Working with Valerie I was able to move forward in my passion for Photography and have landed many clients that I couldn't have imagined!

The RCC Academy Design course was more than just a workshop!  I worked away with strategies that I can implement immediately and realized my greatest potential.  I have now started my very own draping classes based on my many one-on-one conversations with Valerie.  I highly recommend taking the course!

Attending the RCC Academy Design Course was simply amazing!  I began using the tablescape design techniques in my own designs and booked my first big client!
