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

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!

Who attended?

  • 7 attendees
    •  We learned a lot, the model was awesome! I think everyone learned a lot and had good time. 
    •  I'm very happy to have gotten to work with some very talented people and learn a new aspect of photography that i haven't tried out before! I felt very comfortable and welcome here, even though i am not nearly as advanced as many of the other attendees are. I'm very glad i came and had fun, I would definitely come for a workshop again. 
    •  Was disappointed I had to leave early, but still learned alot in the time I was there. Mike has a way about teaching that makes you feel as if you were learning from a friend. Awlays a good time when I go.
