common questions & hesitations
QUESTION 01
QUESTION 03
QUESTION 02
I’ll be straightforward with you: Yes, this course is an investment. But it’s an investment you’ll see returned both in quantifiable and unquantifiable ways. How can we possibly measure the value of living our dreams? But one thing is certain: The experiences you’ll gain while fulfilling your deepest yearnings and traveling the world will be with you for LIFE. By making this investment today, you’ll revel in the benefits for the rest of your life!
This course is for designed for any wedding professional seeking to branch out of their local market and reach the destination market. It’s best-suited for photographers, videographers, planners, florists, and other vendors who need to be present on a wedding day. For vendors specializing in products such as stationery and accessories ( who don't need to be physically present on a wedding day), I offer 1-on-1 mentoring to provide custom destination wedding roadmaps specific to your business goals. Learn more here.
Absolutely! Although I give examples from my own experience in the European market, the course material can be applied to ANY destination where you’d like to work that is beyond where you currently live. For example, the course can also be used to established yourself in a market you’re moving to—before you even officially move. From Paris to Bali to Cancun to a city two hours from you, this course enables you to book weddings in the places of your dreams.
QUESTION 04
QUESTION 05
“Other photographers have promised destination wedding education, but haven’t delivered. How is this course different?”
“I’ve attended a destination workshop, but haven’t booked a destination wedding yet. Will this course get me different results?”
Honestly: Yes. While destination workshops are great for meeting others and getting beautiful content, attendees often leave without the experience and ACTIONABLE steps they need to become destination wedding vendors. Plus, photographers and videographers leave with the exact same content as everyone else—everyone who’s targeting the same destination you are. The Destination Wedding Academy offers the exact roadmap you need to actually BECOME a destination vendor—and not just have the photos. Plus, the investment is a fourth of what popular destination workshops cost.
Here’s the thing: I don’t believe in gatekeeping secrets. I believe in empower others to achieve their dreams. It’s that simple. You, me, and every person on earth has unique beauty to offer. Rather than do it on my own, I’d so much rather equip others to serve well, thrive in their passions, and create beauty that impacts others. Humanity is stronger with artists in it. Humanity is more beautiful with artists in it. So my mission with this course is to share the secrets, the nitty-gritty details, the WHOLE journey so that YOU can go out and make the world a more beautiful, loving place through art.

It was 2019. After moving to my husband’s native Germany two years prior, I’d endured a season of feeling lost and alone. I found myself in a small Bavarian village—far from home, loved ones, and the fiery creative passion I once had.
As difficult as that time was for me, I emerged with a deep sense of love for myself. I had nurtured a beautiful sense of "home" within myself. And from that tender place, I began to thrive.
It’s now my mission to inspire others to feel at home in themselves.
The Destination Wedding Academy exists as an extension of this devotion. I firmly believe that as you pursue your wildest dreams, you’re honoring your true self. In spite of fear, distractions, and doubts, when you realize your dreams, you’re fulfilling a radical purpose. And in doing so, you’re spreading love, beauty, and grace to countless others.
I invite you to join me on this grand adventure and discover its beauty for yourself. Will you say yes to your wildest dreams?
