PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS: The Nude in the Landscape workshop

Sedona PhotoFest May 5th, 2015Since the beginning of time, the human form has captivated every kind of artist. For photographers, the creation of tender but dramatic nudes takes vision, patience and an attention to detail. Every nuance cannot be overlooked including form, shadow, visual appeal, balance and gesture.In this unique workshop, instruction will emphasize how creating the right dynamic between model and photographer can produce timeless images. Composition, locations and lighting will take center stage with each student trying to capture their own vision. The workshop will be held outdoors in the beauty of Sedona, where I live with my fiancé Holly, and shot in various locations that are private, along the river and among the amazing red rocks and foliage of Sedona. Students will work with fabrics, from chiffon to lace, reflectors and diffusers, possibly the water, all the while in and around the landscape. Having the human figure out in unique landscapes is a dynamic artists have worked with forever. For photographers, the possibilities for unique and one of a kind images are endless. The night before the shoot, students will meet in the classroom to view and talk about the nude in photography. Viewing many examples, indoors and out from various nude photographers, discussion will try to convey the subtleties of photographing the figure in soft and sensual set ups. The evening talk with end with a orientation of the locations for the next days shooting.To see more photos of our model for the workshopp and read a little more, please check out the workshop here on my blog.Photoshop for Photographers can be taken as an optional second day of the workshop, The Nude in the Landscape, or can be taken as a standalone one day workshop.
