Our Shoot and Learn is a hybrid of a shoot-out and an in-person workshop! We've married two incredible experiences together for this Shoot and Learn! Shoot alongside instructors while getting to understand the "method to their madness," as they breakdown their process and answer all your questions! Our Shoot and Learn experience will allow you ample time to shoot and interact with models one-on-one creating unique shots ONLY you have, but also time to watch and learn from all the other creatives in attendance. Each Shoot and Learn experience will have a dedicated "Ask Me Anything," with the instructor to ask any questions you may have missed during the session! Our goal is to not just have you leave with stunning imagery to add to your portfolio, but also help you improve your craft through education! If you're looking to grow as an artist... this is for you!

Will travel and accommodations be included? 

Transportation and accommodations are not provided for our Shoot and Learn experiences.  We offer these types of events to keep the cost low so that they are accessible to all artist. If you are flying in from out of state the closest airport is Palm Springs International (50 miles to location) in which there are car rental options.  The Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Joshua Tree area hosts endless airbnb and hotel options. It is our hope that you will connect with other attending artists and will coordinate your stay to choose your own adventure!  There is so much to see on the west coast and we hope you make the most of it!

How long is each shoot?

Each experience will last approximately two hours, with the majority of the time dedicated to instruction for the lead artist and time for attendees to shoot.  Each shoot will conclude with our Instructor Question and Answer!  Both shoots will take place in ONE DAY from approximately 1:30-8:00pm.
