SEE ME - Transform from ‘camera shy’ to owning the frame

Creatives who build lasting careers aren't just good at their craft. They let people in. The opportunity for connection often starts with a photo. Your face on your digital platforms or in publicity for your projects. Being photographed is a chance to share something real and authentic about ourselves — our passion, our personality, our intent.

But, most of us struggle to share those things with the lens. And while we're hiding ourselves, our competitors are building personal relationships with our potential clients, collaborators and audiences.

This deeply immersive workshop is designed to unlock your connection to any camera. To guide you through a transformative experience – from camera shy to owning the frame.

THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR:

• Anyone who feels awkward when a camera is pointed at them

• Anyone trying to build audiences, collaborations and client lists - who understand that people hire people, not portfolios

• Anyone who need photos that feel like them, not like a stock image

• Anyone who's ever been told "you should put yourself out there more"

YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH:

• A high-quality headshot

• A shift in how you experience being photographed

• A clear sense of what you want people to feel when they find you online

• The confidence that comes from being truly seen by a room full of people who get it

• New connections and relationships
