Ready to Learn?
My workshops are designed for both new and experienced photographers. I share all the knowledge I’ve aquired in 10+ years of photographing, including my personal tips and photography hacks. This is a great opportunity to ask me questions, practice assignments, and get to know fellow photographers who are also here to learn.
Workshops are exclusive, which gives us time to get to know each other so we can better address to your learning needs. The hands-on portion will include working with models and/or post-processing your images, which we will critique to help you build on the knowledge you’ve already acquired.
After attending the workshop you will have free access to our private FB Group Page, where you can keep in touch with the community and stay updated on upcoming workshop dates.
I am looking forward to meeting you! Scroll below and sign-up today.
