MASTERCLASS
I love how much information Donatella gives you. She doesn't hold back at giving you her honest opinion which is so so highly appreciated. So many other mentors give you general/broad answers and she just completely divulges every last detail. As Donatella gives you a response and more questions are popping up in your head, she is already answering them before you get the chance to ask. Everything was just so insightful. This class is going to save you so much time and effort in struggling and trying to figure it out. When you compare the time/effort/money doing it on your own/other programs vs Donatella's course, it's a no-brainer to choose Donatella. You are going to save so much money, time, effort and have more information in the end than if you went another route. I am so happy I booked your 3 courses because out of each one I came out with huge revelations.

Donatella did not spare time and effort in sharing the secrets of successfully building a high end photography business. I wish more photographers followed this training.

I did a lot of workshops online and you did a great job with interesting information, not too slow, just perfect and a lot of new information. Not stuff you heard over and over again.

The Donatella Nicolini Online Masterclass Series
3 Recorded Sessions | 7 Hours of High-Value Education | Watch Anytime
In late 2020 and early 2021, when the world was on pause and all my in-person workshops and conferences were cancelled, I decided to bring my knowledge directly to photographers’ homes.
The result was a special series of three online masterclasses, each streamed live at the time, with in-depth presentations, slides, and Q&A sessions. Designed to give photographers actionable tools to improve their craft and their business.
These sessions are not live photoshoots: they are pure education, packed with detailed explanations, step-by-step breakdowns, and answers to real photographers’ questions.
Now, you can access all three recorded masterclasses and learn at your own pace.

3 recorded masterclasses (originally broadcast in December 2020 – February 2021)

Dear Donatella,
I have attended your live marketing masterclass and I'd like to leave a review:
Your marketing Masterclass has been absolutely above my expectations! It was so detailed, it was brilliantly built up, focused, and all-encompassing, no details left out. I have raved about your masterclass to my photographer friends already. Thank you for your time and talent. Truth be told, this was more than affordable for the amount of knowledge shared. If this was created by an American (knowing from experience) this would have been a minimum of £500. So thank you, this has been brilliant.

This masterclass was a real wake up call.
