come and join us..






Waaaaaaaaaaah! We are now SOLD OUT for our London workshop in October but still have places available in MANCHESTER on TUESDAY 8TH OCTOBER so if you want to come join us then book your place quick!

Welcome Home has become so much more than just a workshop.. it's a great big gorgeous family and we want others to have the opportunity to be involved in this growing community too.. :)

So what is the workshop about?

The Welcome Home Workshop will focus on developing your artistic voice, finding your niche market, understanding and developing your brand, valuing the client experience, managing expectations and staying inspired.

Within these topics I will also be covering...
- My artistic Style
- Attracting your ideal client
- Understanding your 'why'
- Marketing
- Shooting
- Post Processing
- Pricing
- Workflow
- Client relationships and experience

To have a little look at some of the workshops that have been before have a look HERE... and HERE!

But it's not just about what you experience on the day.  Welcome Home has become a strong community of supportive photographers who share advice and experiences... they second shoot for each other and are even shooting each other's weddings.  I'm proud to be a part of such a wonderfully supportive and positive bunch of mo fos.. 

So if you decide to come along.. Welcome Home also gives you..
  • Immediate access to the Facebook group
We now have a total of 70 homies in the group.  They chat every day asking questions and offering each other advice and have been on hand for each other whether that's a pricing issue or needing to borrow kit for a wedding... oh and they also like a good laugh and a good dance.. :)
This 2 day retreat was born out of the homies wanting to get together.. especially as many of them attended different workshops but felt like they knew each other from the FB group.  So in April it was Welcome Break time!  We headed to a wonderful farm in Warwick and slept in Yurts and teepees.. ate good food, played rounders, danced and did the conga.. and then hated it when we had to leave.  It was better than we ever could have imagined and we can't wait for the next one!
  • Exclusive opportunities for one to one mentoring sessions
Starting in 2014 I will be offering homies one to one mentoring sessions as part of Welcome Home.  After the workshop it's always incredible to watch attendees build, develop and make changes to their businesses and I think a natural progression is to spend some time looking at the effect of these changes.. what's working.. what maybe isn't working so well.. and why.  These sessions will be tailored to you and will be offered exclusively to attendees of Welcome Home.

Instalments
Both Manchester and London workshops are limited to 15 places.  A few of you have emailed to ask if you can pay in instalments so we wanted to let peeps know that if you'd like to come and join us in MANCHESTER then you can secure your place now with a £200 deposit with the remaining amount due by the 1st October.. :)

If you would like to pay in instalments then please email at info@emmacasephotography.com.  Also if you're worried about where you're at with your business and if the workshop is right for you, then... don't.. :)  Just drop me an email (I promise I don't bite) and we can go from there.. 



Here's a few words from past attendees..

"I'd long been an admirer of Emma's work and her attitude towards wedding photography, and was starting to hit my stride with my own fledgling photography business when she announced she'd be doing workshops. I'd done a handful of photography workshops before but knew this one would have a lot more soul, would probably attract a good, like-minded crowd and would be less 'all about the gear' and more 'all about the love of it'. 
I was at a point where I'd photographed around a dozen weddings and was really enjoying it - but I wanted to find out where I could improve, talk about the business side of things (and check I was doing things right) and get a bit of insight into what sparks Emma's, as well as the other nine Homies', imaginations and creativity. On the day we had an overview of running a photography business, how to improve your own service and clients' experiences; a couples' shoot where Emma explained how she works and how she puts people at ease while she poses them, and a lot of the day was spent brainstorming and learning from each other too, as well as telling stories from our own experiences. By the end of the day we had explored all areas; we'd all laughed, a few of us cried and I walked away with a warm feeling in the pit of my stomach that finally I could feel confident enough to really do my own thing, and that everything would be alright in the end. 10 months on, everyone who has been part of the growing Welcome Home community discusses ideas, opinions and asks each other for help and advice on a daily basis. I've never been so happy to be part of something, and attending the Welcome Home workshop is definitely up there as one of my best business decisions so far. BIG LOVE TO EMMA AND PETE."


"Home to me is where you can be yourself, you can be free and feel loved for who you are and what you are and what you do. This amazing day made me feel so at home in a room full of people I had never met before that felt like family by the end of the day.
Emma you spoke from your heart, we saw your passion, what gives you butterflies.
You made me feel butterflies and the biggest thing for me? you made me realise that it's ok to just be me behind my camera.
Bingo.
There it is.
Welcome Home."

So what are you waiting for????  We would absolutely love to see you there!

NEW Welcome Home Workshop dates!!

So far we've had a total of six Welcome Home Workshops hosting two at our office in Brum and have travelled to Edinburgh, Bristol, London and across the water to Dublin.  We've had a total of 63 homies join us on this crazy adventure and it's been incredible to watch them all grow their own supportive community in the facebook group speaking and offering each other daily support and advice.  Back in April we also had our first Welcome Break.. a two day retreat where 33 of us spent a few days laughing, dancing, eating good food and simply getting back to what's important...

fiona and jonny {wedding}

Fiona and Jonny's wedding was a spectacular affair from start to finish.. but not just because of the beautiful red headed bride or the Tim Burton-esque groom.. not just because of the most incredible Manchester Victoria Baths where we heard promises of love, ate hearty pies and danced the night away.. but for the people.. good, warm, funny, generous people who came together to celebrate the love between two more good, warm, generous people.

The venue was incredible.. a huge statement of wonderful history and Fiona and Jonny on this day made their own history with all their wonderful friends and family.. and we were incredibly honoured to be a part of it..
