About the event
Since the restrictions in Melbourne will be eased from 8th November. Its time for us to get and out enjoy ourselves. Shoot and learn and blow away the dust from our amazing camera gear.
I am pleased to announce our first Melbourne National Light Outdoors Portraits Workshop.
It will be a 2 and half hour session on understanding the key element of lighting in portrait photography. I will teach different ways of using national light and show how a minor modification in light and shadows can turn a simple photo to a moody dramatic storytelling image.
There will be 2 agency standard/agency female models available during the whole session to shoot with.
Covid Safe Instructions:
1. All attendees must be in good health without any COVID symptoms. Anyone with fever or cold will be requested to leave the workshop.
2. As per Victorian state laws, all attendees must wear a face mask during the whole workshop. Models will be allowed to remove their face masks during the shoot.
3. Physical distancing and density requirements such as 1.5 metre distancing from each other and models.
