Beginner Photography Course for Moms: Motherhood Inspired

Motherhood is full of fleeting, beautiful moments — the sleepy smiles, sticky little hands, and belly laughs you wish you could hold onto forever. Photography gives you the chance to preserve these memories, but figuring out how to use your camera in the small pockets of free time you have can feel overwhelming.

That’s why we created Motherhood Inspired — a beginner photography course designed especially for busy moms who want to learn at their own pace, in a safe and supportive community.

Who are Your Teachers?

Nanette Dorbeck and Cassandra Boryszak are portrait photographers with 25+ years of combined experience. We used to be in the same place you are…raising babies, trying to remember every moment and overwhelmed by all the buttons on our new (or still boxed) camera. We spent YEARS, doing all the things… trying and giving up, buying presets, asking Google what we did wrong, watching YouTube videos… you name it, we tried it.

We’ve taken what we’ve learned and put it into Motherhood Inspired because it’s exactly what we wish we had when we were new to photography.

It’s our mission to help you grow with easy, digestible content created for you, mama. We have incorporated ways to help you remember these days with your children while learning photography.
