Hands All Over Workshop
Workshop & Travel Details
I’m so excited to have you at Hands All Over. This workshop is going to be such a good one, and I wanted to make sure you have one easy place to come back to for the main details.
This page is here to help you get prepared without overwhelming you. I’ll add more as we get closer, but for now, this will cover the basics you need.
What to expect
This workshop is for photographers who want their couples work to feel less awkward, less forced, and a whole lot more real.
We’re not just running through random poses and hoping something lands. I’ll be walking you through how I actually guide couples to create connection, tension, movement, and images that feel natural without feeling flat.
You’ll get to see how I direct, transition, create variety, and build with more intention so you can stop relying on random poses and start understanding what actually works.
Your workshop also includes Couples Posing Guide Vol. 1, so you’ll have that foundation in your hands before, during, and after the workshop.
The goal is not to leave with just a few ideas. The goal is to leave seeing couples work differently and feeling way more confident when it’s your turn to lead.
Travel Info
For anyone flying in, DFW Airport is usually the easiest option since it sits between Dallas and Fort Worth. Dallas Love Field is another option and can work well too, especially for those staying on the Dallas side. DFW is the larger airport serving both cities, while Love Field is located in Dallas.
Where To Stay
Downtown Fort Worth is the closest area to the workshop and one of the easiest areas for hotels, restaurants, and things to do nearby. Dallas is another popular option, especially for those turning the trip into more of a getaway or wanting more of a city feel. The Stockyards are also a fun Fort Worth area to stay or explore, especially if you want more of that classic Texas atmosphere. Fort Worth’s visitor guide highlights Downtown/Sundance Square and the Stockyards as key districts for visitors.
Hotel Ideas
Some areas worth looking into for hotels:
Downtown Fort Worth
The Stockyards
Dallas
A few popular options people tend to look at:
Omni Fort Worth Hotel
AC Hotel Fort Worth Downtown
Le Méridien Fort Worth Downtown
Hotel Drover in the Stockyards area
Food
If you stay in Downtown Fort Worth, there are plenty of restaurants and bars around Sundance Square and the surrounding downtown area. The Stockyards are another great area for food, drinks, and a more classic Fort Worth experience.
Things To Do
If you have extra time while you’re in town, Downtown Fort Worth and The Stockyards are two of the main areas people usually explore. Downtown has restaurants, shopping, and nearby attractions, while the Stockyards are known for their western heritage, nightlife, and the twice-daily cattle drive.

Take This Workshop Further
Your workshop includes Couples Posing Guide Vol. 1, so you’ll already have that foundation going in.
If you want to keep building after the workshop, Vol. 2 is the next layer. It goes deeper and helps you keep expanding on what you learn inside the workshop, especially if you want your couples work to feel more intentional, connected, and strong.
Couples Posing Guide Vol. 2 is not your average posing guide.
This is not just a list of random poses to copy and hope they work. This guide was built to help you create stronger couples sessions through better flow, better direction, better body language, and a better understanding of what actually makes these images hit.
If Vol. 1 gives you the foundation, Vol. 2 is what adds the depth.
Inside, I break down the sets, the tension, the body language, the prompts, the direction, and the why behind what’s working so you can stop shooting couples in a way that feels stiff, random, or flat.
This guide includes both male/female and female/female examples throughout and is designed to help you get more out of one setup instead of constantly trying to force a brand new pose every few seconds.
This guide is for you if:
you already have Vol. 1 and want to go deeper
you want your couples work to feel more intentional
you struggle with flow and getting variety
you want to better understand tension, direction, and body language
you want more than just poses to copy
Inside you’ll find:
9 core couples sets
prompts and direction
flow and progression
male/female + female/female examples
linked full galleries to study the full session flow and extra variety
This is the guide that helps you understand not just what to do, but how to build from it.
