Your Studio
• At the end of the day it is your work space.
• Be aware of how it looks to clients.
• Renting VS. Owning
Brutal Truth Time

in fashion Mpls isn’t your market.
2. Learn to bite your
       tongue.
3.Your student card will

4.You aren’t going to leave school
  and start shooting tomorrow
Thank You.
