SHOW ME THE LIGHT™ Lifestyle Photography: A Modern Approach to Wedding Photojournalism and Photographing People
If you are an intermediate, advanced, or pro photographer, you will be able to utilize this cutting-edge approach to light and space to perfect your images.

“The course was one of the most beneficial I have ever taken. In a few hours I improved from taking average photos to taking professional-level photos. Phil took his time to make sure I understood some basic camera functions. He also demonstrated some essential equipment a wedding and event photographer needs to have. Course would be beneficial to both the amateur and professional photographer.” -Charles Outlaw, Charles Photography

Moshe Zusman, my friend and colleague and now one of the most outstanding wedding photographers in Washington DC, wrote this on his blog after assisting me at one of my workshops, "Children, from Smile to Finish™ with Adobe Lightroom 2®"

On Sunday I participated as a helper for Philip Brasch’s “Children, from Smile to Finish™ with Adobe Lightroom 2®” workshop. Philip is a good friend and an awesome photographer who specializes in portraiture and weddings. The workshop, which took place both in-class and outdoors at “Dolphin Beach” in Montclair, VA was a great opportunity for beginning as well as advanced photographers to learn some Lightroom tweaks, workflow tips and most importantly, capturing beautiful images with all natural light – which is Philip’s specialty. Watching Philip work and interacting with the people he photographs is very inspiring. Four years ago I actually assisted Philip in a few weddings and what really intrigued me was his ability to work in any given lighting situation and maximizing the usage of available light.

More details & photos coming soon... (Ok, I'm behind. You can see how busy I've been establishing PWPPA as the fastest growing pro and pro-path photography association in Northern Virginia! Try that and run a business too!)

I thank all 27 of you for RSVP'ing so far. Our attendance is HUGE! Keep up your 5-star feedback and the management team will continue to bring you the best speakers around! You guys are awesome and PWPPA rocks!

And, read the reviews -- You will surely learn from this lecture!!

Philip

BIO

Philip Brasch's passion for photography began in his high school years when he purchased his first 35mm film camera, a Pentax ME. 10 years ago Philip developed photography as a profession by studying under and working for a few of the great wedding and portrait photographers on the East coast (including James Roy, Clay Blackmore, and Doug Gordon). Influenced by their styles and techniques, he has developed a new genre of wedding, environmental, and existing light portrait photography now popularly known as Lifestyle Photography: the use of the rules of traditional portrait lighting to maximize consistency in natural, existing light photography combined with the action of photojournalism.

His current endeavors include:
Gallery 252 www.gallery252.com specializing in weddings, portraits, and commercial photography
ShowMe! Pro-Photo Seminars and Workshops www.showme.eventbrite.com
Photography lecturer and instructor
Community service as a public speaker, mentorship of aspiring photographers, and Founder and President of the Prince William Professional Photographers Association (PWPPA)
