Embrace Workshop was simply amazing. Unlike any other photography workshop I have attended, this was a complete experience! Andre’s knowledge and willingness to share is incredible which is why he is well respected, has many connections, and was able to put together a workshop like no other.
Day 1 consisted of intimate discussions on Marketing, Pricing, SEO, workflows, a panel of speakers from well-known photography magazines, and so much more of the business side of things.
Day 2… wow! Included a complete reception setup, beautiful models with couture attire, accessories, etc. The location and level of detail was break-taking! I was so inspired and excited to utilize what I learned from the Embrace Workshop within my business! This hands-on experience is one that you do not want to miss!

The Embrace Workshop was life changing. I was literally ready to give up and go back to a 9 to 5. Attending the workshop changed all of that. I appreciate Andre for opening up and sharing his story. It allowed me to not only see the business from a different perspective, but I was able to see a different perspective on the creative side and identify what was holding me back. I walked away from the workshop confident, motivated an inspired. I now possess the knowledge, the focus and fury to go after what I want and be unapologetic about it. Just weeks after attending the workshop, I booked a $5,000 wedding. I did that with the tools Andre Brown gave me and since then, the results just got better and better. Today I’m still full time in photography and video and this time around, I’m stress free and hungry for more.

André was a great teacher and speaker during his Embrace Wedding Workshop. His information and advice on the business of wedding photography was very thorough and informative. The workshop provided great examples, activities, speakers, and interactive assignments. I would definitely recommend and participate in an Embrace workshop again.
