I’m thrilled to announce details for my next Workshop! for pro’s and those that want to go pro… including topics from branding to sales and everything in between! The Workshop in January was a huge success and tons of fun, and I’m looking to top it with this new one!… The workshop will be held at my Studio + Gallery and is limited to a small group so you get plenty of one-on-one instruction and hands on learning. You will be on your feet shooting alongside me during model sessions and will be granted use of the images for your blog and portfolio. The last workshop sold out quickly, so register soon.

Hi Christa,

I heard the first one you did was awesome. Can’t wait for this one – My business needs some advise from an expert!
Totally want to take this Workshop! ARe there still seats available? And how many students are in the class? I love your work and would love to learn from you.
I want to come…..
I highly recommend this workshop! Unlike other lectures/workshops I’ve taken, Christa actually gives you time to DO what she’s teaching – and I loved her attitude throughout the weekend. She really, truly wants to help other photographers shoot better and be more successful as business people. It wasn’t a “look at how fabulous I am” workshop, it was a “look how fabulous YOU can be” workshop!!! Thanks Christa!!!
looks like you have been busy, was looking at some of your images and saw the pic of olive myself and my mom (just used it as a mothers day card)….olive is almost 2 1/2..time flies! LOVE the pics of the city that you took, take care!
