Nostalgic Summer Workshop

The Embodied Artist’s newest workshop, Nostalgic Summer Series.

What we will be covering…..

Nostalgic Summer Series

In this heart-led workshop, we’ll explore how to photograph play, movement, and storytelling with intention. You’ll learn how to use natural light creatively, direct with ease in unstructured environments, and capture the feeling of fleeting summer moments with depth and authenticity. We’ll shoot in backyards, wander neighbourhood streets, and embrace spontaneity. From popsicles and sidewalk chalk to golden hour basketball and the quiet in-between moments, it’s all about finding magic in the everyday and learning to see through the lens of nostalgia.

.

Beyond the technical, this workshop invites you to reconnect with your own memories and creative instincts. Through thoughtful conversation, reflection, and shared experiences, we’ll explore what it means to photograph with heart. You’ll leave not just with new skills, but with renewed inspiration, clarity in your artistic voice, and a deeper connection to the stories you want to tell.

details of the workshop:

  • one full-day workshop in Toronto with Scarlet O’Neill X Theresa Ouimet

  • two separate lifestyle sessions throughout the workshop

  • the opportunity to create portfolio content, or use the sessions to truly experiment, or both

  • working hands-on, one-on-one with Scarlet X Theresa during the sessions, where you’ll be encouraged to go deep in creating images, unlike the ones you regularly create.

  • after each session, there will be a review to discuss the pros, cons, and other things that came up during the session so that you can learn how to work through that experience if you ever encounter it again or how to recreate something but go even further or get more creative

  • think of this like your very own coaching session to provide a crash course in shooting in various conditions with various people, but working through any hiccup, being inspired throughout and then walking away with a new sense of self when it comes to photographing in peoples homes during any season, or time of day.

a little bit more:

  • Lunch & dinner are provided, plus other refreshments

  • a gift bag with reminders to keep yourself inspired

  • connecting with other people in the industry
