Creating "Flexible imagery" (for lack of a better word) can be approached very differently.
Most contortionists (and dancers) are extremely strong and have unique physical capabilities.
I will apply all my skills, showing you how to get the best out of the model, to help you create visually eye-catching images that are stylish, sensual, or erotic.
And perhaps with a humorist twist.
And I will show you how to take charge and direct the shoot to control what kind of images and quality you will get instead of "just" relying on the model.
When working with flexible models, there are some unique things to consider. And when you do, the images can become magnetic.
The program:
We'll create images ranging from sculptural photos to images where we use environment and furniture to create a more intimate feel and give a greater variety of images you bring home.
Other than nude, the model will bring a range of accessories and lingerie to use if we want.
We will cover composition, lighting with different modifyers, posing, and some editing.
To maximize the shooting time on the day, you will in advance get access to an online version of Thomas' presentations on Composition and Lighting to watch beforehand.
Then on the day, we'll cover some of the points live and set up lighting for different sets while explaining the process so you will get the best possible understanding.
Thomas will end the day by showing you how to select the best pose from a set in Lightroom and will edit this live to show you how to get everything out of your images.
And you will receive a printed copy of the edited image before you leave.
There are only FIVE spaces available at this intimate workshop.
