Sal is an award winning photographer, author, wppi platform speaker, and columnist for Rangefinder magazine.
Sal is one of the most sought after business consultants in our industry, helping studios and photographers take their businesses to the next level.

// All-Day Hands-On Workshops $799 //
In 10 cities, we will be offering a very small indoor/outdoor hands-on workshop with no more than 15 attendees to ensure everyone has a chance to shoot and learn with Sal. Each workshop will be an intense day of learning, shooting, post-production and of course, having fun! Sal has arranged for senior models in each city to allow you to shoot and build your senior portfolio. We will shoot indoors with studio lighting and backdrops and then outside to create a multitude of looks and lighting scenarios.

The workshop will include posing and lighting techniques (including off-camera flash) for various types of sessions – both indoor and outdoor. In addition, Sal will be addressing sales and marketing all day and go in-depth on his very successful “shooting to sell” techniques, which are what drive the high sales averages we see in our studio.
The afternoon will be spent working on post production techniques and learning how to take that image out of camera and turn it into a piece of art for your clients to get that big sale.
This is a great opportunity to work side by side with Sal and learn in a small group environment.
