“Wow, what an amazing course. I am a new photographer to family portraiture who has struggled with posing. I tried to memorize poses but obviously when working with different numbers of people that did not work out too well. Michele breaks it all down starting at the basics and building up. This course has given me so much confidence with my clients’. And my images are absolutely beautiful. I’m so glad I found this course! Thank you, Michele.”

“Amazing course, very detail and love she reinforces the information with each video. What was the video camera on top of the camera that she was using as a viewfinder? would love to use it on my sessions- was also great to see exactly what Michelle was seeing and how she was perfecting the poses- Thank you Michele!”

“I LOVE the way Michele breaks down the fundamentals of posing groups and families. She explains why we prefer certain images over others, and I could never pinpoint this before. I have been shooting weddings for years and getting by on experience but never taken the time to learn how to pose groups. This will take my posing for family portrait sessions to the next level!”
