About the Newborn Photography Course
Newborn photography and working with tiny brand-new humans can easily become overwhelming and intimidating for beginners and even for some intermediate photographers too. This workshop will help you understand all the key elements needed, as well as tips and tricks you should know to successfully create beautiful images that you and your clients will love and treasure.
I attended the Newborn Photography class and it was AWESOME! The facilitator Robyn is AMAZING, so passionate and knowledgeable. The course is a perfect combo of theory and the most AMAZING practical on little babes. Jenna was the perfect host as well.
I’m loving this journey and hope you guys will too!!!
