MENTORSHIP SERVICES
Andrea Enger: Expert Business Mentor for Wedding Photographers
Hi, I’m Andrea! I'm a photographer and educator who helps creative business owners build sustainable, aligned, and profitable companies. My background in Human Resources and business operations informs my practical, systematic approach to mentorship—I focus on what works.
I specialize in guiding photographers through the unique challenges of building a client-focused business, including those who are navigating the industry in a second language. I offer mentorship in both English and Spanish.
My Core Mentorship Services:
1:1 Business Strategy & Coaching: Tailored guidance on pricing, workflow systems, and long-term planning.
Client Experience & Professional Communication: Leverage my HR expertise to set clear boundaries and create seamless client journeys.
Brand Clarity & Creative Direction: Define what sets you apart and learn how to communicate it consistently.
My goal is to help you move from feeling overwhelmed to having a clear, confident, and sustainable business model.
How I Can Support You
1:1 Mentorship
Personalized, real conversations about what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next. Whether you're stuck in pricing, drowning in workflow, or unsure how to find your voice — I’ll meet you right there.
Business Coaching
We’ll go through your systems, communication, pricing, and overall strategy — so the backend of your business finally supports the creative work you love doing.
Client Experience & Boundaries
My HR background helps me teach you how to communicate clearly, hold strong boundaries, and give your clients a seamless, grounded experience from start to finish.
Creative Direction & Brand Clarity
Together, we’ll uncover what sets you apart and how to express that — visually, emotionally, and in the way you show up for your people.
You Deserve a Business That Feels Like Home
This isn’t about trends.
It’s about finding clarity, confidence, and a way of working that actually feels good — in your body, your schedule, and your heart.
You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
If you’re ready to build something that reflects you, I’d love to walk with you.

MY FAVORITE BUSINESS TOOLS
Asana
I use the free version of Asana to work on business and personal projects. Asana allows me to seamlessly work with multiple contractors, as each one has his/her own section with tasks and sub-tasks. I love Asana! It truly helps keep me organized in all aspects of my life.
HoneyBook
This all-in-one client platform was created for independent business owners like myself. In addition to basic CRM features such as sales pipeline management, you can use HoneyBook as an end-to-end client management tool to handle all sorts of tasks, including invoices, proposals, contracts, scheduling and more.
Tailwind
This is a Pinterest/Facebook/Instagram scheduling tool. It allows me to effortlessly and efficiently plan and schedule multiple social media posts, up to a month in advance. This frees up so much of my time to focus on what’s really important– interfacing with my couples!
Fuel Your Photos
I love this internet marketing service. They are one of the reasons I am currently running a thriving independent business. I really value and respect their education services. With their diverse and engaging videos, blogs, and podcasts, they make learning both easy and fun.
Notion
Notion is my go-to workspace for organizing all the behind-the-scenes details of my business. From content calendars to workflow templates, it keeps everything in one place. I especially love how customizable it is - you can build out exactly what you need, whether it’s tracking projects, jotting down ideas, or creating systems that keep you on top of it all. Bonus points for having sharable workspaces to collaborate with others.
