Photography Mentor & Educator
Natasha Sewell
Meet natasha.
I’m Natasha—a Washington, DC-based in-home family photographer and educator with over a decade of experience capturing real, meaningful moments for families. I’m also deeply passionate about helping other photographers grow with confidence and clarity.
Through mentoring, courses, and intimate retreats in my Palm Springs home, I support family and newborn photographers who are ready to simplify their business, elevate their client experience, and actually enjoy this creative life.
When I’m not behind the camera or mentoring, you’ll find me walking my Shih Tzu, traveling whenever I can, or redecorating a space.
If you’re looking for a mentor who gets it—and who’s here to cheer you on every step of the way—I’d love to connect.
- I want to expand my business, but don't know where to start.
- I'm scared at the thought of shooting in clients' homes.
- My posing is so stiff and boring.
- I want an experienced photographer to guide me.
- I'm ready to be pushed out of my comfort zone.
Hiring a mentor is often a game-changer for your business. When I hired my first mentor over 8+ years ago, my business grew, but more than that, my confidence and purpose expanded in ways I never dreamed were possible.
When you hire me as your mentor, I'm dedicated to help you get to the next level in your photography business. Whether you're in your first few years or first few decades of photography, these 1:1 mentoring sessions are tailored to you and your needs, right down to what we talk about.

"Natasha simplified tasks for me and was always so positive."
"I'm so thankful for my time with Natasha.
She helped me realize I didn't need to reinvent the wheel. I could make little changes here and there instead of buying all the shiny new things.
Highlights included the website review, encouragement to raise my prices, client communication and editing tips.
I also loved having Voxer access to Natasha."

"Natasha is passionate about helping other photographers succeed."
"Natasha's expertise in photography and running a business for over ten years is invaluable.
Her support, business advice, and feedback have helped me immensely since pivoting my business to branding. She's been an open book & incredibly supportive in whatever area of my business I needed help with.
She's been my biggest cheerleader and is passionate about helping other photographers succeed. I can't recommend her enough!!!"

"Natasha structures her mentorships so that you maximize every moment with her. She reviews your work ahead of time so that your zoom call with her is very direct and you can both come prepared with specific questions and have an action plan by the end.
Even better? You aren't left hanging afterwards, she utilizes voice messaging to answer any questions you have as you work through your action items. I gained a ton of insight and worked through even more action items thanks to her!"
"Natasha has a natural gift as a leader in the industry."

"Natasha left me feeling confident each step of the way."
"Mentoring with Natasha from NPS was absolutely amazing. She catered the experience to my needs and helped me build my photography business from the ground up!
Her process is seamless. Not only is she knowledgeable, she clearly has a passion for helping new photographers thrive. If you or someone you know is interested in a mentorship, Natasha is the best out there. I look forward to working with her again in the future as my business grows. "

READY TO UPLEVEL?
In 2013, my three children were in school full-time, and I reached for my camera and never looked back. Today, as a lifestyle family and newborn photographer serving the Washington, D.C. area, I capture my clients' lives in its beautiful and unscripted style, all in the most tender of places: home.
What makes me a great mentor for you? I'm a teacher at heart, and my degree is in elementary education. I also have a thirst for learning and am always looking for opportunities to up my photography and business game!
I know the transformation that's possible when you have a mentor supporting your dreams. I can't wait to customize your 1:1 session to your needs and questions as we work together to take your business to the next level.
