About the event
I have been running photography workshops for over 4 years now with highly positive feedback from my workshop attendees.
I do not overcrowd my workshops with a lot of people. I prefer workshop attendees not more than 10 so everyone gets a chance to work and interact with models, learn techniques and get some good shots.
My workshops are not just simple group shoots. I share the exact same techniques I use in my own shoots, and I push workshop attendees to communicate with models, pose them, use their own creative imagination and create art which is unique in their own style.
In these workshop sessions, you will learn how to use your own limited gear & lighting resources, basic wardrobes and simple lighting setups which don't cost an arm and leg, so you can reproduce the similar results on your own.
