Discount Codes
In this section, you will find various discount codes that will benefit you when using them. I personally use all of these products or companies in my photography business. I never promote a product or company before testing and believing in what they have to offer.
Some companies give me a kickback or incentive when my codes are used, but not all of them do that. In fact, many companies offer incentive codes for everyone who signs up with them, not just influencers in the industry. When you sign up for some of these companies, you may be offered your own discount code to share.
I never promote a company just because they asked me to promote them. In fact, I've turned down companies because some didn't fit my business and I wouldn't feel right about promoting a product that I wouldn't use.
My point is that I love these companies. I want to share how great they are with you and save you some money in the process.
MoLight
I use MoLights for all my entire studio. Photographer Michael Mowbray is the guy behind MoLight and his customer service is outstanding. MoLights are Godox branded lights. They are easy to use, portable and so affordable. I love them! Powerful HSS and TTL that works with ease. Use DAN20 to save $20 on any order that is $399 or more. It may be used once per customer.
Rebooku
Rebooku has been a life saver for me. I outsource all my retouching which allows me to focus on things that are more profitable for my studio. I also outsource some album design if I want a more graphic look instead of a clean look. Use the code: Ref5zjz2AH6 to save 10% off your first order.
My Photo App
I've been making apps for my clients for several years using My Photo App. It is a great app building program and so easy to use. You can do so much with it including add forms to collect data, text alerts, tracking, adding videos and so much more. The owner is always adding new features to make it even better. This is a great little marketing tool that has made a huge impact on my studio.

My Frievalt Photography website is done by PhotoBiz.

They always are super helpful with any questions you may have. They also have helped me optimize my site to get better SEO which has been a huge bonus!
