Amazing content! Covers all the bases.

The workshop was the best investment that I have made in my business — I only regret that I didn’t take it earlier.

Extremely helpful.
Mike Smith Aurora, IL
The online workshop covered everything it was supposed to.

I knew even in week one that it was going to be worth the money. I am more confident in my choices and skills especially with posing and lighting. It’s like taking several college courses in just 6 weeks! But with such practical application it’s unreal.
Shea Mayberry, Dana Point, CA
Recommended. I’m more confident. More at ease. More professional about business aspects. More comfortable behind the camera.

I would tell everyone to take the course.

Karen mentioned that although she’s playful and silly most of the time, she wanted to show that she can be sexy and provocative, too. She said she felt like she has never really “oozed sexiness” overtly, and that she’d really love to capture the serious sexpot woman she knows is in there in addition to the playful girl.
