Posing and Lighting the Nude
The lights never went off at the Carriage House, fortunately!
This three hour workshop (7 pm to 10 pm) is an introduction to glamour, boudoir and fine art/figurative photography for those who are interested in learning the basics of lighting and posing the nude, and do not feel they have sufficient command of lighting to work independently with a live model and lighting set ups.
NOTE: Preference for participants will be given to those who signed up for the workshop in June, before it was rescheduled to July due to a model conflict.
The model for the workshop will be Carolina, a new Brazilian model who is starting to develop her portfolio. You can see some of her work in the meetup.com PHOTO ALBUM: Carolina – Lighting the Nude workshop (http://www.meetup.com/The-Carriage-House-Studio/photos/9244072/)
The workshop covers the following topics:
A. Basic lighting set ups for studio photography for:
- glamour
