Storyteller Accelerator
The 9-Month Group Coaching Program for CP101 Alumni.
Scale your momentum with continuous expert coaching and advanced-level training to hit your biggest, brightest goals as a conservation visual storyteller.
You have solid foundations for how to find, photograph and pitch powerful stories but…
Life keeps throwing curve balls and your always-busy schedule means you've lost momentum and creative motivation
You have story and project ideas you care about, but you can't seem to dig in to make creative progress. It feels like you're at a stand still.
You're chasing down more complex stories and projects now, and new questions you haven't had to tackle before are popping up at every turn. You just wish you had someone to guide you through new terrain so you can stop wondering “Am I doing this right?”
You still feel that spark you felt when you first picked up your camera and discovered storytelling… but it's faded. You want to find that fire again and renew the beautiful excitement about storytelling
If you want to fire up your momentum, discover fresh ideas to pursue, and build your photography skills to new heights through expert coaching, all while enjoying the community and support of fellow purpose-driven photographers, then I'd like to invite you inside

What having continuous coaching and advanced-level training in conservation photography gives you:
>> Clarity and focus so that you hit your goals faster
Second-guessing, procrastinating, waffling, working on too many parts of a project all at once… there are many ways that you get in your own way, slowing down your own progress even when you feel like you're putting in maximum effort.
An experienced coach pinpoints how and where you're putting hurdles in your own path, guides you in how to remove them, and trains you on how to stop the habits that slow you down.
Think of it like traveling in the traffic-free carpool lane with a navigator in the passenger seat and friends rocking out to your favorite songs in the backseat.
You get to where you want to go a whole lot faster, and you have fun along the way.
>> Insights and feedback you'll never find working solo
When you don't know what you don't know, it's really tough to find answers. But a coach has been in your shoes before. They already have the experience that you're currently working to build.
So, you avoid mistakes, leap-frog steps, and streamline your path to success.
The advice, information, and structured feedback a coach provides is priceless… and is something you just can't get working on your own.
>> Personalized guidance on your specific questions and challenges
The world is filled to the brim with helpful how-to articles, training videos, podcast episodes, and more. But sometimes, this generalized information just won't cut it.
Your project is unique, and you have unique questions. You need someone to talk with directly, to spend time discussing your specific project, problems, and portfolio.
Coaching is that personalized, trustworthy input.
It's the difference between reading a self-help book, and sitting down with your closest friends over coffee… it's the later that will actually help you solve a problem.
Time to get moving!
If you've been stuck in educrastination mode, or dreaming all the dreams without doing and of the to-dos, then Storyteller Accelerator kicks you into gear.
Your coach and fellow members help hold you accountable – in the most kind and encouraging way – so that you can noticeably improve your storytelling approach, technical skills and visual style.
What You Get:
Personal Feedback and Coaching
This private group of CP101 alumni is where you build momentum and accountability for your progress.
(Value: $2,250)
Feeling stuck? Overwhelmed? Need some specific advice? Get the insights and support you need each week inside the group.
Get in-depth feedback and support directly from me, as well as from other program members.
Four days a week, I’m in the group providing feedback to members.
✨ Every freshly-made photo you want editor eyes on…
✨ Every portfolio you want help curating….
✨ Every story you are excited about, but need help nailing down….
✨ Every pitch email you want help shaping…
I’m here for you.
And most of the time, I provide video replies so that we can go truly in-depth in your work.
None of those brief “yeah that looks fine” comments meant to shine you on.
Nope.
My driving force is to see you find success, so I roll up my sleeves and work alongside you…
showing you what you’re doing RIGHT when that can so often be hard to recognize…
and guiding you where you need to improve so that you know exactly HOW to get the results you want.
Live Group Coaching Calls
Hop on live for an in-depth coaching experience, including deep dives into everything from creativity to revenue.
(Value: $1,350)
There's nothing like live conversation with your coach and peers to break through new ideas.
The monthly call is not simply a Q&A session. These high-level coaching calls are structured to help you make significant progress both in implementing the CP101 course materials to successfully complete a photo story that you’ll pitch, as well as advancing your overall skills and confidence in photography and storytelling.
Each month I post the agenda to our coaching call so you know just what to expect.
✨ Dive into critiques of student submissions for the monthly challenges
✨ Answer all the questions folks bring to the table (especially those “it depends” ones!)
✨ Explore exercises, conversations and side topics like business, finances, field strategy and those other things that just aren’t talked about often enough in the wider world.
Can’t make the call? Want to review past calls? All the recordings are available for you 24/7, with timestamps so you can easily jump to just the parts that matter to you most.
You have access to the entire archive of calls (even those held before you become a member!)
Advanced Trainings & Tools
Keep going and growing with advanced trainings, tools and templates that you'll need as you become a more skilled visual storyteller.
(Value: $997)
Renewing your membership in Storyteller Accelerator is you raising your hand and saying, “I'm ready for MORE!”
So that's what you get!
More of the tools and trainings you need as you scale up your skills.
These advanced trainings walk you through next-level skills, from building pitch decks to applying for grants, from gaining reach for your work on social media to growing revenue streams as a freelancer.
Each training is designed to give you a deeper dive into storytelling concepts and guide you through new skills you'll need for bigger, bolder projects.
As long as you're a member of Storyteller Accelerator, you have access to the entire library of Advanced Trainings PLUS any new training, template and tool we roll out.
Advanced trainings are unlocked when you renew your membership in Storyteller Accelerator after the initial membership you receive as a bonus when you enrolled in CP101.
Total Program Value: $4,500
Your Investment: $779
It’s important that you know the enormous value you’ll get in this program. These numbers are not inflated — they’re an honest estimate of each component if purchased separately… and some of these benefits simply aren't available outside of Storyteller Accelerator.
For instance, a single portfolio review with Jaymi is $180 alone. But you can get a portfolio of images reviewed by Jaymi any time you'd like as a member of Storyteller Accelerator, all included with your program price.
This program is designed so you get the best elements of coaching and community for a highly affordable investment.

Storyteller Accelerator is active every day with members posting work, commenting with ideas, and supporting each other through thick and thin.
This incredible space is just for Conservation Photography 101 alumni, so we're all working on the same goals, speaking the same language, and inspiring each other in the same directions. And it is happenin’ in there!
More than ever before, we need skilled people telling the stories of species, habitats, researchers, nonprofits, conservation groups and so many others.
There is critical work to be done.
For you to answer that call as a visual storyteller, you need a strong community of peers to help you troubleshoot and navigate the ever-changing terrain.
And you need an expert coach to consistently guide you in building your skills as a visual storyteller.
Storyteller Accelerator has all of this ready and waiting for you.
Now is not the time to let anxiety rule your decision-making or shut down your creative productivity.
Instead, it’s time to double down on determination.
Because the fact is, you are essential. Your artistic and storytelling skills are more needed than ever as people turn to visual storytellers to understand what is going on around the world.
Whether focusing on local issues or international work, photographers and filmmakers have countless stories to document, conservation efforts to assist, and new goals to set as the world rethinks our relationship with nature.
Rather than getting excited about a story or project only to have the joy fizzle out when you get to the hard parts, you’ll know how to structure your ideas, and your actions, to make genuine headway.
And you'll do this with the comfort that comes with professional guidance at each step of the way.
You'll get past the hurdles of “I'm Stuck” and “Where Do I Go From Here” and “What Do I Want This To Look Like” with the confidence that only comes from individualized feedback and consistent check-ins.
No more wandering through a project or story on your own, letting the creative moments be weighed down by uncertainties and overwhelm.
You’ll become a better storyteller, an even more brilliant creative thinker, a savvy strategist on your photography projects, and you'll gain a network of peers you can turn to during future endeavors.
