A message from Kailey Sedlacek (Creative Director of Styling) & Thomas Sanders (Operations Director):
Welcome back, TFN! To kick this semester off, we will be introducing Posing Workshops!! These will be events where models and aspiring models can learn posing techniques, photoshoot etiquette, and the most important skill of all: confidence! Models must attend workshops in order to be chosen for a shoot, as each workshop will include theme-specific activities that will be important for the shoot itself! The first workshop will be held at the SCD lower lobby on the 16th from 5-7 PM by Kailey and Thomas! We cannot wait to see all of your beautiful faces!
