WORKSHOPS AND MENTORSHIPS
2:1 or 1:1 Newborn Workshops
Bring your newborn photography to the next level with a unique newborn workshop with Erica, the owner and CEO of Roses & Grace Photography.
Newborn photography requires unique and complex skills, above and beyond standard camera expertise. Successfully working with babies requires mastering the skills of baby soothing, newborn safety, technical posing elements, session flow and more.
Strengthening your abilities in these foundational areas of newborn photography will allow you to open the door to endless creativity and individuality in your newborn work.
Let us help you build this foundation and bring your newborn art to the next level.
I have nearly a decade of professional photography experience, and newborn photography is my favorite niche. Pursuing my passion, I’ve studied under the industry’s top newborn photographers and traveled the country to work with the best of the best. For six years, I’ve trained newborn photographers by taking the knowledge I’ve gained from other experts, applying my own creativity, and always continuing to perfect my craft.
Our newborn workshop is for photographers who are serious about improving their newborn work. Content will include:
- Session Planning and Design
- Lighting

What previous students said about their experience:
"The workshop was exactly what my business needed! Not only did I learn a ton about newborn photography from the hands-on and model babies, but I got right to work creating a more profitable and successful business based on all your suggestions. My first real sale after the workshop paid for the workshop - plus some! I had so much fun I want to take the workshop again. Thank you, Erica, for everything."
"I enjoyed doing the workshop and mentorship! Stating out with the business stuff followed by taking us through what you actually do on shoot day was perfect. Taking your workshop gave me the push I needed to really kick my business off!"
We'd love the chance to do this and more for YOUR business.
