Workshop Dusseldorf Germany

On June 28th I will be teaching a full day workshop in Dusseldorf Germany.
We have an amazing model and a really cool location.
This is the kind of workshop you really don’t want to miss, at the moment we have 4 tickets left so if you want to learn a lot more about model photography and want to ask all the questions you always were afraid to ask or did not get the answers to….. well this is your chance 😀

Always shoot….

During trips it’s often travel, travel, travel….
And what do you do during travel?
Well you can of course work on a new book :D, do some surfing (if you have internet) or…. well what I love to do is do something that will get me some cool images, and when you have a model traveling with you it’s easy of course.

 

Sometimes you think “this location is not interesting enough” and you don’t shoot, but I’m 100% honest when I say that almost every location can be interesting if you use the proper angle to shoot it from, or use the “elements” that are available. In this case we were on the ferry to the UK and it was very windy (as usual) so I worked a lot with the hair of my model.

 

All shot are done with the Sony A7r and the Sigma 35mm 1.4 and Minolta 85mm

Location location location

We all know the term, location, location, location.
Meaning in short, that the location is very important….
Well that is of course 100% true, however sometimes photographers over-think this rule a bit too much and think they really need a STUNNING location to be able to make good shots. And I have to agree, this helps a lot of course, but I would like to challenge you to also shoot some images in locations that are actually not immediately jumping out as “stunning, wow or great”.

 

During the session we did with Nadine in Almelo we shot in some very nice location, but somehow I also always try to find a location that is actually not jumping out as a WOW location, but that I can transform into something interesting.
