Cherelle fashion 1:1 workshop

Today it was time for a 1:1 workshop with one of the most beautiful models I know (well ok they are all beautiful bit it sounds nice, doesn’t it ?) Cherelle. The 1:1 workshops are always special because the student can make his/her own program, and for me it’s always challenging because I can often do stuff I normally don’t teach during the workshops, or do in my own work.

Fashion shoot with Rianne

On Wednesday it was time again for a live stream from our studio.
During some photoshoots we use a webcam in the studio and stream the whole day for the viewers who are interested to see what we do during a photoshoot. Rianne was our model for this day and she needed a new portfolio so that meant a lot of different looks in a short period of time, a perfect day to stream.

Our team :
Photography : me
Assistants/Video : Wendy Appelman / Dilani
MUA : Linda (Beautyfx)

Testsession and introduction new model LT.

As you might have read on Twitter, we’re looking for new models for the workshops.
Every once in a while it’s time to refresh the models of course and at the moment we’re in the middle of the testshoots. In these testshoots the models are in the studio for approximately 1-2 hours and in the testsession I try to build a portfolio for them, but most of all of course test them for the workshops. The models I use for the workshops have to have certain qualities which go further than just being pretty.

Yesterday it was time for LT, and yes that’s really her name (it was the first thing I asked).
LT will be doing some of the fashion workshops for me and I’m already in love with her looks, very classic and a great sense of humor.
