New York City Workshops | New York City & Californa Wine Country {Styleshop} + win a seat!

Friday, May 27, 2011

Congrats to Wendy Ramos (she won the last giveaway for a seat in the workshop! – Thanks Wendy)

Similar to the recent {Styleshop) Wedding photography workshop at the incredible Villa La Selva in Tuscany that sold out,  I’m hosting 2 more Styleshop Wedding Photography workshops in:

New York City on June 9-10th (view & signup)

San Luis Obispo on June 29-30th(view & signup)

In New York, we are planning on having a guest speaker come from one of the online wedding blogs and talk about getting your work submitted to magazines & editorial content.  In San Luis Obispo we’ll be hosting a styled shoot at the vineyard estate we will be at (plus a how-to set up a styled shoot as well)

The 1st part is about specializing, defining your style and you’ll also get to shoot the second half the day until the amazing sunset.

The second day is all about branding, positioning and marketing yourself. All about the business behind specializing and how to be unique.  I’ll share what I’ve done with my specialization of “Estates & Vineyards”, how its changed my business.  Then we’ll go over simple examples of what you need to outline your own.  Stop being a generalist & stop guessing.  Gain clarity & purpose.

These have a limited amount of seats to enable everyone to get a chance to shoot, and interact with questions and dialogue with the group.

I’m going to be giving away one seat in the workshop for the 1st day.  To be entered retweet any workshop twitter post using @mikelarsoninc and share or like this on facebook!  Last date to enter will be June 5th, I will announce the winner at noon on May 11th, Pacific Standard time!  The last winner was Wendy Ramos

Oregon Travel Photography, Workshops | Oregon by horseback

Tuesday, November 2, 2010

Today we were preparing for the “For the love Workshop” this week, and as I was reflecting what I was going to chat about, I was able to get away and get an overview of the land we were spending time in.  Thanks to Jody Gray for taking the image of me!  I’m so amped for the creativity that I was inspired with and the purpose for this week.

Workshops | For the Love

Tuesday, June 1, 2010


Last February at WPPI 2010, the big Photography convention, I was approached by Ginny Corbett who invited  Jody & Zach Gray & I to breakfast.  After connecting and chatting, Ginny shared with us the opportunity to collaborate on a really sweet new workshop series in the snowy hills of Oregon.  I LOVE the pacific northwest in the winter, especially in.  Log cabins, winter white snow dustings covering bursting green evergreens and streams gushing with water.  Simple peace and quite in the mountains with warm fireplaces and good friends. Scarfs and sleds.  Cooking nights where we make fresh organic & healthy food from scratch! (I’m a big foodie).  Shooting outside for hours, creating a new inspiration in a peaceful and quite outdoor setting.  All of this makes me really excited.

Here we are presenting a fresh new perspective to the freedom we can create in our lives as photographers to better serve our clients.  Everything I’m passionate about; my love for this art, the creativity process, the talent God has blessed me with, developing friendships & relationships with those I capture and how I continue to strive to master my craft, these and more I’ll be sharing with those who attend during this opportunity to gather for a week in November (11/1-11/5)  So if you want to be more grounded in your faith, have vision, purpose, and perspective for your work life and spiritual life, gain a fresh and new passion for your work, then I invite you to check this out and find out if its right for you.

Registration starts today, June 1st 2010! More details on the website located  here! Or to register here!
