PORTFOLIO MENTORSHIP
The LRA Portfolio Mentorship Experience is designed to help you create portfolio work that truly reflects your artistry. Guided by Lubna Rafiq and Ilmaas, you'll receive expert mentoring throughout the creative process from look selection and model preparation to makeup, hair, styling, posing and creative direction.
Working alongside our trusted creative partners, Hill House Media and The Cactus Agency, you'll have access to professional models, luxury styling, photography and videography, leaving with high end imagery and content that showcases your skills with confidence and professionalism.
Whether you're building your portfolio for the first time or refreshing your brand, this experience equips you with the guidance, confidence and industry standard content needed to attract clients, grow your business and elevate your presence within the beauty industry.
Great portfolios aren't created by chance, they're created through expert guidance, intentional creativity and attention to every detail.

The entire experience felt so high end and organised. From the creative direction to the final shots, everything was done to an industry standard. It gave me a real insight into how professional shoots work, and the content I now have has taken my brand to another level.
