One-on-One Prop Styling Intensive 3-day Workshop
& Follow Up Coaching Package

to set up a discovery call

Spend 3 days in my NYC studio learning, styling, and shooting in a program designed specifically for you. This immersive program is for stylists, makers, foodies, photographers, and social media content creators of any level seeking to improve their styling capabilities and is uniquely tailored to your interests, goals, and expertise. After our initial Discovery Call, from the minute you book your workshop we begin our work together. I’ll send you a detailed discovery questionnaire, and after reviewing your responses, I design a custom program that suits your needs and goals, with instruction that empowers you to hit the ground running. This part is extremely important as it gives you clarity of focus and allows me to get to know you better. We meet again over zoom to go over everything you’ve stated and discuss plans for our photo shoots during our days together.

All sessions include:
• The Discovery Questionnaire for you to fill out
a pre-visit planning meeting,
demonstration & participation in interactive hands-on photo shoots,
Materials* (*you’ll bring some special items with you)
Lunch in a nearby cafe or brought in, drinks and snacks
a portfolio review (if applicable), and a copy of my book, STYLING BEYOND INSTAGRAM or a styling kit goody bag.

Day One: Welcome & Orientation: Get to know the studio, props and plan the shoots.
Day Two: The Principles of Styling: Flexing Creativity and Learning Technique
Day Three: The Business of Styling: Getting Started and Working in the Field

There are 3 skill level options for the One-on-One Intensive.
Schedule a discovery call to determine which track is right for you:

Square One: Learn the basics to kick start your career in styling. For beginner stylists or Instagrammers seeking to learn the basics of the photo shoot environment, with a focus on creative, technique, planning, and logistics. We'll start the day gathering inspiration and learning about the stylistic elements that create impactful images. You'll then decide on a direction and theme for your shoot, choose items from my vast and carefully curated prop and supply collection, and let the ideas start flowing as we style and shoot. By the time you leave, you'll be ready to take on the world, armed with the tools to plan and execute your next shoot.

Level Two & Website Reboot: For photographers, experienced stylists looking to switch gears or branch out into new areas and foodies and makers of products in need of high-quality imagery for their websites. Together we’ll focus on your accomplishments and where you want to take your career. We'll map out a strategy for change, seeing what types of portfolio images are needed to take you in the new desired direction and we'll shoot new images. This option is especially recommended for wedding stylists looking to transition to the commercial prop styling space or add product styling to their skill set.

Corporate/Business Training: For those sent by their company to learn photo styling techniques to enhance their performance and supplement their skill set at work involving the creation of image assets in a specific commercial niche. This workshop has elements of both of the above options, and is recommended for those in retail, publishing, social media, e-commerce and branding. Two employees from one company may attend this course together. I am also available to train your team on-site and put together a prop and surface collection for you. Learn more here.

“Never have I felt as supported and encouraged as I was during this workshop. I came away feeling validated, revitalized and purposeful with a list of action steps to put me on a path towards working commercially."
—Janelle Gonyea Graves, prop stylist, Chicago
