Get hands on at Sony House Cape Schanck

About the event

After an informative talk, join us for an exclusive hands on portrait photography workshop at Sony House Cape Shanck, where you'll have the chance to put your learning into action with professional models on site. Whether you're a beginner or experienced photographer, this session will help you refine your skills and take your portraiture to the next level.

The Location - Sony House Cape Schanck

Discover the stunning Cape Schanck House by Paul Morgan Architects, an award winning property - Robin Boyd Award. 

Located near rugged coastline, Cape Schanck House sits within an expanse of native trees subject to strong prevailing winds. This tree growth has a distinctive pattern, a result of light stimulus, or phototropism, which causes the trees to form a natural ‘tunnel’ at the west of the site. The interiors also create the perfect canvas for portrait and editorial photography. 

What to Expect:

  • Expert Talk: Gain valuable insights from Sony Digital Imaging advocates, who will discuss the best lenses, cameras, and settings for stunning portraits.

  • Posing Tips: Learn essential posing techniques that will bring out the best in your subjects and make your portraits truly pop.

  • Lighting Demonstrations: See the power of Nanlite lighting in action and learn how to use light creatively to enhance your portrait work.

  • Hands-On Workshop: After the talk, get hands-on experience with the latest Sony Alpha gear, including GM lenses and high-resolution camera bodies. Try out the equipment while photographing professional models on site.

  • Interactive Learning: Experiment with different lenses, settings, and lighting setups as you shoot, with guidance and feedback from experts to improve your results.

  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with fellow photographers, creatives, and industry professionals. Share tips, exchange ideas, and build valuable connections with others in the photography community.

This workshop is the perfect opportunity to practice your skills, learn new techniques, and experience the latest Sony technology—all while capturing beautiful portraits with professional models.

Seats are limited, so be sure to reserve your spot today! Don't miss this chance to take your portrait photography to the next level.
