Build a portfolio that books
If your work is “good”… but it’s not luxury yet — this is your bridge. Lab 35mm is where you learn how to create magazine-worthy, cinematic wedding images using a simple, repeatable formula:
Lighting. Direction. Storytelling.
Not “buy more gear and hope.” Not “copy Pinterest and call it style.” You become the director.
And your portfolio starts booking the rooms you actually want to walk into.

Weddings
Without trend-chasing, praying for good light, or turning your couples into mannequins.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF YOU'VE EVER SAID…
“I want my work to feel more high-end… I just don’t know how to get there.”
“Flash overwhelms me, so I avoid it.” (Or slap it on TTL and cross your fingers.)
“My couples look stiff when I pose them… but if I don’t pose them, it’s chaos.”
“My galleries feel inconsistent. Like different photographers shot them.”
“I want cinematic storytelling… but I can’t seem to recreate what I see in my head.”
it's time to elevate your portfolio
This self-paced course includes three easily-implementable modules that add up to a big change in the way that you view cinematic storytelling, timeless creation, and light & direction. When you are finished with Lab 35mm, you will be able to confidently offer clients the one-of-a-kind experience of moment-driven, fine art inspired photography.

I’ve been there and done that in two years flat.
“Whenever I needed inspiration, I would go on Pinterest and look at other photographers.
Alora taught me that you should be seeking inspiration from other mediums of art. My mind was blown! I can't even imagine where my business is going to go."

I have been playing around at my recent weddings with more editorial lighting & composition! I use to shoot very "safe", I guess you could say, this has been fueling my creativity!

So, are you ready to level up your business and attract the high-end clients you’ve been
No more late-night Google searches, no more binge-ing Youtube videos looking for answers. The one course you need to elevate your portfolio with print-worthy photos is waiting for you.
You’ve been practicing, absorbing all of the free resources, and still not seeing the results you want. Now it’s time to take decisive action towards your dreams.
Dreaming Of?
This *is* for you if:
You want a straight no-nonsense approach to photographing editorial weddings with ease
You want to create a mixture of magazine meets the unposed imagery
You’re ready to understand how to create images that are effortlessly gorgeous & master any lighting scenario
You like your business the way it is now and aren’t looking for honesty
You like a certain style of images and limit yourself to that style only
It's probably *not* for you if...
You aren’t ready for the next level as the photographer & creative director on the wedding day
"I don't think I'll ever be able to thank you enough for this course."
“I knew what I wanted my photos to be, I just didn't know how to get there. The sections are short, sweet, and to the point. I have already practiced what I learned and set up styled shoots to get more practice in.”
-Courtney
FREQUENTLY ASKED
How do I know if this is for me? Am I really ready?
YES, YOU ARE READY! If you made it this far, then this is something you not only want to do but, NEED to do. Success is always on the other side of fear. Did you read this whole page up and down, and agree with 50% of it? Then this is for you. See you in the course!
Do I have enough time to commit to the course?
The three modules are completed on your own time and will be dripped module by module over the course of each week into the program (as to not overwhelm). And because you have a mobile app to the course, you can dive in whenever you need the education on the go.
What if I can't understand all the tech & terms?
Listen, I get it. All the bros of the photography world make things soooo complicated. I have condensed and simplified only the most important things you need (a flash to start) and eliminated everything you don't. Trust me, as an enneagram 3, we don't have time for fluff.
What is the refund policy?
There aren't any refunds on this course -as we only want the most committed people who are willing to do the work. If you’re willing to do the work, you’ll be able to earn back everything you invest up to five times what you paid for this program.
