Fake it ’til you Make it

Portfolio Building Workshop

The Canary Shed, Essex

Sunday 9th May 2021

Starting from £395

This one is for the badass photographers and videographers out there!

Yes, that’s right, we’re headed to the South-East’s most exciting new alternative wedding venue – The Canary Shed – to bring you one banger of a content builder! We’ve ditched a predictable ‘styled shoot’ setup and instead we’re giving you the chance to add a FULL faux wedding day to your portfolio – from couple prep right on through to epic dance party!

With two gorgeous real couples along for the ride, we’ll be taking you to a neon-museum, mid-western inspired colour-fest to give your portfolio some serious style. Starting from ‘the wedding morning’, through to a complete ceremony and couple portraits, right on up to the mother of all receptions, we’ll be cracking the smoke grenades, firing the confetti and even throwing in a few little surprises along the way!

Want some substance with all that style? You know we’re here for it too. That’s why Lex will be delivering a live demo on nailing Off Camera Flash – a skill you’ll want to pin down before you head into those late night wedding reception raves! She’ll also be on-hand throughout the day to offer posing tips and tricks, using her heaps of experience in teaching and mentoring to make sure you can flex your creative muscles whilst learning first-hand from a pro in a laid-back environment.

We’ve only got 16 spots up for grabs to give you plenty of shooting time, so go go go!

This workshop is offering up…

Gorgeous bride/groom prep shots
Practice ceremony coverage
Tricks for nailing confetti shots
A mini posing workshop

Smoke grenade practice (it’s trickier than you think!)
Colourful, bold and original styling
A full live demo for perfecting Off Camera Flash
Portfolio-ready dance floor photos

THE VENUE

The Canary Shed

With one of the coolest interiors we’ve ever seen, The Canary Shed is guaranteed to add some fireworks to your content, offering up an enormous colourful bird-covered ceiling, slick industrial vibes and incredible scenery! As the venue’s ONLY current hosted workshop, this is a chance to get ahead of the curve and make a real splash with the images you take, making YOU one of the first and few photographers to be lucky enough to shoot in this amazing space!

There’s also a chance to bag a room at the on-site accommodation The Canary Shed offer and partake in some drinks & pizza the night before the workshop! There are 10 rooms available at just £60 each – drop us an email once you’ve booked on to secure yours.

Who we’re the perfect match for:

New photographers wanting to create a style-led and progressive portfolio to kick-start their business.

Intermediate photographers needing new content for 2021 and a brush up on their skills.

Photographers desperate to organise their own styled shoots but no idea where to start.

We won’t be a great fit for:

Competitive photographers, who aren’t up for sharing the space with a small team.

Someone who needs to learn the basics of photography. Sadly, basic photography is not taught at these workshops – you need to know how shoot

Anyone that loves chair covers.
