You know that one friend who always has the best recommendations?

FULL DISCLOSURE: Some of the links on this page are affiliate links. This means I may earn a small discount or commission to fund my coffee obsession if you use them. I love and trust all of these companies and products, and I think you will too!

The one who knows where to find the good tacos, the best binge-worthy Netflix shows, and which bars to avoid?

Yeah, that’s me. Except instead of taco spots, I’m handing you the ultimate photographer’s toolkit to help you book more clients, simplify your workflow, and make your website work for you (instead of against you).

Education

#neverstoplearning

The internet is overflowing with "educators," and it’s way too easy to drop cash on someone who promises the world but delivers… a glorified Pinterest board.

These courses and workshops? I’ve personally taken them and actually walked away with game-changing skills, not just a lighter wallet. If you’re ready to invest in education that actually delivers, start here.

fuel your photos is all you need

Just like there are “people with cameras” working for cheap in Facebook mom groups, there are people who claim to “do SEO” because it’s a buzzword that sells.

For real, no-fluff SEO advice that won’t get you blacklisted, check out Fuel Your Photos. They offer tons of free content, a paid course (worth every penny, IMO), and actual strategies that work. 

This is the best group out there for learning all about SEO and marketing!  I'm an admin here, so feel free to tag me (Crystal Lee Koehler) with any Showit-specific questions you have.
