"PERSPECTIVES" WORKSHOP DATES ANNOUNCED

LORI NORDSTROM     JULIE KLAASMEYER

The class is $695.00 and will start Sunday at noon and run until Tuesday around 5.  The last workshop was pretty much a 24 hr a day deal, so much learning and even more having fun;-)  The first day will cover mostly business, marketing, ideas, new product highlights, as well as getting down and personal;-)  This would be a great time also to address any topics you would like to cover.  

Monday morning we'll be starting the day with a few photo shoots, taking the photo shoot all the way from concept to final design.  We have 9,ooo. Sq feet to play so we will rotate around and cover different scenarios.  

Tuesday we will focus on workflow, Photoshop, creating brand new "boutique"  items that no one else is doing and discussing techniques to help your studio step it up a notch.  This workshop will be intensely "hands-on"  We believe it is all about separating ourselves from the ordinary portrait photographer.  

Did I mention fun?

Light breakfast, drinks and snacks will be provided.  Sunday night will include a cookout and lunches will be provided Monday and Tuesday.



Flight would need to be made into MCI (kansas city international) and accommodations could be made at our new best western in Paola kansas.  (about 50 miles from mci) 913.294.3700



I'm so excited to be collaborating with Lori on this workshop.  Two unique ideas, styles, and PERSPECTIVES on everything in the business, yet one goal in mind...to create unique portrait art that stands out from the crowd.

UPCOMING WORKSHOP FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS!!!

Here is a little ditty posted by my good friend Leslie hardin:  (i am blushing...)
Fee: $500

If you love Julie's work as much as I do, you don't want to miss this opportunity to learn from her. This will be jammed packed three day workshop filled with tons of educational information and fun. There will be handouts for you to go home with, we'll have a marketing exchange and round table discussion, it's going to be a blast! I want your brains to be tired from being so inspired and learning so much and I want your stomach muscles to be sore from laughing so much from the fun you had when you leave.

Julie is a phenomenal artist and wonderful teacher, and will share anything she can with you. She will inspire you in so many ways and help you in any way she can. She has a great eye for high end style and class and has a great business sense to go along with it.

As you know she's recently teamed up with WHCC to teach a seminar focusing on albums to correlate with their new papers and albums they are releasing and she also has just finished designed her new album templates.

Albums are one of the products that I have been afraid of simply because I just don't have a high end market here and never really knew how to price them so I'm looking forward to learning about how to produce them EASILY, and how to market them effectively. If you have never seen any of her templates, them OMG you must see them. They are truly some of the most beautiful templates you will ever see. She has the market on the boutique grunge look, I have never seen anyone do it better. This is truly Julie's own natural style and she lives it day in and day out.

Although albums will be discussed, Julie will be teaching about marketing, posing, lighting, we'll be photographing models, pricing, photoshop, you tell her what you want to talk about or to cover and she will cover it. It will not be limited to just albums.

Minimum needed: 10 people with a max of 15 we will say for now.

Length of workshop: 2 full days, 1 half day

Cost: $500-includes lunches and Julie's new album templates that she will be working with during the workshop.

When: July 19-21 (Saturday, Sunday and Monday)

Where: My studio address is 900 E. Main Street, Easley, SC 29640 if you want to do a mapquest.

Airport to fly into: Greenville-Spartanburg-

Hotel info: more info to come

My studio is very conveniently located, literally five minutes away from restaurants like Outback, Copper River, Los Amigos or you have fast food.
If the Hobby Lobby is open by then which I think it will be, we'll be 2 minutes from a Hobby Lobby so if you don't have one near you, you can go shopping while you're here. LOL
You're 20 minutes from downtown Greenville from the studio, which we must go to if ya'll come. We have a very artsy urban feel to downtown. You're 20 minutes from the mall from the hotel, and all the shopping, nightlife, etc so you're right at everything when you're here.

If you need to contact me via email, it's lshay@leslieshay.com and here is a link to Julie's website if you would like to view more information about her work www.jklaasmeyer.com
