The WTF Luxury Real Estate Photography Workshop
Three instructors. One luxury property. A new way of seeing your work.
Wayne Capili, Tony Colangelo, and Fraser Almeida bring decades of combined experience shooting luxury properties. Six years ago they started teaching this workshop together, refining and improving it each year. This year is no different.
Three instructors means three distinct perspectives, and the opportunity to build a deeper collection of skills you can make your own.
Capture portfolio-worthy images.
This isn't a demo you watch. It's structured instruction combined with hours of guided, hands-on shoot time inside a genuine luxury property, with your own gear, your own instincts, and Wayne, Tony, and Fraser in the room, each bringing their own eye to what you're making. You'll leave with new portfolio images ready for your website galleries, the kind that open doors to the luxury clients you want.
The shoot day also includes twilight photography, and the chance to create the kind of images that turn strong portfolios into exceptional ones.
The learning continues.
Once you're home from the conference and you've had time to sit with what you shot and what you experienced, Wayne, Tony, and Fraser bring the group back together on Zoom for a focused follow-up session covering three things vital to securing more luxury work:
What luxury real estate offers.
Luxury real estate photography expands what's possible: additional revenue streams, a broader client base, and rates that reflect the expertise required to shoot atthis level. For many, the leap to luxury is worth it. We'd love to have you with us.
