minutes each (and still not actually getting a white background) to snapping photos, editing in the one minute it took me to walk to my computer and uploading it. This process has saved me over and over again. When customers have a question and need to see a different angle or if a reporter needs a photo super fast for publication, I can take a perfect photo at any time of day in any weather and send it over immediately."

"I have been having trouble taking photos of my products for years until... I met Kristina. Taking photos of glass has been a task I dreaded until now! I was introduced to Kristina and boom, I now understand light and how it can make or break your photos. I’ve used natural light in the past but the inconsistency was troubling. Learning how to make, set up, and use a lightbox has taken my photos from drab and ordinary to something I am proud of. The knowledge I have learned from Kristina has made taking photos fun! I can’t thank her enough for teaching me and supporting me! She is truly a caring and knowledgeable teacher!"
