Intro to Photography: A Hands-On Beginner Workshop

This in-person, hands-on workshop is designed for photographers who already know how to use their camera a little but want to grow their skills, gain confidence, and create a more empowering experience for their clients.
During this session, we’ll cover:
✨How I got started + what I wish I knew back then
✨Lenses in plain English (prime vs. zoom, when to use them)
✨Budget-friendly accessories that make life easier
✨My love for natural light + tips for finding it anywhere
✨A simple at-home or on-location setup for beginners
✨A peek into my editing and delivery process
✨How to create an empowering environment and experience for anyone you photograph
💖Bonus: We’ll have a live model to work with, so you can put new skills into practice right away.
❗️Seats are super limited (only 5 available!), keeping it small, personal, and interactive. That means you’ll finally get to ask the questions you’ve been Googling in the middle of the night!
You’ll walk away with practical skills, new inspiration, and the confidence to create beautiful, empowering images.
💵 Only $97 per person
