The Camp Tobi Fairley team is thrilled to announce the dates for a BRAND NEW Camp Tobi Fairley event devoted 100% to The Journey to Getting Published, every step: from project planning and photo styling all the way to maximizing press and publicity exposure when your projects are on newsstands, both virtual and print!

You asked for Tobi’s take on this topic, and we listened! SO many design professionals are paralyzed by intimidation when it comes to photographing, pitching, and publishing their work. It is a demanding undertaking, and it can be extremely stressful if you don’t approach it with the tools, knowledge, and confidence you need!

You can come to The Journey to Getting Published for just $2399!!

CLICK HERE if you’re ready to reserve your seat today!

OR! consider Tobi’s exciting 3-Pay option, inspired by a busy April and High Point Market:

This is how it works:

When you register you pay just $800
then 30 days from the date of your first payment you pay $800
and finally 30 days after that second payment you pay $800 again!

Does that make sense?

What is especially exciting about this premier session of The Journey to Getting Published is that Tobi has invited a few KEY experts from the various phases of publication to share their unique perspectives with our group!

Krissa Rossbund, Senior Style Editor at Traditional Home magazine, is coming to share her unique perspective on how to work effectively with an editorial staff to take your best projects from pitch to publication and beyond!

Krissa Rossbund is an award-winning journalist who feels right at home at Traditional Home. After all, it’s the magazine where she started her career and has evolved from staff intern to Senior Style Editor.

Krissa is a lifestyle and trend expert who reports on today’s modern homeowners—how they decorate, how they entertain, how they live—to shape each issue of Traditional Home into its tagline, Classic Taste. Modern Life. Her range of expertise covers merchandising, showhouses, entertaining, and most important, families with beautiful, timeless, and welcoming dwellings.

Throughout her tenure at Traditional Home, Krissa has become an authority on showhouse production, and has helped orchestrate showhouses including the Meredith Corporation 100th Anniversary Design House and the Designs on Downtown Showhouse, both in Des Moines, and projects in both Dallas and New York that supported Traditional Home’s Built for Women campaign to benefit the Susan G. Komen Fooundation. During it’s five-year run, Krissa also served as the editorial director for Decorator Showhouse, a Traditional Home supplemental publication, and currently oversees the most extensive national showhouse coverage on the market.

Krissa frequently speaks to readers and designers at showrooms, design centers, retail venues, and marketing-initiated events and programs across the country about traditional design and how it absorbs great ideas from a variety of sources, styles, and eras and gives new verve to the classics.

Krissa has received national recognition for her work, including the 2006 and 2008 HOME award, given by the International Home Furnishings Alliance for exceptional coverage of the home furnishings industry.

An Iowa native, Krissa graduated from Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in magazine journalism and a Masters degree in media law.

Ronda Carman, the design eye behind the world-famous blog, All the Best, has changed the date and location of the US launch of her hot-off-the-presses book so that the exciting celebration can happen with YOU, at The Journey to Getting Published Camp! And every attendee to our high-profile event will receive a FREE copy of the book, Designers At Home: Personal Reflections on Stylish Living and a chance to meet Ronda (along with Sandy Gilbert Freidus, her editor at Rizzoli Books!) and have Ronda sign your book, LIVE at the event!!

Ronda spent 15 years in the world of marketing and nonprofits prior to founding All the Best Blog in 2007. A lifelong love of design, travel, food – along with a growing collection of books and magazines – was the catalyst for establishing All the Best.

After moving to Scotland and discovering a shortage of storage space, Ronda decided that launching a blog to explore her musings and findings was a much easier option than moving to a larger flat.

What started out of necessity has become an expansive lifestyle blog visited by thousands of regular readers in over 100 countries. All the best has garnered press from around the globe, including Fox News (named one of the top ten design blogs in 2010), ELLE Decor, House Beautiful, domino, Southern Living, Real Simple, RUE, Home Plus Scotland and numerous regional, national and international newspapers.

All the best blog is renowned for it’s insightful interviews and profiles with industry icons, entrepreneurs and global tastemakers, as well as for the feature called “Soup on Sunday,” which is now one of the most distinguished weekly blog features. Started after her son suggested the idea, this weekly posting reflects Ronda’s long-standing ritual of making soup each Sunday.

Ronda is the author of the forthcoming book Designers at Home: Personal Reflections on Stylish Living (Rizzoli 2013), contributing writer for  Huffington Post, New York Social Diary and a reviewer for the prestigious Mr. & Mrs. Smith Hotel Collections.

A Texan by birth, Ronda live with her family in Scotland and divides time between the United Kingdom, the United States and the window seat of an airplane.

Tobi’s most-preferred professional photographer, Nancy Nolan, is joining us to show you how to work with a pro to get great shots that showcase your design work.

Nancy is an artistic commercial photographer with over 20 years of experience. In 1997, Nancy established her home in Little Rock, Arkansas and opened Nola Studios, now Nancy Nolan Photography.

Nancy’s portfolio reflects her vast experience in fashion, food, design, portrait and commercial photography. Her work has been featured in regional and national magazines. Her two books, The Candlelit Home and Candlelit Christmas, co-authored with John Terrell Fry and published by Harry Abrams in New York, received good reviews in the home decor market. The former title is now in its fourth printing.

Nancy attended the Art Institute of Atlanta. The first sixteen years of her career, she was based in Atlanta and Birmingham working with clients throughout the Southeast United States.

This amazing content, which will serve as the groundwork for every photo shoot and project pitch in your professional future, is now available to you for only $2399! REGISTER NOW!
