Woodbank Works, Turncroft Lane, Stockport, Cheshire, SK1 4AR

Join us for an evening shooting with model Dante-Layla.  Dante-Layla is probably best known for her latex outfits and I am pleased to say that she will be bringing some to the event for us to shoot.

Photographically, I’m going to include some lighting setups with gels so if you want to learn how to work with gels this is a good event for you to attend.

Dante-Layla will be working to lingerie levels for this event.

You can find examples of her work on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dante-Layla/311113772319780 and here is a gallery of images from a number of shoots I have had with Dante-Layla: http://photos.imb.biz/model/name/dante-layla

A minimum of three photographers booking will be required to run this event.

Don’t forget, Academy Members get a £5 discount on this event.  Why not join the Academy today? (It only costs £6)

Woodbank Works, Turncroft Lane, Stockport, Cheshire, SK1 4AR

This session covers three lighting techniques for Art Nude photography. Each technique uses just one light, what makes these lighting setups different to those covered in the other one light art nude workshop is that we do not use studio background paper. The lighting set-ups covered at this session are:

  • White wall, High-key, large softbox with a bounce board
  • Grided spot on a boom stand (to shoot a model on the floor)
  • Gridded beauty dish angled down the wall

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.

Please note: That we have a number of Art Nude sessions.  Each session is designed to teach different techniques, with the minimum of overlap.  The sessions can be done in any order and no previous studio experience is required for any of the sessions.

Suitable for: Anyone wanting to learn how to art nude photography in the studio.  Your camera must have a standard hot-shoe to accommodate the lighting trigger.  You will need to be able to set your camera to manual mode and select an aperture in the range f/5.6 – f/11.  No prior studio experience is necessary.

I am pleased to announce that the model for this event will be Ella Jaye – https://purpleport.com/portfolio/ellajaye/?referrer=ianbutty This will be Ella’s first workshop at the studio, but I have already done a quick test shoot with her to prepare for the workshop.  You can find the images from that shoot here:  http://photos.imb.biz/model/shoot/ellajaye1.

A minimum of three photographers booking will be required to run this event.
