What photographers are saying…
Emily Brinkman
“It has empowered me as a business owner to understand my numbers, budget, projections, you name it. I am excited to work on my bookkeeping now. It is no longer a pain point. It is something that I see as a tool in my business, and that would have never been possible without Tiffany. And I cannot say enough praises about her and her investment in her students.”

You bet. I have an MBA in accounting and over 20 years of experience. I am a certified Enrolled Agent (EA, not a CPA). Unlike a CPA I’m licensed in all 50 states and can file taxes in each of them. I work solely with photographers, so I know the ins and outs of the business and tax situations. In the vault, I’ll share how to pay taxes when doing a shoot in another state, write-offs specific to your business in your state, and all sales tax intricacies you need to know.
