Six-Week Workshop (once/week)
Tuesday evenings, 7-10 pm
August 1 – September 5, 2006
This is a new approach to this class, started last season that everybody seemed to love. With Julia Dean as the thread through the class, each week will bring in a different portrait photographer who will show their work, discuss their style, and cover any technical topics that apply to their work. An assignment is then given, based on the guest teacher’s style of work. The following week, the next guest teacher critiques the work given by the guest teacher from the week before. This is a GREAT way to learn six different approaches to shooting portraits.
Workshop Fee: $415

Saturday & Sunday, 9 am – 1 pm

We’ll also discuss how to use your flash as a fill light, which means balancing ambient light with the light of a flash unit. You’ll learn how to use your flash on camera, off camera, and on a light stand with an umbrella. You’ll learn more about flash than you ever dreamed possible in one day!
