Deciding at the age of 8 Donnamaria decided her life's mission was "To Serve" and in this conversation has allowed herself to evolve that mission at 60 to CREATE. After not one, but two military careers, and a divorce did she finally choose photography to be a vehicle for her to fill her own cup.
It's time to "stop with the good girl shit" and live her life on her terms; with her business and what she creates and for whom. You can find more of Donnamaria's work:

ABOUT CAT FORD-COATES

Cat Ford-Coates has been told to soften her whole career.

She didn't.

She built a multi-six-figure business teaching photographers that the thing keeping them stuck was never the market, the portfolio, or the pricing. It was the voice. The one that sounds like wisdom. The one that keeps moving the goalpost and calling it patience.

She's spent over a decade in rooms with photographers who are extraordinarily talented and somehow still convinced they should be grateful for what they have.

She disagrees. Loudly.

Cat serves photographers who already know what they want. Who know what they're capable of. Who have known for a while, actually, and have spent years finding sophisticated reasons not to claim it.

The question was never whether you're ready.

You already know you are. Stop pretending that you don't.
