LIGHTING & POSING

FOR PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY

The art of connecting with your subject

Posing and connecting with your subject is a MUST if you want your pictures to stand out!
Keep in mind, if you make a mistake with your lighting setup, it can be fixed in
post processing but there’s no correcting if you fail to have a connection with your subject.
This is where majority of photographers struggle the most.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

The investment in this class is $400.
We will start at 11:00am ending around 6:30pm.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

In this class you will learn to pose any subject so that they look comfortable, with naturally flattering postures.

During this session we will teach you to do this without making it look overdone, regardless if these people are professional models or not.

WHO’S MY INSTRUCTOR?

My name is Simon, I am a Marysville-based portrait photographer and this is the most powerful portrait series that I have worked on with clients to date.

I started my portrait and photography business because I wanted to create something very special as a gift for all women to enjoy.

It will be fun, fulfilling and transformational. The REVOLUTION is within you... and I want to bring it out! Join me on a fun and incredible adventure.

Remember . . . it is ALL about you. I can’t wait to meet you! Looking Forward to it!

-Simon
