Boutique Workshops For Creatives
Workshops should be the place for learning instead of fighting with another photographer for a shot. That is why I've created an education and workshop experience where every creative gets a fighting chance to grow.

Within the first 15 min of our conversation, Steph was able to point out to me things I could do to help me shift my focus on what I needed to do to fast-track my business."

Palm Springs/Joshua Tree - November 2-4
Where
This November we are having a 10 person workshop at a beautiful retro home in Palm Springs. Attendees are invited for a Photo Walk around downtown Palm Springs followed by a complimentary dinner at a local hot spot! The next two days will be filled with morning educational chats couch side. Coffee and Snacks will be provided.
For the first full day, we will have two couples (hetero and same-sex) so each attendee can have plenty of time to create alongside their peers. Sunset will be finished off with a shoot near the windmills!
The following day we will head to Palm Springs for a gorgeous Joshua Tree experience. Joshua Trees are exquisite and if you have never stopped to view them then you are in for a treat! Our beautiful model can be seen on this page.
A Note: These shoots are not detail-focused. Our workshops focus on the meaning of an image. Creating a relationship with your subject is one of the most important things I teach. This workshop is for those wanting to step out of the industry mold and create authentic images. There will not be tablescapes or flat lays. We are here to truly tell a story with our subjects and the backdrops where we place them.
Education
No one workshop is alike and so during the Palm Springs/Joshua Tree Workshop I will be focused on educating on the following:
- Developing a strong and healthy business
- Business workflow
- Authentic Branding
- Film/Digital Editing and film matching
- Natural and Authentic Posing with your clients
Who is this for
This workshop is for anyone with a camera in their hand and wants to create a successful photography business. You do not need to be a pro or even shoot film. We are here to learn from one another and help each other become successful photographers.
Details
There are 10 available slots for this Workshop. I will not be adding more. The boutique experience is meant to give each attendee ample time to create their own individual images without pressure or time constraints. First come First Serve
When: November 2nd-4th
Where: Palm Springs/Joshua Tree
How Much: $1250 Per Attendee (50% deposit to reserve your spot)
Along with the Styled Shoots, each attendee will have headshots captured by myself and a 30-minute portfolio review. Attendees are asked to bring 100 of their favorite images to be reviewed.
I hope to see you there!
A special thank you to our Sponsors & Styled Shoot Partners!

I had hit a wall with my photography and Steph was just the boost I needed to get back in gear."
