• Tired of seeing the same mockups over and over again on Instagram, Behance, or in client decks? Let’s fix that.  In this class, you’ll learn how to create custom, high-end mockups using free images in Adobe Photoshop — mockups that look art-directed, intentional, and unique to your brand presentations.

• Mockups aren’t just decoration; they’re how your brand lives in the real world. They tell your client’s story and show how a brand feels in context. Whether it’s on a tote bag, storefront, or lifestyle photo, these visuals can turn your presentation from good to wow.
• This class will take you behind the scenes of my own brand design process and show you how to build your own set of bespoke mockups that can elevate any project without needing to purchase premium templates.
