Saray Taylor-Roman is a Master portrait photographer with The Portrait Masters. She reached Fellow Status earlier in 2019 with 5 times the requirement for silver merits. She currently has 55 silver awards with The Portrait Masters. She also has earned her first four silver awards in her first year of submissions to WPPI.  Saray specializes in Personal Branding and Fine Art portraits and most of her awarded work is what she created for her regular  clients. She has been working as a print handler for the annual WPPI Print Competition since 2018 which also has given her an edge when it comes to curating her own submission work and that of her mentees. She has been supporting Sue Bryce for workshops, folio builds, and The Portrait Masters Conference both domestically and abroad since 2017. Before discovering her photography passion, she was a high school teacher which is one of the reasons why her mentoring and folio review clients love to work with her. She is able to break down complex processes and offer constructive criticism that leads to action.

Since the summer of 2018, her monthly sales have averaged her yearly salary as a first year school teacher. Since then Saray has worked one-on-one with photographers all over the US and abroad to help them create a portfolio they love, adjust their pricing for profitability and sustainability, and develop custom marketing plans to get them bums on seats and ultimately reach financial and time freedom.
