Are you a photographer who loves capturing memories for your family?
This workshop will show you how to capture the heart of your family's everyday life, and explore meaningful ways to share and preserve it for future generations.
STARTS: 5th August 2024
Our workshop begins with a personal story from Ali: the discovery of photo albums from the 1890s. These photos contained captions from a great-grandfather never met, which revealed connections and stories that transcended time. They contrasted sharply with another set of family photos, lovely but lacking the depth and context that transform snapshots into stories.
This motivates and inspires Ali to capture moments with powerful narratives, so future generations can understand her family’s story without words.
She's also dedicated to a regular routine of archiving and printing, to ensure her photos are organised, safely preserved, and printed in tangible ways so her family can enjoy them.

Ali Vrbas is a professional photographer passionate about creating a tradition of rich, vivid tales with powerful storytelling images that can be passed down through the generations.
In our live FB group during the workshop you get access to Ali for a full month to ask questions and be guided, but you'll also have the support of other students taking part live!
In week 3, you get to join a live call with Ali to ask her anything on your mind.
Through pdf lessons, BTS shooting videos, gallery walk-throughs and other visual aids, along with her step-by-step guide to designing a photobook, Ali will guide you to become a true memory keeper for your family.
You Also Get:
The role of Memory Keeper involves sharing the images in tangible ways so you (and your Insta followers) are not the only ones getting to enjoy them.
Studies show children who see themselves in photos with their family regularly, develop a strong sense of belonging, and in turn a healthy sense of self esteem.
And while that's important on its own, your images are also a gift for future generations so they can understand their own family history, and your family story.
But we get it. In this digital age we can take thousands of photos a year, so it's natural when it comes to organising them, we get overwhelmed and the task lives in the later basket until our hard drive is one hot mess, and nothing gets edited let alone printed!
In this workshop, Ali's will share her approach for capturing images that have strong narratives, and visually powerful compositions.
She'll also teach you an archiving process you can adopt as a regular routine keep those photos safe, backed up, easy to find, and printed in fun and meaningful ways so your kids - and their kids and grandkids and great grandkids - can enjoy them as family heirlooms to be treasured.
(And no more overwhelm!).

Ali is known for her documentary style captures of her family with eye-catching visuals and strong narratives that give us a good sense of who her family is and what they're about.
She's passionate about her role as her family's memory keeper, and she can't wait to share her entire process, including the archiving system that keeps her photos safe. Plus you'll dive into all the fun ways she prints them so that her children can learn about their family, just as she did as a child thumbing through the albums of long ago relatives.
She's also going to share how she approaches her day-in-the-life documentary sessions for clients, and she'll teach you step-by-step how to design and print a beautiful year-in-the-life photobook for your family.
When you join this workshop lessons and videos will be released weekly, with BTS shooting videos, examples, explanations, and other visual guides... and most importantly hands-on challenges to get out and shoot.
Best of all you'll be part of an online group working through the lessons together, with instructor support from Ali and the group... to share your images, ask questions, and be inspired by your Click Love Grow community.
Will this teach me camera settings and how to shoot in manual mode?
While we will talk about the best settings specific to the different shots Ali will share with you, it won't cover the step-by-step for how the elements of the exposure triangle work together or how to shoot confidently in manual mode. If you're not there yet, check out our Enthusiast Photography Course.

Will I receive 1:1 feedback on my photos?
Unlike our Enthusiast and Advanced Photography Courses, there is no set format for weekly feedback or 1:1 critiquing on your images. However Ali will be active in the group to comment on images, to support you, provide guidance and answer questions along the way.

Hi, I'm Ali. I'm a lifestyle photographer in the Seattle area specializing in newborn, maternity, and family photo sessions with a real life spin.
I live in the Pacific North Western, raising my two kids (11&7) amongst the shores of the Puget Sound and the tall foggy forests nearby.
My past life as an elementary school educator equipped me with the ability to engage young children and families effortlessly during photo sessions.
Thanks to Click Love Grow I traded that calling for photography, running Sound Roots Photography.
I treasure documenting life and preserving fleeting moments before they fade from our memories. With each photograph I aim to tell the tales of life's journey, especially owning the job of memory keeper, family documentarian, and visual storyteller.
