L’Indochine Workshops: Beyond Selfies, Travel Edition

Last September 3, we teamed up with photographer Sheila Catilo on L’indochine’s very first mobile photography workshop entitled Beyond Selfies: Travel Edition at our Mega Fashion Hall store. The workshop aimed to equip our participants with skills to master the features of their phones as well as provide them with professional tips on composition, lighting and getting that perfect travel shot.

Aside from the very informative presentation, each of our guests were provided with handouts to help them practice and further hone their skills at home.

In between the class and exercises, we feasted on delicious eats by our generous food sponsors:

Too add a bit of fun and a slight competitive edge, we unveiled prizes from our partner sponsors for the best photos.

Prizes from Moleskin, Happy Skin and Heyjow were given out to the best mobile phone photos!

Of course, no workshop is complete without a few treats from our partner sponsors. Each participant took home these awesome goodies.

 Favorite travel essentials were included in the workshop kits. Leather card holders from Niqua Shop, Pocket notebooks from Moleskin, Nail polish from Girl Stuff, Bam balm, and Sea Salt spray from Beachborn and travel fund jars from Paper Straw Love.
