Mary's Session Based approach to working with models is a proven formula for producing amazing images that models and agencies love. Mary has designed this workshop to pass this information along to those who really want to step up and create better work. To attend you have to want a great challenge, and if you do, hold on... the time you spend with Mary will blow you away.

This very unique workshop is designed for amateur, emerging, and established professional photographers who are looking for the challenge and individuality of the next level of their craft.

A Word from Mary,
After having hundreds of requests to share my secrets of model posing control, communication, model direction, and styling, I have decided to make it all happen in this one special program: I now work with only four attendees up close and very personal. Those who attend will have knowledge presented in a format that goes beyond workshops, this is real time session work - my session work. I am excited to share the skills that I have developed over the years but also have elected to do so on my terms... this isn't going to be "just another workshop!"  I wanted to design and organize a program that would be unlike anything before and true to my beliefs and quality standards throughout. Anyone who attends my workshop will walk away a much better photographer, a more inventive creative, and an artist with a new style information base.                            Mary DuPrie

 

 

Forgive this rant but I wanted to take a moment and let all your site visitors know what an INCREDIBLE experience your workshop was this weekend. It was truly an honor to be a part of it. The years of knowledge not only in Photoshop and photography imparted upon EACH student but also the posing and composition and lighting and set design. I honestly felt that after even the 1st day, I had gotten my money's worth!!! And we still had 2 days left!!! We ALL left energized and excited and ready to try all that we learned. ALL photographers WILL benefit greatly just by being there. My sincerest thanks again!   Rolly

I just wanted to say how happy I have been with the workshop. Without a doubt it's has been the best one that I have ever attended. I think you and Robert complement each other in such a good way that one cannot help but come away from this being a better photographer. I just want to say Thank You Thank you Thank you. I hope to practice,implement, and  grow from this experience. Thanks for putting on a workshop that really taught and not just put on a show.   Jorge D.
I just wanted to give you a big "THANK YOU!" for putting on such a great workshop.  I knew I could count on you and Robert to deliver the goods.   Alex S.

Thank you for such an enlightening weekend. It rejuvenated me and made me remember why I do what I do. You created a very inviting atmosphere. Positive, comfortable, relaxed, but hardworking and creative. It's hard to put it in words, really. Not often enough do I walk away from something and think, "WOW, what a great experience" as I did with this workshop.

Your skills and professionalism shine through in your work and your passion and enthusiasm for photography is evident. After spending time with you, I can't help but be inspired and motivated to identify my new goals and work towards them.   David T.
