Sydney Weekend Ticket - Creative Scoop Workshop

A wonderful 2-day workshop covering how to work with multiple light set-ups, props and styling. Jesse and the team were fantastic and had a wealth of knowledge. I am excited to explore some of these practical techniques in my photography work!

I took the Creative Scoop product photography course at a point in my journey where I was already experienced behind the camera, but something still felt missing.
I had learned everything on my own, through trial and error, practice, and intuition. And while that got me far, I always had this feeling that there were gaps in my knowledge, things I couldn’t quite define, but could definitely feel in my work.
This course changed that completely!
Creative Scoop is not just “another photography course.” It’s incredibly rich in knowledge, but more importantly, it brings clarity. It helped me connect all the dots I didn’t even realize were disconnected. Suddenly, things that used to feel confusing became simple, intentional, and precise.
What I appreciated the most is how deeply it goes into the why behind every decision — lighting, composition, styling, storytelling. It doesn’t just show you how to create beautiful images, it teaches you how to think like a professional in commercial and product photography.
After taking this course, I can confidently say that my work improved significantly. My images became more refined, more intentional, more elevated. I feel like I have a stronger creative direction, and a clearer understanding of how to execute ideas at a higher level.
But beyond the technical improvement, this course gave me something even more valuable, confidence. Confidence in my process, in my decisions, and in the value I bring as a creator.
If you’re self-taught like I was, and you feel like you’re “almost there” but not quite, this course will bridge that gap. And if you’re just starting out, it will give you a foundation that most people take years to build.

Highly, highly recommended.

P.S. Jessie is also such a great teacher!
Genuinely enjoyable to listen to and watch :)

Incredible 2-day workshop! Perfect for any wanting to learn commercial photography or refine their skills. Jesse also shares so many great tips and tricks for on set etiquette and helps you grow your business mindset. Would HIGHLY recommend for both product and portrait photographers whether your a freelancer or work agency side.

Amazing insight into the back end of FJC, walking away feeling inspired, motivated & confident.

Jesse is a wizard at products & lighting - thank you!

This felt world-class and was so fun and interesting. It went above & beyond in the intel, I feel spoilt!

Such a brilliant workshop from Jesse and the team, so knowledgable and zero gatekeeping which is so invaluable.

Such an incredible day full of valuable information and insights which I can implement into my shoots in the future.

I loved today. There is so much information and it's great seeing everything happening in person.

I really enjoyed a day learning from Jesse and how she approaches to building a lighting set up! Being among other creatives was a great social injection! Thank you for your knowledge & time!

Maddie and the team are incredible, always there to help out and chat through options.
My collection now must look like the propsyland warehouse. The backdrops are the perfect size and the props. Oh my god the props, good weight, perfect smooth finish and get scream high end!!

My go to!

My go to!!!

This has officially become my go-to recommendation whenever someone asks me what product photography course they should take. It genuinely covers everything — and anyone who does product work knows it’s never just a simple point-and-shoot situation. There are so many moving parts, and this course actually walks you through them in a way that makes sense.
I’m still not even that far in, but I’m already kind of blown away. I’ve tried picking up tips from random videos and articles over the years, but everything always felt a bit scattered and never quite what I needed. This course feels like someone finally sat me down and said, “Okay, here’s how this actually works,” without making it overly technical or overwhelming.
And honestly, the lighting section deserves its own shoutout. Lighting models used to stress me out so much — it always felt like there were a million ways to get it wrong. Before my first proper shoot I was low-key panicking, but after watching the walkthrough, something finally clicked. The way it was broken down made it feel so doable. I went into a recent campaign shoot feeling way more chill and actually understanding what I was doing, instead of just guessing and hoping for the best. That alone made such a difference.
Overall, this course has honestly been one of the best things I’ve treated myself to. It’s super practical, surprisingly fun, and it actually makes me excited to get shooting again. Every lesson gives me that little “ohhh, I get it now!” moment, and it’s such a confidence boost after feeling stuck for so long. I’m genuinely so happy I found this — it already feels like it’s leveling up my work!!!!

Thank you Creative Scoop team!

I genuinely loved this course. It goes beyond just photography techniques and really dives into how to build a sustainable creative business — something I’d always found intimidating before. The business modules were inspiring and actually made me feel confident to take action. The templates, resources, and real-life examples gave me a framework to follow.

The photography techniques were equally valuable. I really appreciate how Jesse explains the reasoning behind each setup so we can understand the logic, not just copy it. I’ve learned so much about multi-light setups and how to use different tools effectively. It’s truly levelled up my photography skills!

There is so much content in this course!! Although I am an experienced photographer, I still purchased the course when I was looking to advance my approach to multi light set ups & gels. Jesse shares so much valuable information and starts right from scratch so regardless of where you are on your photography journey there is a benefit for all. I really enjoyed the more complex set ups, the DIY studio set ups and I have even now created my own mock bathroom for my studio!

Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge and techniques - I love it when as an industry we can learn from each other :)

"I just purchased your course. I'm on the 2nd module so far & I'm loving every bit of it. This is the most valuable product I've purcases. You're a great teacher and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge."
