At the Paris workshop, I talked a lot about how to SAVE TIME on editing, imaging, & album design. You don’t have to slave your life away behind your computer screen! To prove a point, I made the claim that I could design an album in under an hour. So while all the workshop gals were working on their images… I was in this focused-nerdy-Kimberlee-world of album design. I tuned everything/everyone out, buckled down, and designed an album. The exact time it took me? 24 minutes. I’m a super competitive person, so when I challenge myself, I do everything in my power to complete the challenge. I didn’t realize just how focused I was until I saw this video Courtney posted on Facebook. What a nerd I am. Awesome. :)


In all seriousness, though… Marissa & I have found that we just love leading workshops, and we love tailoring the information to our attendees. If you all want an intensive lesson on the basics of Photoshop – we’ll do it. If most of the attendees are experts in PS, however, I am more than happy to delve into another topic, such as album design – or editing video – or creating a website with Showit. We want our workshop to be beneficial to you, so we definitely want to tailor it to fit your needs. Looking forward to meeting everyone at the San Diego workshop next week! See you soon!

I made this little video for our DWF presentation, so that we could share a glimpse of Marissa’s beautiful baby… she & Weston and the rest of the staff at WC have worked incredibly hard on this place, and it is just such a gorgeous studio. At our Vegas workshop we’ll be giving a ‘virtual tour’ of the studio, with some longer video footage, so that our attendees will be able to see all the details and the whole layout of this 4500 sq-foot studio. For the rest of you, here’s that video, if you’re interested in taking a look! Thanks!

 ***Note about the video & studio… we are not showing this to say that everyone needs a 4500 sq-ft studio to shoot boudoir. You can be JUST as successful doing it other ways. For example, shooting boudoir marathons at hotels. In our book, we explain how we used a garage studio with very simple sets & easy lighting set-ups… and we made it work for our business. There are different ways of doing it; find what works for you!
