the VIP Experience
Join us in an incredible 13 room Italian Gothic Mansion, newly restored and open for the very first time for photographers. Each day we will spend the morning creating unforgettable images, from Fine Art Portraits in the main studio, to boudoir and cinematic images in the antique bath and bedroom areas. We will explore all different kinds of lighting, from traditional ProFoto flash photography, to constant lighting with Nanlite's arsenal of different lighting options.
After lunch, which will be catered from a local restaurant, we will relax and I'll discuss editing and how I work with the different styles we have explored during the day. Both days will follow the same schedule only with different art direction and models. The goal is to not only help you develop your skills, but also build your portfolio.
After the class is over, I will also arrange a live zoom edit so that we can come together again online and I'll go through another edit from the class. The video from that class will be available to you as well as another video of retouching that I will provide directly out of class. There are also many other goodies that I'm working on for the class, including a $100 gift certificate to Sew Trendy, elusive discounts from Nanlite and much more.
