What is elevate!

We offer a unique, intimate experience for both boss babes and gents who are ready to elevate their business, client experience, and personal life and this is why we limit our attendees to maintain an intimate setting. We’ve taken out the projection screens and long tables and upgraded you to a more inviting atmosphere giving you a fireside chat feel and the opportunity to directly interact with the speaker allowing you to get answers to your questions on the spot. During this experience, we are ditching the sales pitch tactics and getting down to the nitty gritty, hands-on experience you desire and deserve.

This was by far the BEST workshop I've ever attended. The information, templates, hands on experience....superb!! I've never left a workshop saying I will attend this one again. 

Chaukeisia A., Modern Twist Events

Booked a client today with the new proposal we learned. They loved my presentation! 

Morgan, morgan linzee photography

One word can describe the shoot today, lovely. The shoot was lovely! The sun was shining and everyone was putting forth their best effort in order to create magic! I had the best time with our bride Amber. She was so radiant. The workshop was very informational and awesome. I cant wait to see everyones photos from the day!”

Victoria, Tori del photography

Shamira did a great job breaking down how to attain content for your brand. I appreciate that she broke up the group in different sections and had us rotate throughout each content phase. This gave all the attendees space to be creative on their own and align photographs with their brand.

Kimberly, Brushed script

It's a great way to network and everyone was so sweet. It's been a great experience!

Yvonne, Yvonne moore events

It was the best experience! I have so much confidence in my florals now.

giovonnia, G Paulette Creates

Super Super amazing. It was unbelievable and magical. This was everything! Shamira was very professional and hands-on. I learned how to use chicken wire instead of foam. I can't express how excited I am.

Hannah, Hanna Autum Film Company

It was great. Everything really matched the moodboard. I liked the different aspects of the curated shoot.

Tamara, The Lux Experience by TJ SMith

I had to go! Texas was a long drive from Mississippi. I was so right. I now have the skills to create the designs I knew I was capable of doing but wasn't familiar with real florals. Shamira's class was small and intimate. She did not rush us. Not a moment was wasted. We learned A LOT, okay!
