About Me

A lifelong Passion

Photography has been my passion since I was able to use a (digital) camera. I started taking pictures of flowers and my cats, in and around the garden. Soon after, I started using my sister as a model. We styled her in the most outrageous outfits and applied crazy make-up. It ignited something in me.

Kirstin (online course student)

Highly recommend it!

The two-light masterclass was incredibly thorough and demystified so many different aspects of studio lighting. I could fill pages honestly!! I thought the course was so so so so good, everything was broken down really well and easy to understand, and I only have two softboxes and really cheap bulbs, but I still felt the course had a lot of applicable information (and tonssss of inspiration and motivation to shoot more). I hope more people catch on, honestly I’ve looked at other online lighting courses and they were nowhere near as good!!
