Workshops that spark momentum — not just more overwhelm.
Real conversations, tangible tools, and in-person energy with likeminded creatives.
No fluff. No ego. Just the good stuff.
Real talk. Real results.
Whether it’s a half-day reset or a full-day deep dive, our workshops are designed to give you clarity, confidence, and real tools you can use straight away.
They’re honest, energising, and packed with the kind of conversations that usually happen off the mic - the stuff that actually moves your business forward.
"...I did the workshop and it just totally changed my perspective on what my business could be...
At the time my packages were like $200 to $400. I wasn't making a living, it was just an expensive hobby. I did the workshop and it just totally changed my perspective on what my business could be. I got into this because I liked to take pretty photos, but no one ever taught me how to run a business and how to make money and feed my family and pay my bills. I went to this workshop and it just changed everything."

"...I have finally logged into your website and I am obsessed! I had no idea how in depth your content was...
Hi Girls! I have finally logged into your website and I am obsessed!! I had no idea how in depth your content was. I’ve also just discovered your Facebook page which is amazing as well! Was just listening to your podcast on mind blocks and have discovered some things I need to work on, thanks ladies!"

"...100% recommend IDHTBH for anyone who is running a photography business of any genre...
...I was lucky enough to be at the last workshop and I learnt a lot about the business side of things. I learnt that there is actually a method to price your services and how to allocate your finances. I have been practising this ever since and it has helped me a lot in the sense that I know exactly where I stand with my personal and business finances, which in turn helps to make pricing decisions for future jobs. Also Haley has personally been incredibly helpful to answer any questions I have in the process of setting up our studio."

"...It was honestly just exactly what I needed...
I recently had a really rough night with my son, one of I'm sure many to come as a parent. And he needed my hand to go to sleep. I had to sit down on the ground next to his bed, holding his hand, for over 40 minutes. And the whole time I was doing that, I was just thinking about my to-do list and it was stressing me out and I had a moment. I was so worked up and stressed about having to spend 40 minutes with my son, and realistically I should have 40 minutes to spend with my kids when they need me, but my business was not set up to allow that. I could only have a successful business if I did volume and that's not the reality that I wanted. When I first got into photography I got into it because I wanted to have a job that I love that could still allow flexibility for my family. This workshop was just perfect. It gives you the frame work and the confidence to be able make some of the tweaks to your business to make it more sustainable."

"I could never have imagined how helpful haley could have been in both my photography & wedding venue businesses!...
Haley is generous in sharing her experience and knowledge (in so many systems/processes) and is extremely efficient which makes the whole mentoring experience so exciting & productive. The follow up emails with supplementary loom videos and recording of zoom meetings provided has ensured follow through of improvement projects. I look forward to continuous improvements to my businesses with more mentoring in the future!"

"...because of you, i have found the courage to back myself...
After doing your amazing workshop I have found the courage to back myself. I have up-sold from individual digital sales to selling prints, frames and even an album. I've had a 4 figure quote accepted and product samples prints and big plans in place.
I cannot thank you ladies enough. The workshop really has changed things for me."

"...A total game changer...
Thanks to IDHTBTH, I definitely feel like I am on the right track to grow my business, to be forward thinking, and growth minded. The knowledge and experience from Ruth and Haley was so beneficial and I no longer feel like I am fumbling in the dark. A photography business is about so much more than just taking pretty pictures. You could take the most beautiful portraits in the world but if you were undercharging, burning yourself out, not goal setting or planning - it is only ever going to be a really expensive hobby! This workshop will give you the knowledge to make your business profitable, to have family time, to sustain your lifestyle, to give yourself a raise, to have holidays, to meet your goals and create the life you want."

"...There was no better environment to learn in and grow in...
It's my dream to be able to build a business to support my family, doing something that I am whole heartedly passionate about...which can be tricky when you’re a self-doubter or aren't necessarily in the position to make that happen straight away. With the amazing guidance from Ruth and the gentle nudge at the end from Haley I finally took the plunge and took the first step. I spent the weekend with an awesome bunch of ladies either in the same position as I am, or wanting to take their established businesses to the next level. I love learning and understanding new things and there was no better environment to do this in. I am excited to have begun the journey to take my creativity and passion to capture those amazing memories and emotions to the next level, and I am looking forward to changing that mindset, putting new things into place and doing some mentoring to guide me along the way. I cannot thank you the IDHTBTH team enough for their time, energy, wealth of knowledge and belief in me."
