Remember how fantastic photography first felt? 📷
You loved exploring the world through a viewfinder, escaping life's problems as you discovered the beauty of everyday things. 🌹
Until you looked around and noticed your photos weren’t nearly as impressive as those you admire. 🥀
And now…
😔 All the once inspirational photos on Instagram only intimidate and make you feel bad by comparison.
😔 Your photos seem less creative, interesting and accomplished than your peers and you're self-conscious about sharing them (and when you do there's crickets. 🦗)
😔 Your favourite subjects feel stale and your photos don't match your vision only clogging up your hard drive.
So you commit to improving, buying new gear, watching YouTube tutorials and doing workshops but the more you learn, the more there is to learn...
Composition. Storytelling. Lighting. Posing. Creative techniques. Lightroom. Photoshop.
Not to mention finding a niche and style!
IT’S A LOT and how do you even tackle it when you don’t know where to begin?
Conflicted by the passion you once felt for photography and the fear you don’t have the talent you find yourself saying, "I don’t have time anyway".
Then it’s BYE BYE MOJO! 👋
This might sound like your story but it’s the story of thousands of photographers.
Why?
Because traditional ways of learning photography ruin your confidence (rather than building it) so it
STOPS BEING FUN. ❌
But what if...
🌟 Photography was so CREATIVE and INTERESTING you couldn’t care less what everyone else is doing because the journey is SO FUN that the destination doesn’t matter?
🌟 And by loving spending time with your camera, trying new things and practicing exactly what you need to learn, your photos naturally improve, turning out better than you envision.
🌟 With photos you're proud of, you’re eager NOT afraid, to polish them in editing knowing exactly how to make them REALLY stand out.
🌟 And sharing them is exciting because they’re so original that they always get LOADS of attention.
🌟 Then with your unique style and admired reputation it’s easy to make money from the photography you enjoy (without turning the hobby you love into a job you despise).
See the difference?
If you’re ready to kick insecurity to the curb and become the inspiring photographer you deserve to be let’s change your approach to photography and reignite your passion foreverrrr!

LIGHTING PROJECTS LIBRARY 💡
Projects that help you learn lighting
Lighting can seem difficult to learn but in reality it’s easier than you think. Start by watching an introductory training for working with studio lights then tackle projects like:
Lighting with household items, high and low key light, ways to shape light, freezing high speed subjects and light painting.
Don’t have expensive equipment? Neither do I! A simple Speedlite is enough for most projects.
Total: 16 projects
EDITING PROJECTS LIBRARY 🖥️
Projects to level up your editing skills
Our editing library features projects that can only be achieved with some form of editing. These are arranged to ease you into various tools and techniques in Photoshop so you can tackle them even if you’re new to the program. You’ll learn how to create clones, make subjects float or fly and plenty of other popular techniques like double exposures or focus stacking that you’ve been curious to try.
Total: 19 projects and growing
QUICK TRICKS LIBRARY ⏲️
Tricks that are quick and easy to complete but still pack a punch!
My goal is to make Photo Fun Addicts the most comprehensive library of creative photography projects in existence so there’s never a need to go anywhere else for ideas, but not every project fit into the lesson plan. That’s why I created the quick tricks library with simple bite-sized ideas for exceptional images. You’ll find these same projects on my YouTube channel but with extra bonuses like easy to reference step-by-step instructions and Photoshop actions.
With so much variety photography will always stay fresh and interesting so that it’s a fun, life-long hobby not one where your passion wanes.

Learning the technical side of photography is often dry and inaccessible (ugh, exposure triangle) so I explain your camera’s features in a way that’s easy to understand with simple exercises to practice.
"This is the only time in my life I have not had information overload (which makes my brain shut down) when learning about manual settings."
We cover exposure, focus and lenses, white balance and RAW, accessories, advanced focusing techniques, using a remote and tripod, plus ways to start creating if you’re not yet comfortable in manual.

BONUS 4 – EXCLUSIVE SUPPORT GROUP
Let’s face it, there’s a fine line between helpful suggestions and cruel criticisms and photography groups can be the wild west in terms of support.

That’s the Photo Fun Addicts support group.
It’s my mission to help you become the photographer and artist you dream of being and a big part of that is to have people in your corner cheering you on.

Meet your guide - Hi, I'm Hayley!
I’ve never been great at following rules and I found learning photography was full of restrictions that left little room for creativity.
Shoot it this way, not that way. If you do that you’ll look stupid. And definitely don’t do that because that’s cheating. Buy this gear if you want to improve. But try not to get attached because you’ll never make money.
It only made me feel bad. Where was the fun and play?
So I stopped doing what I was told and started pulling on the threads of creativity, becoming obsessed with trying every photography and editing trick I could find to push the boundaries of possibility.
And guess what? It turns that’s the key because you can’t stand out by fitting in.
As my portfolio grew I began to win awards, sell book covers, prints, and products, receive grant-funding, invitations to write for major publications and went viral. And it all came as a bit of a shock because I was just having fun with my camera creating photos that brought me so much joy.
So now I teach photography because I love to show photographers that all rules are made to be broken. That your photography gets to be as creative as you choose and anyone who rains on your parade is not worthy of your attention. In my communities you are free to play and experiment by doing whatever makes you happy because when you love what you do and pursue your passion fearlessly success comes naturally.
So let's create and have some fun!

Hayley is attentive, supportive, always friendly and quick to respond. If you are new to photography or experienced there are plenty of projects to help you along, encourage you to try something new and get your photo-mojo back!” - David G
"Before I joined, I had really lost my mojo for photography, something I love. I have been dragged out of my comfort zone and tried so many new, for me, techniques. I am now enthusiastic once again for my photography and feel I am producing better, more thoughtful photos. I have taken my first, tentative steps into the world of Photoshop and have so many ideas buzzing around in my head. Joining Creative Photo Folk has turned out to be a wonderful decision." - Janelle W
“I found Creative Photo Folk to be a fantastic place - The content is easy to understand, in a way that I haven't found other trainings to be. Well thought out lessons and information, plenty of images/videos and real life examples, and I was inspired by the creative projects too.
I love the personality and sense of humour coming through in your text and videos which makes the whole course very engaging.” - Holly A

There’s two ways to learn photography…
🥱 The dull way sitting in front of a computer, practicing with random subjects struggling to remember everything you’ve learnt and blending in with everyone else.
😍 OR the fun way engrossed in experiments with exciting creative techniques that make every subject fascinating and the hours fly by as you grow your skills and capture winner after winner.
So now you get to choose…
Do you want to be the photographer…
💛 Who loves photography so deeply that you excitedly count the hours to when you can escape into your favourite hobby knowing exactly what you intend to achieve and how to realise your vision.
💛 Who no longer feels unhappy and unfulfilled, deeply sensing you were meant for more because photography gives you the self-expression, confidence and pride you crave.
💛 Who challenges yourself to experiment with creative possibilities while constantly learning and improving to push your photography to new heights as you grow into an artist.
💛 Who has a head full of ideas and the technical skills to consistently nail high-quality images more imaginative and unique than ever before that have people begging to know how you created them.
💛 Who establishes a reputation that opens up paid opportunities for exhibitions, collaborations, awards and commissions while positively impacting others.
