Let's chat about it

Hey,
documentary photographer! 

If there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s that FINDING CLIENTS WHO UNDERSTAND DOCUMENTARY WEDDING AND FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY IS.... TOUGH. 

TO BE TOTALLY HONEST, I STRUGGLED FOR A LONG TIME TO FIND CLIENTS WHO UNDERSTOOD DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY. AND I STRUGGLED EVEN HARDER TO GET THEM TO PAY ME WHAT I NEEDED TO SURVIVE.

despite winning a bunch of awards, I KNEW I LACKED a clear, consistent brand AND I DIDN'T have the confidence to stand behind MY prices.

But it ain't like that anymore!

i now make multiple 6 figures as a docwed/docfam photographer. AND I ONLY WORK WITH PEOPLE WHO WANT WHAT I DO. 
I THINK THIS IS POSSIBLE FOR EVERYONE, So I've written the road map to get you from feeling lost, stuck and  discouraged, to feeling confident, clear and inspired.

imagine moving through your business without Ever feeling…

✔ "Not good enough" as a documentary photographer
✔  Balls of anxiety in your stomach when a client challenges your prices
✔ Defeated when clients don't hire you
✔ Lost in the crowded wedding and family photography markets
✔ Frustrated by clients who expect you to pose and direct and perfect every little thing

These are the feelings I'm going to help you ditch inside Storyteller's School.  We're going to break up with the pressure to be perfect, step into a fuller expression of your creativity through documentary photography, and make more money doing it. 

Sound too good to be true?

Storyteller's School is your ticket to change your business forever.

It’s intentionally different from anything you’ve seen before because I teach you meaningful composition and storytelling techniques, while I walk you through marketing and branding, pricing for profit, and (re) building a kickass website and portfolio that is DEEPLY aligned with what makes you, you. 

I finally FIGUREd OUT WHAT THE HELL i was DOING wrong!!

HERE'S WHY YOU NEED BOBBI:

I was desperate to figure out what the hell I was doing so I could stop flailing in every direction, just seeing what would stick. I felt yucky and out of alignment with some of the work I was doing but didn't know why. I was tired of trying to mold myself to each client to ensure they had a good experience.

If you want to discover the innate value you bring to your clients just by being you, work with Bobbi. If you want to reduce the total effort you expend while offering an even better client experience, work with Bobbi. If you want to make more money and feel awesome about it, work with Bobbi. If you want to fall in love with what you do again, work with Bobbi.

Hi, I’m BOBBI B!
I’ve been a highly successful DOCUMENTARY WEDDING & FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER for OVER A DECADE.

Despite winning dozens of international awards for my work, I STRUGGLED THROUGH PIECE-MEAL COURSES AND DIY-ING MY BUSINESS. I barely made enough to cover my expenses, I couldn't attract people I really wanted to work with, and I felt completely lost.

But when I finally started figuring out WHY THE HECK AM I DOING THIS, and infusing THAT into all of my business decisions, my success SKYROCKETED. I now earn multiple six figures with ease every year--in a small town in rural British Columbia. I KNOW. It sounds impossible. I used to think that, too. 

I'm not some magically talented artist. I'm not an influencer with thousands of fans. I'm a very slow learner, who's gone through hundreds of existential crises to get to where I am--which is why I KNOW I can help you.

This program pulls together all the lessons I learned on this journey, DISTILLED DOWN TO 16 WEEKS OF INTENSIVE and SUPPORTED WORK, guided by me. 

Storyteller's School is uniquely designed to boost your confidence in how you shoot and how you show up in your business. Guidance, accountability, and support to make you the artist and entrepreneur you truly are.

BUT DON'T LISTEN TO ME... HERE'S WHAT victoria
family photographer RACHEL knoop SAID:

Bobbi Barbarich is a gem of a human being. She creates an environment for learning that is fun, engaging, and adaptable. I appreciated Bobbi's willingness to explore things at my pace, while still encouraging me to challenge myself and break down barriers. With each discovery, completed task, and new piece of the puzzle; Bobbi was so invested in my learning and growth. She was my personal cheerleader. Working with Bobbi will boost your confidence, create new paths for growth and transformation, and help you discover your inner rockstar.
