Welcome to creative portrait photography! In this one-day workshop, you can look forward to learning and practicing new creative techniques in photographic portraiture. Our time together will be structured around twohands-on collaborative photoshoots. Some examples of concepts we may explore include prisms, water, colorful lighting, making your own creative filters to shoot through, and more! Models and materials will be provided, just bring yourcamera or smartphone. There will also be some opportunities to jump in front of the camera if you’d like a few portraits of yourself! We’ll be focusing mainly on portraiture, but some of the techniques you’ll learn can certainly be applied to other subjects as well.
Our objectives are to spark creativity, create compelling imagery, learn new techniques, and have fun in creative community!
Our time together will look something like this:
Shoot 1 (2-4pm): 2 hr studio setting in the afternoon (Duxbury, MA)
Break (4-5pm) - hour break with an informal Q&A / guided discussion of our creative goals and practices
Shoot 2 (5-7pm): 2 hr outdoor setting at golden hour
Each shoot will feature different models, location and theme.
Workshop is taking place at Studio West in Duxbury (796 West St, Duxbury, MA 02332).
