These workshops offer a unique opportunity to learn firsthand from professionals who have navigated the industry, faced challenges, and mastered their craft. You’ll gain insights that you simply can’t find in books or online tutorials—real-world tips, techniques, and the nuances of working with clients. Furthermore, the interactive environment fosters creativity, allowing you to ask questions, receive immediate feedback, and connect with fellow photographers who share your passion. Investing in your education in this way not only sharpens your skills but also inspires you to push your boundaries and explore new creative horizons.
Hi! I’m Braulio Rocha, a professional wedding photographer for almost 10 years. My journey from being a janitor making minimum salary and living pay check to paychek, to a high in demand wedding photographer has been featured in the New York Times profile article, amongst many other publications easy to find with a quick google search, and I’m proud to be sponsored by industry leaders such as Flashgear.net, EvotoAI, Aftershoot, Pixelu and brand new album design company, Sodesign. These companies have been with me for a while now, because they believe in the power of sharing with the community and the value that our workshops bring to their attendees.
