Other Events

In this session, we look at creating glamour images using the studio’s ‘red set’ which consists of a red background, red sofa, and red Venetian blinds.  In this session, you will learn techniques involve creating voyeuristic style images shot through the blind, images of the model looking through the blinds and images where shadows from the blinds are cast on the model.

Although the lighting and set-us are specific to this particular set, the skills (such as how to create shadows through a Venetian blind), are easily transferable to other studio photography shoots.

The session is a practical session and you will have the opportunity to practice these types of lighting by photographing a model.  You will be provided with lighting diagrams for the lighting set-ups taught at this session.  At this event, our model will be working at a range of levels from clothed to nude.

The model for this event will be Dan Infinity (and yes Dan is female – just look at her profile.  There is clearly no doubt! https://purpleport.com/portfolio/daninfinity/?referrer=ianbutty (NSFW)
