Well, We Should Probably be Bffs

Because I’m about to pull back the curtain on ALL. THE. THINGS.

  • Hey, I’m Alisha but
    my friends call me LISH.

    I’ve spent the past 6 years building my business and producing content for some of the world’s largest brands and now I’m sharing the skills and systems I use to make it happen. But before you assume this will be some technical lesson from a professional that goes way over your head, let me take a minute to share my full story.

  • The truth is - I'VE TOTALLY BEEN IN YOUR SHOES

    In the beginning, I didn’t even own a digital camera, let alone know how to use it. I was just an entry-level advertising agency creative with an iPhone and a dream. I took chances, said “yes” and never stopped learning.

  • I’ve made the mistakes and figured out the tricks so that you don’t have to.

    Say goodbye to suffering through the confusion, I’m here to come to your rescue. I’m throwing out a life raft full of all of the info I wish I had when I was first starting my businesses and learning my craft.

LET'S SLAY THE FLATLAY!

THIS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER ONLINE COURSE.

This is a glimpse into my world, an invitation into my studio, a peek below the surface and a completely unfiltered approach to online learning.

  • How is this different from other courses?
  • 01

    Breadth of information - while many courses choose to focus on one area - photography OR lighting, OR styling OR stop-motion…..this one gives you an intro to every single one of those topics and more. We can’t all start out with a huge team to take on these roles. We have to be scrappy, wear many hats and learn how to get by on our own. This course helps you take ownership of all stages of photography production.

    Keeps beginners in mind - I didn’t go to a fancy photography school and so much of the technical information overwhelmed and intimidated me at first. I try to simplify and break things down so that you can learn in a more efficient way than I did. I want to get information to you sooner, so you’re not struggling through the confusion like I did for so long.

I  was a little on the fence because I'm a professional art director and concept shoots for a living...but I  really wanted to learn more about lighting studio setups, tethering and finances...it does not disappoint!

Alexa S.

As a wedding photog trying to transition to shooting content for local businesses, everything has been extremely helpful. I  didn't even know what I  didn't know about commercial photography and I've been a full-time photog for 6 years!

Madison S.

I  loved the course! Super helpful and straight to the point, as usual! I  literally have a queue of courses waiting to be watched, but I  put yours at the top because I  knew it would be something that I  could easily and immediately put to use! 

Rachel K.

"I thought the class was really well put together - a good balance of experience, thoughtful education and examples. I appreciate Alisha’s to the point approach without the unnecessary fluff in-between. I also think a lot was covered, making it a lot of bang for your buck in knowledge, time, and productivity."

Sahily Perez

Slay the Flatlay is such a great course for anyone just starting out in product photography and stop motions. I  love how Alisha goes through all of the planning and shares how she creates shot list. My favorite part is the resource guide though, such great stuff! 

Sara V.

“What I loved is that Alisha got right down to business and there wasn’t a minute wasted on “fluff”. I see so many courses that are filled with what I call “motivational fluff.” The teacher will usually use phrases/words like “find your voice”, “share your light”, and “this is going to be so nourishing for you and your business.” I just like to get past all that stuff and actually learn, and Alisha did that so well!”

Gina Julian

"The course was very complete, from basics to more complex hands-on work. It was more real than other courses I’ve taken - no fancy words or babbling about technicalities, it was more down to the real deal. Overall it was a great course, and I hope to see more in the future from Alisha! Her work is VERY good, and it's great that she can share some of her knowledge with us who are just starting out."

Lya Rosario

"I loved how Alisha took something complex and made it simple & easy to understand with takeaways to empower the listeners."

Brittany Garcia

I’M SO SURE YOU'LL LOVE IT THAT I HAVE A GUARANTEE

You get 30 days to go through the content and if you’re not happy with it, I’ll give you your money back. All I ask is that you send proof that you actually completed the course (notes or screenshots are usually enough) and an
explanation of why it's not working for you.

Testimonials

I'm already a Photographer, will I learn something new?

Even if you already have a handle on the technical side of photography, lighting and editing, I can guarantee that you will learn something new in regards to shoot prep/planning or styling. It’s up to you to decide how much you value additional knowledge in those areas. If you feel proficient or advanced in every area on the outline, the course is probably not the best fit.

Do I need a DSLR camera?

The course is definitely geared towards those who already have or are looking to invest in a DSLR camera, although the shoot planning, styling, natural light and stop-motion sections can be applied to those using an iphone also.

I am a wedding photographer - should I take this course?

If you’re looking to transition into product/commercial photography, or if you’re looking for tactical advice for improving your styling, or incorporating stop-motion into your shoots, this would be a great fit for you. You may want to skip past the DSLR basics, but the rest of the course would have plenty of nuggets of wisdom for you.
