A curated, two-part portfolio experience designed to elevate your work, build confidence, and give you real content you’re proud to show.
What This Is:
This is not a camera lesson.
This is a fully styled, pre-organised maternity shoot experience where everything is done for you - so you can show up and just start creating.
No stress. No pressure. No expectations. Just a space to practice, explore, and grow.
Why This Matters:
If you’re starting out or refining you style, this is where most photographers get stuck:
You want to book clients…. But you don’t have a portfolio to confidently charge.
And the truth is:
You shouldn’t be charging for work you haven’t had the opportunity to refine.
This workshop is created to bridge that gap.
What You’ll Experience:
Part 1 - Studio Session
2:00pm - 3:00pm (4/26 Knight St, Park Avenue) Creative Lens Co. Studio
Professionally styled maternity model + some partner opportunities
Curated studio setup
Natural lighting with soft-boxes (beginner friendly)
Free flow posing (model will move through poses - so you can focus on your camera and what you’re creating)
Part 2 - Cooee Bay Beach Session
4:15pm - 5:15pm Cooee Bay Beach
Natural light & sunset
Movement, flow, storytelling poses
Real-world location shooting experience
Professionally styled maternity model + some partner opportunities
Designed For You If:
You’re building a portfolio from scratch
You want to transition into paid maternity work
You need content that reflects your vision
You want to practise manual shooting without pressure
You’re tired of guessing and want real experience
“Why would I pay when I can just do a model call?”
Valid question - and here’s the reality:
Model calls require:
Time sourcing models
Back-and-forth communication
Organising outfits and styling advice
Coordinating locations
Hiring a studio (which alone can cost the same as this ticket)
And most importantly:
You cannot charge for model calls.
This is a mistake we are seeing more and more in the industry - and it damages your credibility long-term. Discounted sessions for portfolio building is okay but…
Model calls should be:
TFP (time for print)
Or paid to the model
We’ve been there. We’ve learnt the hard way.
This workshop removes all of that - and gives you a professional, ready-to-shoot experience without the chaos.
What You Get:
Access to 2 styled maternity sessions
Studio + Outdoor experience
A professionally presented maternity model
Content ready to help you elevate your portfolio
A zero-pressure environment to create freely
The Energy of This Day:
This isn’t competitive.
This isn’t overwhelming.
This isn’t performative.
It’s:
Calm
Supportive
Creative
Intentional
A space where you can learn by doing - without the weight of client expectations.
