Every photographer has their own unique perspective and voice. Didi wants to help you discover and push the boundaries of yours.

Didi von Boch is an internationally award-winning photographer, visionary director, and mentor living in the San Francisco area. Known for her fuck-the-formula approach Didi reveres the everyday and elevates it as art in her vivid body of cinematic work fueled by her obsessions with color, movement, family and the Mother.

Didi’s mentorships and classes are refreshingly honest, unconventional, and permissive. As a generous and raw feelings-first mentor she leads photographers forward as they surrender self-made limitations and allow fresh, always-new approaches to create and express their visions.

Whether directing clients in person, offering remote sessions world-wide, or hosting photographers in her Mentoring Cottage, Didi is an ideal guide for those who crave a deeper encounter with the magic of photography where rebellion and personal vision are the pulse and heart of creativity.

The moment Didi launched the Mentoring Cottage, I had to learn from her. She possesses the leadership and decisiveness I desperately needed for my craft. 

 

Watching her immerse herself in her creative world, studying the setting while communicating directly with her subjects, was truly inspiring. She encouraged me to ask for what I wanted without hesitation and to take my time to get the shot I had in mind.

When I returned to New York City, I conducted a test shoot in a challenging environment, photographing someone I had never met. I incorporated everything Didi taught me. Rather than worry about perfection, I focused on feelings and emotions.

After that shoot, I already saw a noticable difference in myself and my work.

 

Those days with Didi were an invaluable gift and I am profoundly grateful.
