The quote above by Arthur Koestler defines much of who we are as creative professionals.
My goal as a mentor is to help you identify what part of your own experience you can leverage to elevate your craft and your brand.
You become both the student and the teacher alike.
“Words can’t describe the amount of gratitude I feel toward Jose. We met at a photography fundraiser in 2016. His energy is very welcoming and he engaged with everyone part of the event. Since then he became not only a friend but also a mentor. He invited me to workshops, and several photo meetups and eventually welcomed me into his own workshop; RUMBO. Being a teacher he never had any problems sharing his knowledge with me, and always keen on improvement.
Throughout the past 6 years, I’ve learned so much through Jose by attending workshops with him, working as his second photographer, and being part of his photography community. These experiences have opened up many opportunities for me to work with other photographers and grow a network of like-minded people. Jose is just one of those people you’ll be happy you met, and he will always have your best interest at heart as well. Learning from him is an experience that has you coming back, a decision you’ll never regret.” – Kenneth Petiote

In 2008 I quit my desk job in pursuit of a greater life story. In 2012 I found love in teaching and empowering people. In 2018 – the year after I launched my photography business, I was traveling the world with my camera connecting and making art with creatives from thousands of miles away.
I would love to share a bit of what I’ve learned along the way.
