Worried about your inquiry numbers this year?

You’re not alone—we’ve ALL felt that stress

Maybe you’re wondering…

“How is everyone else getting inquiries?”

“Is something on my website turning people away?” 

“What can I say to convince clients to give me a chance?” 

Here’s the truth friend

There are only two possible reasons you’re not getting enough inquiries right now:

(and they’re both fixable)

Either your marketing isn’t getting the right people to you

or

Your website isn’t selling you like it should

But the good news is:

You don’t need to market MORE to get more inquiries

(you just need the right kind of targeted, efficient marketing approach)

AND

You can make massive improvements to your website fast

(all it takes is tiny but mighty changes that anyone can do)

I’m so excited to teach this because

I know this works

My student Cameron went from zero inquiries in 6 months to seeing inquiries the very next day implementing the website tweaks I teach

A social media post by Cameron says they hadn't received website enquiries for 6 months, but after updating their site using tips from Maddie's course, they got their first enquiry within days and express excitement about it.

My student Kimberly got a dream elopement inquiry that booked her within two hours of updating her website and went from position 50 to position 14 on google within days!

A social media post describes how updating a website led to a client inquiry and higher search rankings within 24 hours. Text highlights the success happening "within two hours" after launching a new investment page.

Hey Friend, I’m maddie mae

I get 1-3 inquiries per day and I book $14,000 clients on average

Since 2016, I’ve made over $4.1 million in bookings 

Solely through my website. 

What has made my business so successful is making sure that my website is easy to navigate, addresses clients’ concerns head-on, and pops up in the search results for what they’re Googling.

I know websites can be intimidating, but if you’re not getting enough inquiries… trust me, this is where to start.

And you don’t have to do it alone.

That’s why I created

Clicks & Clients

A live, 5-day Website & Marketing Intensive designed to:

WHO’S TEACHING THIS MENTORING INTENSIVE?

Meet Maddie Mae

Award-winning luxury destination elopement photographer
Business & Marketing Coach

With 300+ elopements under my belt, I’ve traveled to 43 countries and all 7 continents to help couples create their dream elopement days and have been recognized by Forbes magazine as “the woman who helped spark the adventure elopement trend.”

When I first picked up a camera, I thought this was just a dream, but with strategies I learned in business school, I went from a struggling and undercharging, to a thriving 6-figure photographer in my first year full-time, documenting unreal elopements across 13 countries.

Today, my current average booking price is $14,000 per elopement and with 50-100 organic inquiries per month, I have the luxury of being selective about what bookings I take on.

Guess what? I can teach you what it takes to reach this too. I've seen hundreds of photographers I've mentored achieve it.

Let me show you exactly how to build a business that thrives.

Questions?

We’ve got answers

Just like the group mentoring calls I do for members of Thrive, I’ll be hosting these private, live group mentoring calls on Zoom. As soon as you sign up, you’ll receive the zoom links for all 5 days of calls and be able to add them to your calendar + get reminders to show up.

I can promise you that even if you attend just one of these calls (or even part of one), you’ll come away with incredible value. But don’t worry, if you have to miss one (or arrive late or leave early), I’ll be recording these mentoring calls and the replays are included when you sign up (and they'll be available to rewatch until February 26th 2026!) The call recordings will be private and only available to those who sign up for this exclusive experience.

Private mentoring sessions with me typically run $3,000 and I’ve only ever offered group mentoring to enrolled members of Thrive. However, I know that the 2025 season has been difficult for so many photographers, and I hate seeing such talented and passionate creatives struggling to compete against each other for price, when I know there is a path for each one to confidently thrive in a league of their own. I love helping other photographers succeed and actually considered offering this experience for free, but settled on a very low cost so that I could keep this experience more private and personal, and to motivate everyone who signs up, to show up and get their full value.

I don’t want to hold onto anyone’s money who isn’t happy with the education I provide. So if for any reason you sign up, attend live and aren’t happy for any reason—just ask within 14 days and I’ll give you a 100% refund.

We have answers! Shoot me & my team a message at hello@adventureinsteadacademy.com and we'll take care of you!

14-day no-questions-asked refund guarantee

I don’t want to hold onto anyone’s money who isn’t happy with the education I provide. So if for any reason you sign up, attend live and aren’t happy for any reason—just ask within 14 days and I’ll give you a 100% refund. 

Are you ready to learn how to fill your inbox with dream inquiries in just 5 days?

I’m excited to meet you and give you my high-converting website framework and proven, predictable marketing system
