WORKSHOP DETAILS

"The Lauren Fair workshop was truly a luxury experience! From dream vendor teams to lavish styled shoots and exquisite locations, Lauren’s workshops are a once in a lifetime experience! (Or twice if you’re lucky enough!) The entire week was seamless, even with a last minute change of plans due to weather. The teaching content is incredibly valuable and the styled shoots are above and beyond. But by far the best part of the workshop is the intimacy of the group and the personal attention that Lauren gives to each person who attends! Her workshop is one of the best investments I've ever made!"
- Courtney Dueppengeisser Photography

“I recently attended the Lauren Fair Workshop, and am completely blown away at my experience! I have attended multiple workshops in the past and can say that this one has been the best hands down. Lauren is caring and kind and the information she gives is invaluable. They touched on every subject from email replies, websites, attracting the right clients, posing, pricing, film, and so much more! I cannot wait to implement everything I've learned. The classroom portion in itself was so worth it to me, but to top it all off we had the most insanely beautiful styled shoot afterward which is going to be such a beautiful addition to my portfolio. Lauren took us through each portion of the shoot and gave us information on her camera settings and how she directs her couples and it was awesome to see her in action! I am so happy and grateful that I attended her workshop and wish I could go to them all! If you are on the fence about attending a Lauren Fair Workshop, my advice to you is to just do it! You won't be disappointed!"
~Rebecca Theresa Photography

“Life CHANGER! Attending a Lauren Fair Workshop was by far the BEST decision I made for not only my photography business, but also for myself. You can watch as many YouTube videos on photography as you want... but what it comes down to is actual real-life, hands-on experience in the photography world by someone that inspires you. That is exactly why I decided to attend a Lauren Fair Workshop. I walked away feeling like I could conquer all the DREAMS I had set for myself and I also walked away feeling so much more confident in myself. Lauren truly puts her heart and soul into her workshops leaving her attendees with an experience that you just can’t experience from anyone else in the industry. Lauren is one of the most humble, inspiring, kindest people I have ever met and she is someone you want to surround yourself with because she gives so much joy and love to everyone around her. Words can’t describe how fast my business transformed after attending the European Inspired Autumn Workshop. If you’re ready to take your business to the next level that you’ve always dreamed of, look no further, just attend one of Lauren’s workshops and I promise you will never be happier.”
