Irvine Portrait - Irvine Photography

Since I was not able to secure at least 4 paid participants, I had to cancel this weekend workshop.   Stay tuned for next month’s planned shooting, and spread the word so we can guarantee the event.

=====================================

Glamour/Fine Art Workshop planned this month.

Update: our model for the workshop is Aniya, one of my favorite models.

Also, I’m trying to get a makeup artist for this session.

If we like their work, we need to tip in exhange for model releases.   

Attendees:  I have two confirmed so far; I need 2 more to make this work. 

 ===========

I’ll have a fine art model for 2 hours of shooting (artistic nude, glamour). We will first do a set design and lighting for the first hour, then shoot for two hours/ish.

If you are interested, please do let me know by commenting!

It was a huge effort to pack up my whole studio and haul it to the New York, New York casino in Las Vegas, but well worth it.  We photographed a beautiful model named Anya (a local Vegas model) and the 13 other photographers enjoyed themselves getting shots for their portfolio.  To see most of the shots by these guys, check out the Photoshack album http://www.photoshack.com/thumbnails.php?album=4436
