The focus will be on developing your artistic instincts, understanding how light shapes a scene, guides the eye, and creates emotional impact, and then turning that understanding into clear, repeatable decisions you can carry into future projects.

Choosing Your Program
For this mentorship, you can choose from our four-session Gold program or eight-session Diamond program.
We generally recommend our Diamond program for complex, highly detailed projects that require more time, guidance, and meticulous work. Our Gold program is best suited for smaller, less-complex projects that can be completed on a shorter timeline.
If you are unsure which program would be best for you, reach out to us at contact us and we can provide you with a recommendation
