The shooting and editing videos are a valuable glimpse into her thought process. I really enjoy how she utilizes the same space with different types of light and concepts. There is a wealth of information that I will most likely revisit and I have already signed up for Jyo’s other course offerings now so I can continue to push myself creatively! Thank you, Jyo!

Jyo is such a constant inspiration for me. This class is filled with walk through videos and behind the scenes that really let you into her artistic vision and help you to see the light and shadows for yourself!! Such a great class.

I cannot believe how many aha moments I had watching Jyo’s shooting and editing videos. It helped me so much to hear her thought process in real time while she was shooting and editing. Thank you, Jyo, for being such an amazing teacher and a creative inspiration. I’m really excited to use your techniques in my own work!

So much thought has gone into these videos and I found them absolutely jam-packed with ideas for creative shooting and for challenging myself in terms of light use. I’ve been shooting now for many years and can’t recommend this class highly enough not only for the new shooter, but also for the advanced photographer aiming to push themselves further in terms of creativity.

Jyo is a wonderful instructor who really goes above and beyond with sharing her process and providing a plethora of materials to facilitate your learning experience. I really appreciated all of the video content in this one, particularly. Thanks so much for creating a wonderful course, Jyo!

I really appreciate the behind the scenes and hearing her discuss her own work in the videos.

She is an amazing educator who thoughtfully explains how both light and shadow create mood and emotion and enhance storytelling. The videos are the perfect length and are easily digestible. Jyo has obviously poured her heart into this course!

Hey there Vanessa! Thankyou so much! The ass is available for purchase for $25 during the live run, for two weeks (where I’ll be there to help with any questions and a Q/A event) and then available later in the Click and co store for purchase for $40. It is a self paced course which means you can access and study the materials on your own time! Hope to see you there in the classroom soon :)
