A quick look at Natural Light Portrait Workshop

On Saturday April 22nd we had our first part of Natural Light Portrait Photography Workshop at Omnilargess Services office. It was a two-hour classroom session and I discussed various professional poses both for female and male models.

Andrea and Holly were our models for the day. Both of them are beautiful young ladies with no experience in modeling! Here I would like to thank both models for their help, enthusiasm and patience during the morning and afternoon classes.

Professional models are very familiar with poses and camera angles, thus it makes it easy for photographers to capture amazing photos. The focus of Natural Light Portrait Photography workshop is to challenge students and encourage them to apply their newly learned knowledge into practice. This is the best way of learning; therefore I used models that did not have any modeling background. It made the participants work harder to achieve the result. I am sure you all agree that this is the best way of learning professional portrait poses.

In the afternoon we met at one of the Abbotsford parks (Fish Trap Creek Park) and students were divided in two groups with a model available for each group to exercise the practical poses. I explained how to take advantage of a light disk (reflector) as fill light, while discussing the settings on the camera and why one needs to shoot in manual exposure.

Here are a few photos that students took at the workshop. Take a look and enjoy the beauty of our models and the talents of our students. On Saturday April 29th we are going to have Omnilargess Flash Portrait Photography workshop, starting at 10:00am. If you missed the natural light portrait workshop, but the eagerness and excitement encourage you to learn professional poses, this workshop is for you. There are few more spots available.

That is all for now. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
