Anybody struggle with laying out and shooting paper goods? It's harder than it looks! We'll share with you all our suggestions for making really beautiful layouts and how to shoot them
@kellysauer shared with us: "I have never walked out of an interaction with anybody feeling so inspired on so many levels. The thing I loved most was the laid back feeling that you both brought to it - I didn't feel I needed to stand on ceremony with you, or that you were standing in judgement over me. You are a rare find, just being people willing to be real with other people. On a more pragmatic level , I really appreciated @joythigpen 's presentation about uncovering your voice and developing your artistry. And the one-on-one was one of the best photography experiences I've ever had. The portfolio review was so valuable." Thank you for coming and sharing @kellysauer and congratulations on your sweet new baby!!
We asked @kinawicks what she enjoyed most about Studio Sessions: "I enjoyed that it felt like a masters class. It was exciting to not have photography related basics to have to suffer through. You got to the meat of what I wanted to learn right away. Also, the instruction by Joy on the layers of what makes a photo was a personal favorite of mine. I can't stop thinking of it when I make an image lately."

Excited to announce new Studio Sessions dates for Fall 2014. We'll be coming to ATL(Aug 4 + 5), NYC(Sept 4 + 5), and LA(Nov 10 + 11).

Excited to announce a one day workshop for photographers from @oncewed and @joythigpen . Does the following resonate with you? I wish I could shoot the weddings and editorials I see on Once Wed. Why aren't my submissions getting accepted? I see the importance in styling but I rarely get to work with a stylist. How can I style my own images better? If so, this one day workshop is for you. We'll cover everything from aesthetics, how to compose good images, what makes a good image, styling people, tabletop, and details, editing, how to work with and without a stylist, tools and tricks, getting published, and building your portfolio. We are coming to ATL, NYC, LA, SF, and for our European friends(and more adventurous souls) Mallorca. Open to all types of photographers and levels of photography.
