MENTOR SESSIONS + portfolio reviews
as a photographer & as Sylvi
I have learned a lot over the past few years—about myself, my photography, and my path to getting where I want to be. Through workshops, coachings, colleagues, mentors. Above all, I’ve learned that asking the right questions is what truly makes a difference. The value of these learning opportunities has been priceless and has helped me grow tremendously.
Investing in your education is one of the most effective ways to accelerate growth. Talking to someone who has been in your position and understands your needs can provide the guidance and motivation to move toward your goals.
I firmly believe that there are no one-size-fits-all solutions—everyone is different and follows their own unique path. That’s why my mentoring sessions are fully tailored to your individual needs, fully tailored to you, and about you!

“Liebe Sylvi, ich danke dir vielmals für deine Zeit und dafür, dass du dein Wissen mit mir geteilt hast. Die Portfolio Review war bei mir schon lange fällig, und ich habe unglaublich viel von dir gelernt. Nicht nur allgemein, sondern auch im Hinblick auf meine eigene Brand.
Danke für deine wertvollen Tipps und Tricks, aber vor allem für die ersten Schritte, wie und wo ich beginnen kann, um meinen Zielen ein Stückchen näher zu kommen. Wirklich Wahnsinn was du so alles mitgeben kannst.
Absolut empfehlenswert und dazu noch sehr sympathisch :) Es hat großen Spaß gemacht! DANKE, DANKE, DANKE.” – Kristina S., Dezember 25

“I had a mentoring session with Sylvi. And I’m really glad I did. It was absolutely worth it. Even just preparing and working through the workbook. Taking the time to formulate everything for yourself quiet helps you to feel your own vision more clearly.
Sylvi answered all my questions, shared her own experiences and gave great and honest input. Getting an outside perspective on myself, my photography, my goals was extremely helpful for me. Once you look at things through a different lens, you start to see things that you may have already sensed but couldn’t quite grasp.
A change of perspective is often necessary to see things more clearly.
I now feel well prepared to tackle all the things that will bring me closer to my goal.” (January 2026)

“I had a 1:1 Mentoring Day with Sylvi, and I’m incredibly glad I took this step. If you feel stuck in your work or creativity—if you have an idea of what you want to achieve but don’t really know how to get there—then let me tell you: that’s exactly how I felt. And that’s why investing in myself and booking the coaching with Sylvi was the best decision I could have made.
The day with her opened my eyes in so many ways. I now have a much clearer understanding of my goals and the steps I need to take to reach them. The time flew by, yet I took so much with me. Sylvi answered every single question I had, was open and honest, and gave me valuable tips I can put into practice right away.
Her warm and genuine personality made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. It truly felt like spending a day with a friend who shares the same passion for wedding photography as I do.
So if you’re considering whether a coaching session could help you move forward: do it! Book the 1:1 mentoring with Sylvi. It was an absolute game changer for me—and I’m sure it will help you just as much.” (December 2025)

“Absolute Herzensempfehlung für die Portfolio Review mit Sylvi! Schon ihr Workbook vor der Review hat so viel Klarheit gebracht. Sylvi stellt darin genau die richtigen Fragen und schafft es, die eigene Vision anzuregen und sich seiner Ziele bewusst zu werden. In der Review selbst stand sie mit all ihrer Erfahrung und Kompetenz an meiner Seite, um mich bei meiner Entwicklung zu unterstützen. Hab ganz herzlichen Dank für diese wunderbare Erfahrung, liebe Sylvi. Herzlichst, Chrissi” - Christina S., Januar 26

“I had a mentoring session with Sylvi – I was truly amazed by how much time she took and how openly I could ask her all my questions. Receiving the detailed workbook in advance was a huge plus for me and really helped me dive into my target audience.
Her honest and precise feedback on my portfolio not only gave me clarity but also new energy for my growth. I walked away from our conversation with so many concrete ideas and real aha moments.
An absolute heartfelt recommendation for anyone who wants to grow in their photography and is looking for honest, professional mentoring.” (November 2025)

“I've been inspired by the way you emotionally, and artistically capture moments for so long. Through your mentoring, you’ve given me many new perspectives to my work. Your questions helped me first understand where I actually want to go, and then see the steps to get there. Your mentoring was the perfect balance between 'asking new questions that truly push me forward' and 'sharing your own experiences and journey.' Thank you so much for that.” (January 2023)
