JULY & AUGUST 2007

WORKSHOPS Series: 'FASHION' & PORTRAIT'

Dear 'students',
June 2007 photography course is coming to an end and I would like to thank you all for your attendance and hope you learned new useful 'on location' techniques with both Giorgia and myself (in studio).

After high demands and interests in 'portrait' and/or 'fashion' photography from our students, I decided to organize a series of WORKSHOPS focusing on 'portrait/fashion in studio' (for some of you who are staying in Seoul during July & August 2007)

FASHION in STUDIO (with PROFESSIONAL model and stylist/make-up artist)
Cost: 175,000 won

Workshop can be followed by a casual drink/dinner if desired – *not included in the tuition fee

Learn & Practice your own studio lightings & techniques and shoot with a professional model

*Each student will have a 20 to 30 min. slot on his own to create his/her own image! (depending on total number of student - max. 6/7 students)

It is advised to bring samples of desired lighting and creative references (samples of lightings, styles)
