When .visuals joined IOC her goal was to become a photographer and have a business that could allow her to travel and support her family.
And now? She’s booking out campaigns with luxury fashion and swim brands, travelling back and forth between Bali & Australia and showing her daughter that being a ‘girl boss’ doesn’t have to mean sacrificing the things that matter most to you.
Cass, we couldn’t be prouder of you for taking that leap of faith and believing you and your family deserved more.

To celebrate our last Bali photography bootcamp starting on the 5th May, we’ll be sharing stories of students who started the program with little to no experience and are now living their dream lives.

When Emilio & I were young we made a promise to ourselves that no matter how busy life got we would always find ways to spark joy, to chase adventure and to be in the moment.
Running our own business gave us the freedom to to that - to prioritise experiences over things, book spontaneous trips where we can work remotely (to South America, Italy, Japan, Thailand and many more), and always make time for the people we love and the projects that inspire us.
So to celebrate 10 years since we had the idea that seemed a little crazy at the time - to launch an immersive bootcamp that could teach people everything they needed to know to start a thriving creative business in under 3 months we wanted to give back to the community that has supported us over the years and show our support for you.
We’ll pay the first $1000 worth of tuition for 100x people who are ready to change their lives and build a business on their terms.
Applications are open now, via the link in our bio.

Next month we’ll be hosting our last ever Bali bootcamp - so to celebrate the magic of this program we’ve been running for ten years and our 500th student we’ve got 3x $2000 scholarships up for grabs to help you change your life.
This is a zero-to-hero program where you can join with zero previous experience and we’ll teach you everything you need to know to build a thriving web dev business — and then we’ll be by your side whenever you need us in our mastermind program.
There are only 3 spots left, and this is the last Bali web dev bootcamp ever so if you’ve had this on your bucket list for a while, let this be your sign that the time is now.
If you want to be considered for one of the $2k scholarships, slide into our DMs and let’s chat!

You asked, we listened.
Last year we asked how we could help you make this your best year yet, and in response we filmed a series of 9x in-depth free workshops to help you build a life that makes you happy - that gives you more time, more flexibility, and more financial security.
So many of you reached out to share how helpful you found these videos, that we wanted to re release them for one month to make 2024 your year.
To prioritise you and build a life on your terms. We hope you find them helpful.

“Those two days changed my life.
I had never considered a career in web dev, to be honest I didn’t really even know what coding was but a friend forwarded me your website in a weekend challenge and I thought hey why not give it a shot?
It’s not an exaggeration to say that those two days changed my life. They sparked a fire in me for coding and I fell in love with it from the very first lines I wrote. By the end of the weekend I wasn’t just hooked I was excited - something I hadn’t felt about my 9-to-5 job in a very long time.
I was nervous to take a new passion and turn it into a career but I decided that’s life’s too short, so I enrolled in the digital bootcamp and the rest is history. I get to wake up every day and do something creative I love, and get paid for it. I’m working with the best clients and my business is growing and if it wasn’t for that two day weekend of coding I would probably still be stuck in a cubicle… so thank you.”
— conversations with an IOC alumni this week got us in the feels. It’s been a little while since we’ve hosted a live event, so with our next web dev digital bootcamp starting in Feb we thought it could be fun to host another beginner friendly coding workshop.
We want to make sure we have the resources to give every student one-on-one support so this will be a ticketed event and to help everyone have the opportunity to try coding for themselves and build a live website from scratch, we’re giving away the first 100x tickets to our live Website in a Weekend event on the 6th & 7th January for free (general admission tickets will be $150).
Want in? Comment below and tell us why you want to join or tag a friend who deserves one of the free tickets!

Day 6 of the advanced photography bootcamp here in Bali: adventure day 🌴
Today was all about experiencing what it takes to be an adventure/travel/campaign photographer.
That means chasing sunrise and sunset, it means early starts and long days but it can one of the most fun/rewarding types of photography which is why we cover it in the Bali bootcamp.
We headed north from Canggu to check out a beautiful lake and majestic waterfall, taking two amazing models with us and a range of styling to give our students variety in their portfolio - from summer dresses to wintering jumpers.
When we say we go all out to make sure our students succeed, we mean it and gosh darn are we proud of what they produced in these challenging conditions 💪🏼
If you have ever thought about joining one of our bootcamps whether that’s online or in-person, now is the time to sign up with $1500 off any of our courses 😳
We can’t wait to welcome you to the IOC family so we too can see your smiling faces as you too, build the life of your dreams 🔥

We are excited to be sharing our biggest sale to date with up to $1500 off any course 🔥
For us this time of year is all about setting up the foundations of a strong year ahead, so we wanted to give you an alternative to buying another sweater that you don't really need - a chance to invest in your future, & make an positive impact on the world at the same time.
So we decided to take it a step further and give back the beautiful people of the island we now called home, Bali.
And we think one of the best ways we can give back is through the gift of education.
So for every bootcamp purchased between now and the end of this year, we'll give a full-ride scholarship to one of our beginner friendly foundation courses (worth $350 each) to a Balinese person who wants to learn in-demand digital skills - empowering a generation of Balinese people to learn tangible digital skills and start their own online business.
So make sure to nominate a Balinese person you believe deserves a scholarship by sending us a DM and if you want to enroll in one of our courses, head to the link in bio 🤗

Day 5 of the advanced photography Bali bootcamp:
After a massive day of business and editing it was so awesome to see the students decide to head out after class by themselves to take all the knowledge they had learnt over the past few days and just shoot to have fun and be creative!
It’s crazy how close our students become after just a few days together and it’s one of the elements we are most proud of - being able to create an environment that fosters collaboration and peer based learning. And while every group of students is different, there is always this common thread that ties it all together 🤗
P.S. HUUUUGE Black Friday sale is dropping this weekend. Stay tuned for more details on stories and if you are subscribed to our mailing list, make sure to keep an eye out for something extra special 🤫

Day 3 of the advanced photography bootcamp here in Bali and boy was it a big day.
We kicked things off with a mix of group and 1:1 sessions with mentors to help the students really dive deep into business.
Working through different elements of the business world from lifestyle alignment to goals to mindset and so much more. Taking everything we had talked about in our comprehensive digital bootcamps and taking one step further.
These days can be one of the most challenging for students but it’s also the days when big breakthroughs can happen. Our Bali bootcamp is all about pushing your skills and business to the next level so you can create the life you have always wanted.
After some nourishing food, it was time to introduce our students to some other incredible photographers who took the time to give insights into their world as successful business owners.
While we are a co-ed school, how freaking awesome is it that over 80% of students are women - so it was only fitting to have 2 extraordinarily girl bosses remind them that just what’s possible.
We can’t wait to see where our students end up after putting all of these skills & knowledge to the test once the bootcamp wraps up!

Day 2 of the advanced photography bootcamp: Interior Photography
Todays practical lesson is all about shooting interiors - we rented arguably one of the most aesthetic villas in Bali to give our students the chance to learn the art of the perfect interiors shoot. From knowing the right angles, to understanding HDR, to looking for the details, to learning the way light falls and sooo much more.
Here is a little insight into the fun the students had while running a round getting shots they needed to fulfill the “client brief” we had provided - our course is all about creating real world scenarios to simulate and prepare our students for a career in photography.
We are real world professionals helping budding photographers bridge the gap and build a profitable, successful photography business.
If you want to take either the first step to learning photography or perhaps you already have a strong understanding of the foundations but want to take your business and skills further, keep an eye out for a MASSIVE Black Friday sale in the coming days 💪🏼

Kicking off our Bali photography bootcamp with a little game of photography bingo - helping our students get into a flow with their gear and open their creative mind before a huge 10-days of non stop shooting and learning.
We are so excited to be running this incredible bootcamp again with the most amazing group of students. Although we are a co-ed school, we love that over 80% of our students are women. With creative industries like photography and web dev often quite male dominated, we love that our programs attract epic women ready to take on the world and do something they love!
To celebrate the joy these bootcamps bring us, we’ve got some sweet early bird deals on 2024 digital & Bali bootcamps - slide in our DMs for all the details 🙌🏼

We get this question a lot, and with all the scare tactics in the media we get it.
But if you have the right strategy and the right skills, AI isn’t a threat at all - if anything it’s an opportunity to streamline your business, deliver more value to clients and maximise your profits.
In our upcoming digital bootcamps we’ve added new lessons to help you leverage AI in your business and get you booked out with clients who want *your* uniquely human skills.
Just yesterday we caught up with one of our IOC alumni who only 3 months into running a web dev business landed a client worth $5.5k USD and has a flood of client enquiries in her inbox 🎉
We teach you how to build websites that stand out from the crowd, how to attract your dream client, how to communicate your value to them and importantly how to streamline your workflow and make sure your projects are profitable.
If you’re considering a career in web dev, I hope this helps ease your fears - you’re on the right path. And if you want us in your corner sharing everything we’ve learnt over the last 10x years then get yourself into the next Web Dev Digital Bootcamp.

Our programs combine mentor-supported online learning with a 10-day intensive in Bali to help help you launch a new career in web development or social media marketing in only two months.
We’re like no school you’ve ever been to before - trust us. Our immersive, one-of-a-kind courses connect students with leading industry experts and trainers in an accelerated learning environment.
Over 10 days in a luxury pool villa, we take an ambitious group of budding and established entrepreneurs, designers, marketers - with little to no technical experience - and teach them how to build beautiful responsive websites, wield a camera, create inspirational Instagram feeds, write 12 month business strategies and more.
Our courses are hands-on and project based, meaning students will be coding, shooting, writing, pitching and strategising – you name it – from the very first day. By the end of your chosen course, you will have measurable results – perhaps a portfolio of 2-3 responsive websites or some content marketing jobs lined up. Not bad, right?
We work hard on bootcamp but we also provide plenty of downtime and luxury touches to get you in ‘the zone’. Between an on-site chef whipping up delicious meals to blissful yoga lessons and intrepid explorations of Canggu, you’ll walk away from this experience inspired and ready to take on the world.
Our Courses:
Web Development Bootcamp
With little to no previous technical experience, we'll teach you how to write HTML, CSS & Javascript code to build responsive websites from scratch.
Social Media Bootcamp
Become a social media manager or an influencer. We'll teach you everything you need to know to grow your audience and start generating income from social media.
