Workshops
Learn from Mike++
For over a decade, Mike Morby has poured his heart into photographing weddings, capturing the in-between moments, the quiet beauty, and the honest emotion that define a couple’s story. With more than 500 weddings personally photographed, and a team that’s collectively captured thousands of weddings, Mike has learned to anticipate moments before they happen, a skill born from equal parts experience, intuition, and a deep respect for human connection.
What started as a dream for Mike and his wife Kari, has grown into a thriving studio that’s photographed around 100 weddings a year for the past decade, even weathering one of the most challenging seasons imaginable, the pandemic of 2020, emerging stronger and more intentional than ever.
Mike is known for his dramatic use of light, creative compositions, and ability to make couples feel completely at ease in front of the camera. But what truly sets him apart is his relentless pursuit of growth, both for himself and for those around him. His leadership is grounded in purpose; he inspires his team to chase excellence, think deeply, and continually expand what they believe is possible.
Outside of weddings, Mike’s happiest moments are the simplest ones, a quiet morning routine, a steaming cup of coffee, playing guitar, and his kids running through the yard. That same sense of grounded joy is what he brings into everything he teaches.

WORKSHOP INFORMATION
BRAND MESSAGE
What makes your company different? Does that differentiation add value to the client? Can you consistently deliver on what you promise? These three questions form the foundation of your brand message. A clear, intentional brand message gives you something to say about your business, and equips others to speak about you confidently when referring you.
Pricing & Profit
A simple pricing structure keeps clients focused on your photography and brand, not on figuring out deals. Paired with a clear understanding of profitability — including overall business profit, profit per wedding, and your hourly rate, you’ll have the insights to make smart, strategic decisions and plan for growth.
Client Interaction
Does your website motivate visitors to connect with you? Are your emails clear, concise, and responded to promptly? Are you creating a seamless experience from inquiry to delivery? Identifying hurdles in client interaction ensures a smooth experience that strengthens trust and loyalty.
Efficient Workflows
With a team photographing nearly 100 weddings a year, every second counts. Learn the workflow strategies we use to maximize efficiency without sacrificing quality or client experience.
Join Mike on March 1, 2026 in Pottstown, PA for a full-day, hands-on workshop designed to help you build a profitable and sustainable photography business. The total cost is $1500, with a $500 deposit due upon registration.
Kind Words from Workshop Attendees
I’ve taken workshops from some of the best in the business, and Mike’s business workshop has hands down been the best one of them all! I truly feel that I would be years ahead of where I am now if I had taken Mike’s class when I first started out. Mike truly dives deep into everyone’s business and asks the difficult questions to get everyone to reflect on why they’re doing things a specific way. Mike’s business workshop because it will be the best money you’ve ever spent on your business!

Mike’s coaching has truly set my business up for practical, profitable, sustainable growth. It was, without a doubt, one of the most pivotal investments I have made in my business to date. I earned back my investment almost immediately due to the strategic and pivotal micro-changes I was able to make under his guidance. Mike has brought clarity, organization, and factual numbers to support my business goals! He set me up with not only understanding but also a clear, practical plan. He is caring, kind, and a really great teacher.

I was recommended by a couple friends to take this workshop as I was at a stage in my business where I felt like I was plateauing. Within the first couple hours of the workshop it was so clear to see how much time Mike had spent diving into each and every one of our businesses to find out more about them and how we can improve them.He gently critiqued different aspects of my business with very helpful advice on how to move forward. He crammed so much information into the workshop, making me really feel like I got my money’s worth!

Before Mike’s workshop – I felt like I had a lot of loose ends in different parts of my business. As photographers, we all have our strengths with the art – but most of us are just chickens with our heads cut off when it comes to anything business, me included. I knew my approach to the business side of things could be better. At the workshop, I received an individualized blue print of how to improve everything above. This was easily one of the best workshops I’ve ever taken, do not hesitate to join in the next time this gets offered!!

Attending Mike’s workshop wasn’t an easy decision, because I’ve been burned at workshops where I learned very little. This was nothing like that. Mike is an open book who is willing to share anything he can to help grow and support the industry. The time and detail that he put into tailoring his instruction to each person in the room was wonderful, especially considering that the experience levels of attendees ran the entire gamut. If you’re looking for a workshop to truly help you dig into the minutiae of making your photography business successful, I think you’ll be hard pressed to find a more valuable choice.

We have been in business for over 10 years and we still got a lot out of Mike’s workshop. Mike and Kari put in A LOT of time in studying and understanding the businesses of each workshop attendee PRIOR to the start of the workshop. So when the workshop began Mike was able to tailor the trainings to each attendee in the room. His insight into each of our businesses and his advice on areas that each of us can improve was focused and targeted. We were ready to start on improving specific areas of our business immediately after the workshop, because Mike had shown each of us what it is that he noticed needed to be improved in our business. This was one of the best and most thorough workshops that I have ever attended!

I signed up for Mike’s workshop because I felt like I was a little all over the place with my business. I love that he focuses on branding and being clear with your message as I’ve learned it’s the driving force with your business. Mike spent, what I can only imagine was a TON of time, analyzing our brands, website, pricing, client interactions and gave specific feedback on what we are doing well and what needs to be changed. He went above and beyond the workshop outline to make it a personalized and educational experience!
