Great news! I recently was invited to join award-winning photographer Andy Armstrong as a special guest speaker on his Austin Texas leg of his “Grind” tour that travels across the country. I was extremely flattered by the invitation and can’t wait to visit the big state of Texas and hang out with such a talented individual and good friend. Andy is also creator of Design House, a rockin, must have tool kit for photographers packed full of cool design elements that I use all the time.

Workshop Description:
The market for Glamour and Boudoir Photography is growing every day. Don’t fall behind the curve. Learn how you can tap into this market and create images that wow your clients and lead to bigger sales.
The Grind: Austin is an intensive two-day photography and post-processing workshop that will focus on Fashion, Glamour, and Boudoir photography.
Join three-time international award-winning photographer and creator of Design House, Andy Armstrong as he teaches and demonstrates interpersonal interaction, shoot strategy, pose flow, and how to get through the “grind” of creating image after image that make mouths and wallets fall open.
“This is going to be a fun, but serious workshop, folks. I’m searching for the best models Austin has to offer, and I’m going to show you exactly how I do glamour photography. From approaching potential models that build your portfolio to the first interaction in the studio – from building a model’s confidence to making her feel ’sexy’ without being intrusive – from finding the light to getting the very best poses – and much, much more. I’m going to show you exactly how I find, shoot, and succeed with this genre of photography.” – Andy Armstrong
The Grind: Austin includes:
- Live model shoots
- Posing demonstration and instruction
- Lighting demonstration and instruction
- How to communicate more effectively
- How to make your clients comfortable
- Hands-on coaching
- When and how to break the rules

So you don’t shoot fashion, glamour, or boudoir? Don’t worry. Everything (from pose and communication to post processing) you’ll learn at this workshop will translate easily into every aspect of your photography, whether it’s weddings, kids, or families. You’ll walk away fired up and ready to take on the world.
And, since everything’s bigger and better in Texas…
