“This course is worth the money just to get the tips for posing - you'll use them right away whether you're doing corporate shoots or portraits”
MC
“All I kept thinking was: why did I waste so much time and money on college! I learned so much from Scott. He is one of the most intelligent and hilarious photographers I have ever seen. The "posing" segment alone is worth the money. Watching him I'm like, yeah I would be confident to hire that man for whatever he would charge me. And it's making me more confident and fired up to go out and try these things too.”
Jill
“I really enjoyed Scott's course. Extremely informative and practical, which is the kind of teaching I like. Having watched it right through, I have just photographed a wedding bearing in mind his advice, and I’ve managed to get easily the best set of portraits I’ve ever taken”

"There is no other course that I have created that is this complete where I have gathered all my best techniques in one class. I wanted to create systematic and repeatable techniques for people to build on to create their own posing signature style with variety and emotional impact."
