In this 1-day workshop, I will teach you how to create beautiful and professional studio lighting - without needint to have expensive equipment or a technical education.
You'll get my best tips and techniques on how to build light with little effort that will significantly enhance your images. Whether you're shooting professional portraits with soft and flattering light – or want to play with more dramatic and artistic moods – you'll learn how to shape the light exactly how you want it.
We go hands-on all the way and work on how small changes in light can make a huge difference to expression and mood. You will get tools you can use right away – even at home in your own setup, whether you are new to the world of photography or already have experience.
This isn't about making it perfect. It's about daring to create! With the light you have, and as the photographer you are right now.
Are you ready to take control – and take your studio photography to the next level? Then this workshop is perfect for you.

Everyone can join, but must have knowledge of their camera. It is the perfect mix between theory and practice.
Coffee, water, lunch and afternoon sweet
Do you want to learn how to work with studio lighting and create images that are professional, aesthetic and completely in your own style?
This course is for those of you who want to get started with studio photography – or those who have tried it a few times, but are still staggering in the dark (literally). You will get a complete handle on how studio light works, how to set it up, and how to guide the model/client to obtain the right expression.
We work practically all the way through. You get to try it yourself with your own camera – surrounded by calm, support and honest feedback. No stupid questions, no tech talk for tech nerds – just concrete knowledge and lots of hands-on practice.
You go home with:
There is room for both beginners and intermediates – and most importantly: You don't need to know everything beforehand. Not to know all in advance, creates even more space to improve your skills
Just show up with a camera, curiosity and the desire to improve. I will introduce you to the world of studio lighting and teach you everything you need to get started yourself.
This workshop is the perfect mix between theory and practice. I first teach theoretically, then I show what I mean by doing a “live shoot” so you can see my theory being used in practice. Afterwards, it is YOU who has to pick up the camera – because you need to have it in your hands to get the full understanding.
You will get one-on-one time with a model so you can also practice instructing the model in posing and expression, etc.
My teaching takes place in a very "non-technical" language ALL can join – even the brand new photographer!
This is primarily a workshop about studio lighting for portraits, beauty, etc., but I present the use of colored light and spots. If more in-depth knowledge is desired, you should instead take the workshop that deals specifically with this.
So grab the camera and let's get started!!
If you do not find the answer you are looking for, you are always welcome to contact us
You must bring a camera and everything that goes with it, batteries, cables, memory cards, etc. If you shoot tethered, you must also bring what you need for this. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING CHARGED AND READY.
ALL can participate.
As long as you have a check on the use of your camera and do not expect a deeper technical breakdown from the class, you can easily participate.
You get training and ideas before it's your turn to photograph and you get in the degree upgraded your portfolio and new knowledge within SO many areas of photography and entrepreneurship
All the models are super experienced – some of them even make a living from being a model.
Everyone has a beautiful basic makeup that really pops on camera - all to give you the coolest experience and beautiful photos.
The models are all SO sweet and helpful if you are nervous
The models will typically be English speaking and they are all SO nice and helpful if you are nervous
Oh YES!! I will spoil you with coffee, water, a fantastic sandwich lunch and some afternoon sweets.
Remember to tell about allergens etc. as soon as you have bought your place at the workshop.
You get a FULL day of creativity and photography!
You will experience a perfect symbiosis between theory and practice. We start the day with a bit of theory where I talk about my own experiences, come up with tips/tricks etc.
This is followed by you watching me shoot live with a model, so you see theory put into practice. Then it's your turn to be behind the camera
Along the way, you will update your portfolio with some beautiful high-end images in exclusive surroundings, you will create a network for life.
No. As the content of the workshop is dedicated to those of you who participate and because you will also see material that has not yet been published, video recordings will be omitted during the course.
Photography is permitted during the course, as long as it does not show the content of the lesson being presented.
It is SO cool to have a lot of "backstage/mood pictures" and I would love to receive them all from you afterwards.
As I am constantly documenting the trips for future advertising for this type of bootcamp, you must be OK with the fact that you will appear on visual material and video.
It is material that will be used on social media and my websites etc. to promote this bootcamp.
YES YES! We're upgrading your portfolio, so FINALLY show them off! It should be mentioned that the images may be used for display on So-Me (Instagram, Facebook, photo groups, etc.) as well as LinkedIn and your own website.
Sales, publications in brochures, magazines, etc. as well as competitions etc. is NOT the intent of the images from the bootcamp and is not allowed.
Crediting of teams is always mandatory and you will be told who is to be credited each time.
No, not at all – it will all be presented at the workshop itself, where you will get a lot of options and ideas.
