Do you feel like you need to reinvent yourself to keep up with the constant needs, changes and attitudes of teens? Do you struggle to stay relevant and fresh?
Are you tired? Do you look wistfully back to the days when we didn’t have to load our social media with never ending posts to stay in front of your client’s face?
the Workshop
Kia Bondurant feels those same pressures, and she is excited to host her first live, studio workshop in 10 years. During this 2 day, jam-packed workshop, you will hear real advice, and you will find guidance from a survivor of the tough world of owning a business catering to teens.If you are on a mission to find yourself and your creativity this year, this workshop is for you.
The Teacher
Kia owns one of the top senior photography studios in the country, and she navigated it through the biggest changes in the photography industry - film to digital, print advertising to social media, booming business to recession to minimalism. As you saw through these years, Kia is a consistent source of energy and creative ideas. Be a part of her excitement, so you can breath new life into your portrait business.
The process
Each year, Kia shoots fresh and fashionable images for her high school senior models. She uses those images for her social media advertising campaigns. You are invited to come to Kia’s studio and shoot alongside her during one of these StyleMuse magazine photo shoots. Kia will also teach her studio workflow, from an aspirational photoshoot to booking, selling, image processing and framing the final products. Kia will even do a demo of her favorite senior posing flow with a regular senior session.
What you will get
You will walk away from this workshop with fresh fashion ideas for your senior photography, new tips and approaches to studio workflow, a better understanding of the Gen Z senior client (and their parents!), a workable plan for your own senior social media and darling images to jumpstart your 2022 senior gallery.
