I'm a Big Fan of More Money in the Hands of Women
Which is the reason I share the Remote Photography Method I used to build my own photography business.
Learn how to run professional photo sessions anywhere in the world without geographic restrictions.
Inside this course, Lisa Haukom teaches photographers how to direct shoots remotely through their clients’ phones, opening up an entirely new way to work.
"I had never even considered directing photo shoots remotely before this course. Lisa breaks it down in such a clear, practical way that it suddenly feels completely doable. The scripts and onboarding workflow alone are worth the price."
— Suze, Portrait Photographer
I built this method after moving to a small town on the Oregon Coast. Instead of shrinking my photography business to the size of my location, I redesigned the process so I could work with clients anywhere.
How the Remote Method Works
Instead of traveling to your client, you direct the entire shoot remotely.
Your client uses their phone.
You guide the session, adjust the framing, capture the photos, and deliver the final images , just like a traditional shoot.
The difference is simply, you can work with clients anywhere.
Family sessions
Brand photography
Portrait sessions
Interior shoots
All without studios, travel days, or geographic limits.
"What I love about this method is how flexible it is. I can now offer sessions to clients outside my city without adding travel days to my schedule. It completely changed how I think about my photography business."
— Mark, Brand Photographer
Why This Works
When photographers hear “remote photography,” they often assume it must feel less professional than an in-person session.
In reality, the opposite is often true.
Clients are already comfortable in their own homes. They have access to their own environments. And with clear direction, they can create images that feel natural, relaxed, and deeply personal.
Over the past several years, I’ve used this exact approach to photograph clients around the world.
Many of those images have gone on to appear in magazines.
What makes the difference isn’t the distance.
It’s the structure behind the shoot.
