Bo Zhang, New York Fashion and Beauty Photographer (www.boandbro.com) will be visiting the Carriage House to conduct a fashion workshop. The subject of the workshop and lighting techniques will be of interest to both studio lighting and strobist photographers. The model Bo has selected for this workshop is Oriana (www.wix.com/olayendecker/model), who has worked with many of the top DC fashion photographers (Tim Colburn, Tony Veloz, and others…)
Unlike other workshops where there is a lot of shooting and not much teaching, this workshop is aimed to give much more detail photoshoot workflow process. Go through with Bo the thought process behind planning a shot and the technical aspects of executing a shot. The workshop will be limited to 10 photographers to ensure plenty of direct involvement with Bo.
The workshop (2 pm to 7 pm) will cover a beauty look and a fashion look. In the first part, Bo will cover what to look for when searching a model, a MUA, a hair stylist. Then Bo will go through the process behind each look and what to look for in the final beauty or fashion photo. You will learn how to interact with a model and what directions to give.
Each photographer will have the opportunity to take photos of each look. In the second part of the workshop, the photos will be uploaded to the computer and a group feedback and critique session will start for the best pics from each photographer. Feedback will include, but not be limited to details to look for when choosing the final photo, and what to look out for in post processing each specific photograph.
(Please note, this is not a lighting workshop or a workshop to get dozens of images for your portfolio. This a a workshop to teach you the subtle details to get your photo to the next level!)
