KSFinearts workshop - such a rewarding experience!

"If you want to take your images to the Fine Art level, I HIGHLY recommend Kelly Schneider’s Fine Arts Glamour/Boudoir Workshop! What an amazing experience! A weekend jam packed with nothing but HANDS-ON instruction. No better way to learn than to DO it yourself. I lost count on how many beautiful models were involved, but what an awesome selection! They were so professional and pleasant to work with - even in the below freezing conditions!!! Trust me when I say I avoided Photoshop like the plague - now I have the confidence to explore more!"

- Marcia Kirton-Caesar

This was so great, I can't gush enough. It is one thing to do portfolio building with "here is the gear, now set it up" and quite another thing with, "Looks good! But what if you moved it just this far, now see?" POW! That was the style of teaching we received last weekend!

"I loved the fact that after they would show us how to do something, they would then push us to recreate what they had done. So often you write down facts and wait until later to practice them, that didn’t happen during their class."
