“I believe creativity is within all of us, and when we connect to it, we connect to our true self”

GRACE COSTA

My drive and commitment to living a creative life have inspired me to share this drive with others as a Creative Mentor. I mentor adults in the creative development of photography projects and camera skills.

I share my knowledge by speaking at events such as Ladies Wine Design and Nikon’s Refocus Retreat about my creative process and journey in becoming a photographic artist.  

I host private tuition and public group classes in Canberra and Melbourne.

LOOK OUT FOR JUNE SESSION

Whether you are a beginner, or mid career, let’s get together and learn from one another’s images. I’m really looking forward to this event becuase I know we can all gain so much from understanding what makes an image successful.

This webinar is designed to be a safe place to comment, share and encourage fellow photographers in a casual non-intimitating environment.

PRIVATE MENTORING

I offer personalised 1:1 mentoring sessions that are tailored to your photography and creative needs. Whether you are a beginner and wish to learn the basics of photography, would like guidance on starting creative projects, or if you have a niche you are passionate about and would like to dive deeper into your skills, I’m here to help you. 

Theory classes are conducted at the National Library and practical classes we decide on a location that suits you. Sessions are $285pp for 1.5 hours and include class time and post class image critiques. 

You get to control how many sessions you need.  I have had some students that stay for a whole year and some that just come to learn one specific technique that can’t learn anywhere else. 

Let’s have a chat about what direction you’re looking to take your creativity.

TESTIMONIALS

Grace takes a holistic approach to photography mentoring - something I didn't expect, but have definitely valued. Lessons ranged between the evolution and history of the art of photography, camera and hardware function, lighting, composition, editing, working with people and good business practice - all of which have contributed to my personal and professional development. While Grace willingly tailored our lessons to suit my skill level, she also challenged me to move beyond my comfort zone. Her flexibility, knowledge and high standards have definitely made me a better photographer.

Grace has been the warmest and engaging teacher, she has made it so easy to learn and has never once made me feel uncomfortable. She has encouraged me beyond belief. Her natural teaching style and our strong rapport means we have fun every lesson too. What I have really appreciated is that Grace took the time to find out what I wanted to get out of the lessons and from there she tailored each one around my desired learning outcomes. Because she has so much experience photographing many different subjects and genres, she is always able to give specific examples of how she 'uses' the camera in those situations - this made me connect the dots much faster.
Sarah WalshPhotography Mentoring Client
I’ve never liked getting my photo taken so wondered if going to the effort and paying for a professional was really for me. From the moment I first spoke to Grace she put me at ease advising what to wear and how to do my makeup. She was fantastic during the shoot, clearly knew her stuff and was very patient with my awkwardness. She got the photos back to me promptly and they are all fantastic. If you’re nervous, I say do it anyway, it’s worth it!

I had a great time at the workshop. My husband and I both learnt heaps and walked away not only feeling more confident with how to use our camera, but more interested in pursuing it. Grace's slides were very helpful and she explained each of the concepts in plain language so that we were able to keep up.
