It's that time agaaaaaaain!:) After the super-duper fun LYON-SHOP we did in Las Vegas on March 6th, we have been super anxious to announce another one!!! Grab the seats while they're still hot to grab! Come spend a crazy day on May 18th in Santa Ana, CA with Justin & I learning all you can about how we do what we do! See the details below. Also, I've included a recap on the Las Vegas workshop below as well, so keep scrolling down.
One of the coolest parts about the penthouse suite is that it was up super high and it had a spa on balcony!
We had our beautiful friends Mark Brooke & Candice Brooke model for us. We were also able to get a fun wedding dress from Allyse's Bridal there in Las Vegas, I fell immediately in love with this particular style that Candice is wearing below.
Our first shoot of the day covered: interacting with you client, posing, creative use of available light, and the use of different lenses.
I MUST give a huge shout-out to Lyndzee of Lady Vintique for making the most amazing head pieces and accessories to complete Candice & Mark's look for our shoots that day!
We had the funnest group of people out that day, thank you to all of the attendees for coming out to learn from us, we feel super blessed to have had such a great day with all of you!
Our second shoot covered: more creative posing, off camera lighting, and working with your surrounding environments.

Last week Justin and I had a BLAST with all of our LYON-SHOP attendees at The Shade Hotel in Manhattan Beach, California! This was a fun group and the day went by so fast with so much to say, teach, show, and shoot! At the end of the day we felt super grateful to everyone who took time out of their busy lives to come and learn from us. We hope that those in attendance were able to take back something from our LYON-SHOP to better their photography business/techniques and ultimately become successful!
We held two shoots that day, the first shoot concentrated on working with and posing your client, use of available light, and use of certain lenses for certain situations.
After the first shoot was over we went through post processing, workflow, how to create actions, blogging, and marketing. The second shoot was definitely my favorite part of the day. We demonstrated how to capture lens-flare, off camera lighting, multiply off camera lighting set ups, reviewed camera settings, and more posing.
Here are all of the attendees, a special thank you goes out to all of them for a very successful day!
Here are some shots that a few of our attendees sent to us of behind the scenes. This first set comes from Quincy of Rock The Image, I especially love what he wrote about the LYON-SHOP on his blog, so be sure to stop by there:
This next set comes from the fab duo team of Paco + Betty from San Francisco:
We also don't want to forget our amazing sponsors for helping us make the LYON-SHOP possible:
