Important Notes: Please Read Before Booking
This workshop is organized on a TFP Time for Prints basis. That means:
1 - Our model is volunteering her time in exchange for professionally edited photos. She is not compensated monetarily, so please be respectful and professional at all times.
2 - After the workshop, participants will be expected to select and send a few of their best edited photos to me. I will compile and share them with the model as part of the agreement.
3 - This is a key part of the workshop arrangement; only book if you are committed to sharing your edits afterward. In this hands-on workshop, we will dive into the essential skills for working with models from directing poses and creating comfort to capturing stunning, expressive portraits. You will be working alongside a professional model and a makeup artist I have personally collaborated with before. Together, we will demonstrate live posing techniques, discuss styling and lighting considerations, and share practical tips on how to communicate effectively to bring out the best in your subject. Whether you have worked with models before or are just starting out, this workshop will give you the confidence and tools to elevate your portrait sessions and shoot like a pro.
