Workshop Success

It's always an high energy day when I'm in the studio holding a workshop.  We got our day started bright and early with skin care, basic knowledge of color correcting, highlighting & contouring and mastering the "No Makeup" technique.  While the day seemed to be a long one ahead of us, once the makeup kits opened up the time flew by.

Students also participated in a  real professional photo shoot with a celebrity photographer. It makes me smile on the inside to see my students learning and excited to execute their skills. Because my workshops are small groups, students have the comfort to ask questions and get direct answers. These students did an amazing job of learning and applying the skills that were taught. Here are some photos of us behind the scenes photos and a few of their new photos going into their portfolios.
