Here's Why You Need to Come to The Think Inside The Box Workshop

What happens when you give photographers a set, some paint, killer models, and total creative freedom? Let’s find out.

Our first-ever Think Inside the Box Workshop is going down in just a couple of weeks in Jersey City, and we still have a few spots left. If you’ve been thinking about it, this is your sign to grab a ticket. It’s going to be seriously amazing.

Here’s why:

You’ll photograph two incredible models: Rachel + Isabella

Both are NYC-based models that we love working with — not just because they’re stunning (they are), but because they bring so much energy and creativity to every shoot.

Meet Rachel

We recently worked with Rachel during our fashion collab with Tabbe Designs in NYC. If you saw our Instagram stories featuring inflatable dresses, that was the shoot! Rachel has this wildly expressive face that makes her so fun to photograph.

Meet Isabella

We’ve done three shoots with Isabella, and every time we’re blown away. She’s drop-dead gorgeous and incredibly flexible (she’s a yoga girl, and it shows). Her ability to move and pose in unique ways inside our sets brings something really special to the final images. You can check out past shoots with her [here] to see what I mean!

Oh — and we’ve got hair + makeup covered

We’ll have a full hair and makeup team onsite to give everything that polished, high-end feel. Nothing levels up a shoot faster than great glam.

You’ll build your own set — and we’ll help you do it

A huge part of creative growth comes from working within constraints, and that’s exactly what we’re leaning into for this workshop.

We’ll have a curated selection of pre-made set pieces for you to choose from. You’ll pick the elements and design your own set (no experience needed — we are there to help), and then David will build it for you!

We’ll also have a lineup of our favorite paint colors available, so you can customize the look and vibe of your set. 

Style the shoot your way

We’re bringing a rack of fun, colorful, quirky looks for you to choose from! You’ll get to style your model and pick which look your model wears for the shoot.

David’s been hard at work designing custom workshop journals just for you. They’re colorful, monochromatic, and the perfect space to sketch, brainstorm, take notes, and track your creative ideas throughout the weekend.

And did I mention the location?

We’re hosting the workshop at Lindsay Adler’s iconic firehouse studio while she’s out of town. The first time we shot there, it felt so exciting, and now you get to experience that magic, too.

So if you’re ready to have a ton of fun, create something truly unique, photograph incredible models, explore the world of conceptual photography and set design, and walk away with portfolio pieces you’re proud of — this is your workshop.

Especially if you’ve been feeling uninspired or creatively stuck lately. This is the kind of creative play that gets you back in motion.

Join us August 23–24 in Jersey City for the first-ever Think Inside the Box Workshop.
