1 day workshop in creative beauty photography

1 day workshop in creative beauty photography:

"I'm NOT technical and I'll never be either". It is a phrase that I have ALWAYS said when I have been asked about teaching or holding workshops.

The idea is shot down immediately. "What can I teach other photographers and photography enthusiasts??" "They expect all the technical stuff" "I'm just doing it..." It's just a FRACTION of the doubts that lie in the queue when I've sometimes considered whether you should look into it more closely. From there, the ideas are simply discarded and forgotten...

UNTIL!…..

I was contacted by a photography club (Gate 5) whose members had asked if I would hold a workshop and we talked thoroughly about it. Of course I came with all my little "can't" thoughts, but in THAT moment the bucket turned and something clicked: I don't need to teach the technical stuff - I can teach the CREATIVE!!! To think outside the box, to go through how I work and show how I think when I have to "play" with flowers, lights, etc. Simply EVERYTHING I go through before/during/after a shoot where I want to be creative. Show how I communicate with models, what I emphasize in the shot itself, etc.

VOILA! This is where my workshop was born! 1 day workshop in creative beauty photography, where EVERYONE can join

Beauty photography is SO MUCH more than technical skills….. I am living proof of that!

What exactly IS beauty?

Beauty for me equals makeup, colors, texture. Where cosmetics and creativity are paramount and retouching must be RIGHT in the closet. There are NO limits to how creative you can/can be!! See my beauty shots HERE

I am not addressing the photographers who have just unpacked the camera from the box, but the photographers who know their camera, who want to be inspired, who need a kick in the inspiration, who love creative play but can't really get into it, who would like to take pictures for magazines around the world, etc. You do NOT need to be a professional photographer - as long as you have knowledge of your own camera, I will do the "rest"

** This is not a workshop in technique or retouching **

I will of course cover basic things about lighting, but more in practice than in in-depth lecture-like explanations

On the 13th of November I will be holding my very very very first 1 day workshop in creative beauty photography and I am SO GLAD!!! I can reveal that I have a few surprises up my sleeve for the participants 😉

I'm not going to hide the fact that it's SUPER transgressive, but I am clear mentally now and I'm really looking forward to it!

are you coming I will look forward to THAT if you do

XOXO
