These images were the result of Jill La Fleur's Photography Workshop in May, 2011. Tiffany Emch of Ojai Valley Inn & Spa was a gracious hostess for the workshop. Well known for their heavenly spa, the historic resort offers world class service in a setting of understated elegance. Various wedding venues are tucked away throughout the property, including the herb garden portrayed in these images.
Featured speakers included Jill, photographer Jose Villa, Abby Larson of Style Me Pretty, and Robyn and Halii I'aea of Pacific Weddings, each of whom gave insight on how to get published. Also featured, Joel Serrato of Joel Serrato Films, Ceci Johnson of Ceci New York and Brian Greenburg of Richard's Photo Lab, gave their expert advice on branding and building a successful photography business.
