***************************************************************************************

IMPORTANT: If you like to come at 11:30am 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 11:30am, 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! I will also teach my work flow from shoot to final image! working with photoshop, and lightroom! Bring your laptops if you want to practice with me!
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 nude shots! If you feel uncomfortable with nude this workshop is NOT for you.
Disclaimer: this is NOT porn or playboy style, we create artistic images that are of the human body! see samples from previous workshop!
I'm limiting this studio workshop to 12 photographers! Please make sure to register soon if you are interested! Please register before Feb. 22, I would like to know who is planning on coming. Thanks!
We will have full model release forms available from the model to all the photographers!
You can use the images ONLY to promote your work!.No Selling of the images will be allowed.
