These intense workshop explore the fundamentals of Fashion & Beauty, Editorial and Lifestyle Photography in the studio through a series of lectures, presentations, discussion, hands on training and shooting.
Understanding how to communicate with your team and your model is fundamental in creating creative imagery that sells fashion and lifestyles.
Through hands on shoots with agency models and supported by my creative team of fashion stylists, makeup artists and hair stylists, you will explore the basic ideas, concepts and components of creative storytelling in fashion photography.
You will walk away with your own unique fashion, Beauty or lifestyle stories to use in your book.
I believe firmly in teaching attendees how to creatively think for themselves and learn on their own once the workshop has come to a close. Editorial photography is about storytelling, exploration and emotion.
– Portfolio Review Session: Each workshop begins with a portfolio review session. Students are asked to bring a portfolio of no more than 20 images in print or digital format on their laptops and/or Ipads, which will be reviewed and critiqued on the first day of the workshop.
This gives me the opportunity to see where you stand in your development and what skills and techniques should be focused on during the workshop.
I will go over such procedures as working with editors, deadlines, assignments and freelance projects, building and presenting a story online using personal websites. The nuisances of working with editorial clients and how to facilitate and advise will also be covered. Preparing for the future and impending changes in the industry will also be discussed.
– Photographing under adverse conditions: Gaining your subjects trust and photographic ethics.
–Camera and lens selection: Memory card and accessory selection, Canon versus Nikon versus everyone else and buying new versus buying used. How to work with your camera and use its
many functions to it’s full potential and also camera and lens field care.
