This month we welcome Marti Newkirk!
When: 6pm-9pm

Boudoir is for ” Every Body”!
Many of our potential customers believe that boudoir photography is only for those with perfect bodies but nothing could be further from the truth. Join Marti as she shares with you how she poses and lights her boudoir customers to showcase their best! This program will cover:
* lighting to bring attention where you want it to be
* posing to flatter your subject with tips to bring out her favorite features
* keep the viewers eyes away from areas she is not so fond of
* how to use competition or camouflage the rest in creative ways
* how to talk with customers to set them at ease during the session
* products I sell most frequently
