Studio Portrait Workshop with Sony - Featuring Shayben Moussa

Digidirect
Learn to master editorial portraits & studio lighting with a real client

About the event

Shayben Moussa, a seasoned photographer with a knack for capturing life's most unforgettable moments. With a whopping 16 years behind the lens, Shayben's journey has seen him snap over 1,000 weddings and explore every aspect of the photography world.

In 2016, Shayben shook things up by switching to Sony, drawn in by the game-changing A9 release. Since then, he's been unstoppable, blending technical prowess with a natural talent for connecting with his subjects on a deeply emotional level. Now he shoots with two Sony A1 bodies and every lens you can imagine.

What makes Shayben truly special is his ability to make anyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Whether it's a teary-eyed bride or a nervous executive, Shayben's charm and empathy shine through, resulting in stunning images that speak volumes.

From breathtaking landscapes to intimate portraits, Shayben's portfolio is as diverse as it gets. With each click, he not only captures a moment but also manages to freeze raw emotion and the beauty of life itself.

In a world where every photo tells a story, Shayben Moussa's work is a vibrant tapestry of laughter, love, and the endless possibilities of the human spirit.
