The Imagine Conference will help you take your business to the next level. You are going to meet some of your new
Industry Besties at this conference! Because, why go through the murky waters of self-employment alone?
Classes begin on Tues, Wed, and Thurs mornings with all your Imagine instructors.
We will wrap up classes and shooting on Thursday with closing casual dinner plans... at approximately 7:30-8pm.
You will want to fly out late late on Thursday on Friday Morning June 7th, 2019.
The conference will be held at two fabulous locations:
-
5 EAST Event Center is a historic old storefront building in the quaint small town of Mooresville. The building that houses 5east was once a hardware store and is now a chic industrial space full of character and texture! With it's original hardwood floors, original brick walls and 20-foot ceilings, it is a perfect and dreamy backdrop for a photographers convention.
-
Marci and Christy's MAC Studio Backlot has been dubbed as a "Disneyland" for photographers. Hands-on education with a variety of our head to toe styled models, and portfolio build to your heart's desire. You can see a variety of set designs and get your to-do list started with a bang!
If you are looking for some direction and help with posing, composition, using natural light/OCF and how to work on set with your senior clients, business, marketing then this is perfect for you!
If you are looking for more of a hands-off approach and want to shoot on your own with senior models, network with other photographers and have a GREAT time, then this is also for you!

Testimonials

"This workshop was so great, that when it came around for the second time, I was the first to sign up! True story. I don’t know how Marci and Christy do it, but in 3 days, you just feel like family. For either beginners just starting their business, or for those that have been doing this for years, it’s the most comfortable, low pressure environment in which to learn. Everybody helps everybody. Everyone gets along, and everyone leaves with at least 20 new friends. Sure, the teaching is spectacular! You learn so much. But the best part by far is the comradely you share with fellow photographers. It’s an absolute must if you want to take your business places you never thought possible."

This workshop was AMAZING!! I learned so much that I’ve already been able to incorporate into my Senior Photography. There is still more to add over the next year. I’ve already seen an increase in my senior sessions. The most incredible thing is, that wasn’t even the best part! The best part was meeting everyone and developing a group that is willing to share and support each other. That is priceless!! Looking forward to June, cause I’m grabbing my spot the minute it’s announced!!

I've operated a full time portrait studio for 23 years now. It can be a challenge to stay relevant to our client base, especially seniors. I admired M&C from afar by social media for quite sometime. After getting a sample of them at SYNC, I knew I needed to see their operation in person. Imagine offered that and more. Not only did I get the chance to see and hear how they've kept on top of their senior market. But, I was also able to ask them any question of the course of the multi day workshop. My preferred method for education is to go to an instructors studio and see them in their environment. The Imagine workshop early ranks among the best education opportunities I've experienced. Wether you're a seasoned pro or new to your market, you will not regret attending this event.
