Chianti Italy Workshops | The 3rd Italy Experience: Tuscany Photography Workshop

Tuesday, April 3, 2012



The Italy Experience III – June 4-7th 2012

Our last two Italy workshops (featured on Style me Pretty) have been incredible.  This two and a half day workshop one is going to be spectacular because we’ve secured a luxury villa to shoot and stay at, as well as we teamed up with Vanessa from Alchemy Fine Events.  All of this takes place in the heart of Chianti!  Lodging and food is ALL-INCLUSIVE!  This means we’ll learn together, eat and bond as we grow and challenge each other.

The first day is about specializing, defining your style & shooting right the 1st time.  Then a casual portrait during the second half the day.

The second day is all about executing all the specifics and practical application of your brand, as well as the relational side of the business.  Day two also features an amazing, fully styled wedding inspiration shoot designed by Alchemy Fine Events!

Lodging & accommodations at Tenuta Di San Giusto are included. Here is our group from the workshop last spring!

We’ll end with a cooking class on Thursday. 3 days that will inspire and change your approach to business and photography forever.

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.
