Transformational e-courses for photographers who want to overcome blocks, find their true vision, and blossom as artists.
Hi there!
I’m Laura Valenti - a photographer and curator who helps people hone their vision, deepen their relationship with their craft, and make meaningful images they love.
I’ve had my fingers in a lot of pots in the art world, for over 20 years now. I teach interactive e-courses, support emerging photographers in my creative mentoring program, speak to photo groups, and curate exhibitions for galleries and photo festivals around the world. I also jury photo competitions and serve as a reviewer at national and international portfolio review events, where I help photographers fine-tune their vision and promote their work with more confidence.
The Light Atlas courses are here to help you clear creative blocks and bring forward your most skillful, authentic, wholehearted work. Each of my offerings goes deeper than mere mechanics - into the heart of making your creative process brilliantly, joyfully alive.
Free Creative Resources...
SIGHT + INSIGHT
Join me for a free, five-day photography e-course! Sight + Insight is about slowing down, deepening your relationship with light, and making poetic, heartfelt images. If you're bogged down by “rules” and "shoulds," this course will help you recalibrate and connect with your inner artist. All cameras (and all levels) are welcome! You’ll get the first lesson as soon you sign up.
BEING PRESENT
Sometimes I wake up in the morning with creative ideas...and I grab my phone and record a voice memo from bed. And now, I’m sharing them for the first time! In this one, I chat about what to do when you're somewhere breathtakingly beautiful...and you can't find anything to photograph - along with a few other ideas about connecting with your environment on a deep level. Get the audio.
TAKING THE JOURNEY
Another “early morning, bright idea” recording, made while teaching a photo retreat in China and Eastern Tibet. In this one, I chat about freeing the creative spirit. If you ever feel like you prep too much, research too much, and get too mired in tools and technique…and you're ready to spend more time actually being an artist - this audio will help. Get the audio.
