Course
PHOTOGRAPHY + STYLING + BRANDING
I’ve known Eva for years now and was lucky enough to learn from her through course and workshop! She truly is a wonderful and caring teacher. The detailed course, her generosity, and teaching skills have helped me make leaps and bounds in my images.
Eva's course is incredibly in-depth—not only for all the knowledge she shares through her detailed and amazing videos, but also for all the extra materials and resources she offers. She does not keep any secrets to herself. If you apply everything you learn in the course, you will definitely improve and see incredible results in your work.
Learning with Eva has been the best decision I've made! She's a wonderful teacher and human being.
This course has been one of the best investments for me. It was a lot for me to invest but I took the leap and I couldn’t be happier! To learn things like textural contrast, showing multiple food stories with a simple fruit like orange, using fabric in the right way, and all of it using natural lighting is just fantastic. The entire program has been a GREAT source of learning. I still go back to the course when I feel stuck. Above it all, I’ve been able to connect with Eva and it’s just wonderful how she readily helps whenever I need it.

Cinemagraphs *consistently* give me the best engagement on social media, and I can’t recommend making them highly enough. The motion they capture allows you to create a sense of presence + reality within the frame. Plus, the fact that you can also edit the photo aspect of the image in Lightroom, means that you can easily create a video that is completely in line with your overall visual style. It’s an incredible method for creative storytelling, and an awesome tool to use for growing on social media.

When I look back at my earlier photos, I kinda cringe but I’m also thrilled with how far my work and aesthetic has evolved. I credit Eva’s course with playing a huge role in that development! Her course helped me to better understand the use of props, lighting, and thoughtful staging to create a particular mood and natural-looking presentation where every element has a true purpose for being present in the scene. Through Eva’s course, I learned to manipulate light and use specific equipment and editing techniques to help me tell the visual food stories that I always wanted to express through my photography, but often had trouble achieving.
I love that Eva’s course is broken down into easily digestible sections that are designed to demystify food photography. I’ve always been drawn to Eva’s beautiful signature photography and this course not only brims with her trademark creativity but also provides an easy-to-follow roadmap on how to build upon the skills learned to not only improve today but continue to elevate and hone skills beyond the coursework. If you want to improve your images and get busy creating your own mouth-watering pictures of food, I whole-heartedly recommend this course—it’s been a game changer for me!"

"This course helped me give my food photography business a big boost. All the topics I can think of are covered in this course. I love the fact that you can approach the material in a manageable way, at your own pace. I especially enjoyed watching the videos. Eva is such a wonderful teacher. She explains all topics in an inspiring, professional and calm way.
I paused the videos when I wanted to take notes, or whenever I get so excited to start and implement the tips & tricks right away. The course is a real treasure and investment for any food photographer: beginner or experienced. I assure you, you’ll learn something new that generates business or inspiration. Eva thank you so much for sharing all your thoughts, skills and experiences!"
"I can honestly say that taking courses from Eva was just so lovely. I have taken courses with two other online mentors. One only answered 4-5 questions that were put into messages and mostly chatted with her assistant during the Q & A….. filling time…You couldn’t ask any live questions, it was horrible, I left the call feeling taken for the course. Eva has been the opposite — *really* taking the time to thoroughly answer questions and not rush everyone---and help people at whatever level of expertise they are at. She meets you where you are so sincerely!"
"Not only are the courses super approachable and inspiring, Eva is one of the most encouraging and supportive teachers I've ever had the pleasure of knowing."
"One of the best decisions I've made in my photography career was to sign up for one of Eva's courses. Not only are the courses super approachable and inspiring, Eva is one of the most encouraging and supportive teachers I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. That support and encouragement has been vital to my own growth and confidence as a photographer. If you're on the fence about signing up for one of her courses, I highly recommend taking the leap and going for it!"
go for it!
"Taking one of Eva's courses was a major turning point in building my own successful career as an artist."
"Taking one of Eva's courses was a major turning point in building my own successful career as an artist. She explained technicalities in an approachable way and then how to apply those elements in a real life way to my work. Afterwards I was able to not only consistently produce quality images, but use that knowledge to shape my own personal style. I wasn't a beginner by any means coming into her course, but her teaching style made things 'click' in a way they never had previously. I would recommend her as an instructor to anyone looking to further their skills and confidence as a creator."
"I took Eva’s Photography + Styling + Branding Course in September 2020...That decision was a game changer for me!"
"I took Eva’s Photography + Styling + Branding Course in September 2020 because I was mesmerized by her photography and wanted to learn her craft from her. That decision was a game changer for me!
The course took me deep into the basics first, getting more advanced as I progressed. Right from understanding your camera and its settings, to learning about light and how to work with it to create the mood you want to portray, to styling with a purpose, the meaningful use of props, to advanced storytelling and finally, to editing your images to bring them to life, the course is super comprehensive and broken down into easily manageable modules.
what my PAST students have to say. . .
You have lifetime access to the course, so I never felt rushed to complete it. Eva is by far the best teacher you can have! She is extremely kind, approachable, intuitive and knowledgeable, and selflessly imparts that knowledge to you. She patiently addressed all of our queries on the photo course's monthly zoom calls. You can see how my work has evolved, thanks to Eva! I would highly recommend her as a teacher."
After college, I started shooting digital and fell completely in love with the capabilities of DSLR cameras. I've seen trends come and go, technology change, and have been there since the birth of social media (WILD times!)
I'm an enneagram type 2 wing 3, 'The Hostess' (which means I love helping + nurturing others), I have a moderate houseplant-collecting compulsion, I love gardening, my husband, my dogs, my chickens, and my cat, my mother + sister + brother are teachers, and I love bodies of water but can't swim.
