Your initial training begins with a week of intensive classroom and hands-on training at our training and support center. We'll teach you everything from operations and execution to the technical aspects of your on-location events business. During week two, your training will focus on real-world training in studio operations, boutique-style photography, studio software systems, and portrait studio sales, plus marketing and advertising.
