Why do I teach?
I have been asked numerous times why take time out of a successful portrait business to teach other photographers...well I was a self taught photographer for most of my career and it took years of trial and error and practice to improve and learn. I offered to intern for established photographers when I didn't have the finances yet for workshops but nobody wanted to hire me--they told me the market was saturated, there wasnt room for more photographers, that it was a hard business to be successful so find something else--yes the professional industry told me these things. Talk about discouraging, well with the support and encouragement of my husband, family, & friends to push through and learn. Through the years I have improved and built a successful profitable portrait business and wish to help in the success of those seeking to fulfill their dreams in this business.
Why small group?
I have mentored photographers over the past year one-on-one and have found great satisfaction in giving back and helping those starting out where I did myself years ago. But with a new baby and my portrait business being very busy I have less time on my hands. So this year I have decided to offer small group workshops, adding more to the curriculum and allowing aspiring photographers to walk away with what they need to start on the right foot in a baby photography business. I still have limited one-on-one openings if you do prefer that type of learning environment.
What is included?
- 1 day small group workshop on April 28th from 9-5, snacks & lunch
- Training for: business, marketing, sales, session prep & setup, shooting & session flow, posing, post processing in Lightroom and Photoshop
- Our workshop workbook of all covered topics to reference later
- Rita's custom templates for her baby announcements and most popular album
- Rita's custom actions
- Posing guides with setup and lighting details for all first year sessions--newborn, smiling, sitting, standing/Birthday**
