Get Unstuck. Move forward – Faster.

Spark Time is a focused, 1:1 strategy session to help you move something important forward—whether you’re shaping a project, clarifying an idea, or just need a second brain.

What is Spark Time?

This isn’t coaching. It’s not therapy.
It’s a direct, supportive conversation to help you find clarity, momentum, and your next step. Whether you’re halfway into a project or circling something new, this is where you figure it out—with someone who gets it.

We can meet over Zoom or in person if you’re local.
Either way, you’ll receive a recording or transcript of the session so you can stay present and revisit what we uncover—without scrambling to take notes.

Michael Stewart Patrick Kent

Founder of Spark Studio, Photo Club, and Allen-Kent Photo

I’m a photographer, creative strategist, and long-time collaborator who helps thoughtful people bring their best work to life. That might mean shaping a new offer, planning a course, simplifying your tech, or just figuring out what’s next.

Over the years, I’ve worked with coaches, therapists, and artists who were sitting on something powerful—but talking themselves out of it. Not because they weren’t ready, but because they felt stuck, unsure, or overwhelmed.

Spark Studio exists to change that.
This isn’t just about building content—it’s about building momentum, clarity, and confidence in the work that matters most to you.

What can you use it for?

A few real world examples:

Untangling a half-formed idea

Planning a new offer or service

Working through a content or messaging block

Talking through how AI could (or shouldn’t) fit your work

Mapping out a project you’ve been circling for too long

Figuring out what to do next—strategically, not just emotionally

Pre-Prep Planning

You’ll get a short, thoughtful questionnaire so I can understand where you're at and what you're working through—no homework, just a chance to make sure we use our time well.

Spark Time Session

A 1-hour call—on Zoom or in person (if you’re local). We’ll talk it out, dig into what’s stuck, and work toward a clear next step. This is real-time problem solving, not fluffy coaching.

Review

Afterward, you’ll get a video or audio recording (and/or a transcript), along with any key notes or takeaways—so you can stay fully present in the session without needing to write everything down.

Rinse and Repeat as necessary

This can be a one-off reset or something we do more regularly. You set the pace—come back when you're circling something new or need that extra spark.

“I’ve been photographing weddings and families for 10 years and never once thought about how to teach this craft—until I worked with Michael.

I had no idea how much intention and purpose I was placing into my work until we sat down together and dug in.”

Let’s talk it out, clear the fog, and find your next move.
No pitch. No pressure. Just a real conversation to help you move forward faster.
