Note!!!
If you don't want to get more updates about this meetup workshop, mark is as "NO" and you will not get any other updates from me!
***************************************************************************************

NEW!!!! We now have 2 models! one for the morning and one for the afternoon! So we now have double the shooting time for the same price!
IMPORTANT: If you like to come at 10am when we start shooting you can! if you already know how to setup studio lighting and you just want to learn my setup, and shoot with the models simply come around 10am, just let me know that you plan on coming later, so I will not wait for you for the first part of the workshop.
This workshop will teach you how to actually SET-UP studio lighting, how to create a specific look that you want, and how to work with the model!
One more BONUS, We will have a nude model, I think artistic nude photographs are amazing! and I love creating them. We will concentrate on studying body figure, and posing techniques to create artistic bude shots! If you feel uncomfortable with nude this workshop is NOT for you.
Disclaimer: this is NOT porn, we create artistic images that are of the human body!
I'm limiting this studio workshop to 12 people! Please make sure to register soon if you are interested!
We will have full model release forms available from the model to all the photographers!
You can use the images to promote your work! As well as sell the images.

This was a well organized, educational, worthwhile and fun Meetup. Mike knew his stuff about the topic, sharing both his knowledge and experience with all of us. There was plenty of 1 on 1 time with the models and Mike. I would attend another one of his Meetups based on this one alone. I just wonder how much the photos we took of him showing the models his desired pose is worth? ;-)
