About the workshop

In August I had a workshop with Petra Molnár in Sweden. Petra in very friendly, sympatic, easy to work with and she also have a fantastic figure. I already knew at that time that I wanted to make another workshop with her. You won’t be disappointed if you decide to join this workshop!

On this workshop we will shoot natural light. This will give you a lot of photos you will walk away with from the day. We will shoot four different sets, from lifestyle to lingerie to nude. The best thing with working with natural light is that it is faster and easier to make changes and it is also easier to get a lot of variety in your photos. All of the lighting skill approaches I will teach you can be utilized in both studio and natural light settings so you can improve your photographic skills during the winter months.

Everything I will teach you at the workshop are my original ideas that have been tested over years of hard work as there are no short cuts in photography! Only five participants each day will result in much individual quality shooting time.

Expand your portfolio with beautiful images shot with natural window light and in a great location with a beautiful and professional model! Drinks, coffee and snacks are included! The workshop will be in English and the model also speaks English.

Individual coaching

This is available on Friday January 31st. There are two slots available, 10.00-13.00 and 14.00-17.00. An individual coaching is tailored for your needs and it includes a lot more shooing time than a workshop. Great opportunity to get more deep knowledge and to make sure you get a lot of great photos of an amazing model with my guidance!

Some of the main topics

- How to achieve good colors and especially great skin tones
- The foundation of good and beautiful light
- How to change and manipulate natural light
- Knowing your limitations and advantages and work with them
- Shaping the model with the light
- Speed up your workflow
- Metering and exposure
- Getting it right in camera
- Posing and angles
- Interaction with models

Knowledge and equipment

To participate there is no special knowledge or skill level needed other than knowing about the basic camera settings such as iso, aperture, shutter speed, white balance etc. My way of working and explaining is very easy to understand. I can promise great results even if you have nerver worked a model before.
In terms of equipment it is not that much needed. I recommend 50mm or 85mm or 24-70mm or 70-200mm or similar lenses. Ideally you should have a lens with a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. Since we will shoot natural light it is an advantage to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with 2.8 aperture.

Location

The workshop will take place in a studio in Rodgau-Weiskirchen (which is near Frankfurt). It’s easy to get to the studio by car or by public transport from Frankfurt. Detailed instructions will be provided shortly after booking. The Frankfurt airport is very well connected and it is easy to fly there from many cities around Europe.
