Meta Ads Bootcamp

The Exact Method That Booked £25k in Weddings

THE SIMPLE META AD METHOD THAT WORKS

A Two-Part Bootcamp For Meta Ads

A repeatable ads system that takes your kind of client from ‘Oh Hello’ to ‘Where Do We Sign?’

 

Just £75 – Instant Access

A 2-day Barn Live bootcamp to help you book more weddings with Meta ads.

If you’ve ever boosted an Instagram post, crossed your fingers, and hoped the right couples would somehow land in your inbox… you’re not alone.

Maybe you’ve tried Meta Ads before but they’ve simply not delivered – I hear you.

Meta ads are not magic beans; they need a little strategy behind them to perform well.

This bootcamp is about building a simple, repeatable ads system that fits into a proper marketing pipeline – one that understands your customer, speaks to the right couples, and guides them into booking.

Taught by wedding photographer, James Watson (Birches & Pine) who has used a straightforward Meta ads strategy to book over £25k in weddings so far, and he’s currently seeing 92% ROI from his ads.

Not because he’s a tech wizard.

Not because he has a massive audience.

Because he stopped guessing and started running ads with intent.

And now he’s teaching you the exact setup.

Meet Your Host

James Watson of Birches and Pine didn’t set out to become a wedding photographer. It started after travelling abroad and studying photography, then deciding it was time to quit the sensible route and back himself. He travelled through India and Nepal (including an unplanned extension thanks to an earthquake), came home, and built Birches & Pine from the ground up.

He’s all about travel, people, and a genuinely good slice of cake. He’s a lifelong vegetarian with a strong belief that custard deserves its own food group, can play a lot of instruments (badly, by his own admission), has travelled to six continents, and lived in Kenya for a year – where one of his photos ended up on a billboard. He’s also the kind of person who gets back into mountain biking, breaks his collarbone just before wedding season, and still cracks on.

Most importantly for you: he’s taken Meta ads from “I’ll try a boost and hope” to a simple strategy that’s producing real bookings.

 

Why I’m teaching this with James

James started exactly where most photographers do – dabbling and hoping.

With a bit of guidance, he got smarter, stripped it back, tested properly, and built a formula that works.

And because it’s working so well, I’ve asked him to lay it all out for you in a focused, two-day format.

What you’ll learn

Day 1: Build it properly (before you even open Ads Manager)

Because ads only work when the foundations are solid.

We’ll cover:

  • What to sort ahead of time so your ads don’t flop
  • The mindset shift that stops you wasting money
  • How to position your work so couples click for the right reasons
  • The pipeline piece most photographers miss (and then blame Meta for)

 

Day 2: Run campaigns that don’t need constant babysitting

This is where it gets practical.

James will walk you through:

  • Simple campaign setup 
  • Why he avoids over-targeting (and what to do instead)
  • Realistic ad spend – and how to choose yours
  • How long to let ads run so you don’t panic-pull them too early
  • How to let Meta do more of the work
