Photography Workshop May 14th | Inside the Creative Process: Fine Art and Commercial Photography

April 01, 2026 in Worskshops

This photography workshop is an immersive deep dive into my fine art and commercial processes, where I’ll walk you through how ideas evolve from inspiration to final image. We’ll explore where I find creative inspiration, how I translate my passions into visual storytelling, and go through the software, lighting patterns, and gear I rely on to bring my vision to life. Beyond practical tips you can immediately apply to your own work, this class is designed to spark deeper inspiration and help you discover your unique voice in photography. Together, we’ll examine how intention and meaning can elevate your images and shape a more fulfilling creative practice. This workshop also includes a hands-on experience giving you images for your portfolio.

Date and Time:

Thursday, May 14, 2026 10:00am - 5:00pm

Location:

1801 E 18th Street, Ste 203, Kansas City, MO 64108

@heykaleb was a dream to work with. Kaleb brought the best energy to set and had the perfect look for this custom hat designed by the very talented, @aminahood.

Thank you to @wildmanvintage and @whatwouldtomforddo for providing the clothing for this
Beauty exists in the space between clarity and distortion.
