I can’t thank Oxana and Ramina enough for creating these courses! As a mom I didn’t want to miss a single moment of my baby’s early days. Their newborn course walked me through everything step by step, and now when I look at my photos, it feels like a professional photographer took them! It’s impossible to book one every single day, and there are just so many moments I don’t want to miss.

I’ve invested in plenty of workshops over the years, but none have been as practical and detailed as these. Oxana’s approach to maternity posing alone was worth it, and Ramina’s newborn techniques gave me so many new ideas I’ve already started using in my studio. What I love most is how easy and fun the courses are to follow while still being packed with tips and knowledge.
-Michael D., New York
These lessons are amazing! I’ve always loved taking photos of my kids, but they never came out the way I hoped. After going through a few of these courses, I finally get how to pose them, find good angles, props, and even use the light in my house without it looking messy. Now the pictures actually look how I imagined, and I didn’t need a fancy camera to do it!
