Merry Christmas Everyone!
I hope this time of the year is filled with love and joy for all of you.

Here is a promised workshop I've mentioned earlier.
It's exactly the opposite in terms of the shooting process comparing to the one I posted for Jan 6th.
Photographers with any level of experience are welcome to sign up.

THE THEME
This workshop is about the textures.
I'd like to combine a full body covered in clay, with a hand painted backdrop and certain elements of nature that can be found in our local forests this time of the year.
I'll be making a custom backdrop for this.
It takes about 1.5- 2 hours for the clay I'll be using to dry on the skin. I also want to take time washing it off and not clog anybody's pipes, so I won't be renting a studio for this.
We'll shoot at my home studio in Gastown. Those of you who have been here, most of the furniture will be gone; so we will have the distance.

In terms of posing this would be similar to my earlier type of work: sculptural, dynamic, figurative. We've done similar workshops in the past with metallic body paints. This time I will use clay.

Here is a video by Lindsay Adler on her creative process for this theme:

We will do our own thing with a different colour scheme.. but the general goal is the same: to make all textures work with each other in harmony.

LIGHTING:
We can use 2 lighting set ups:
-One more dramatic and contrasty
-another with soft and wrapping nature of light.
If you have your own favourite set of lights, feel free to bring it.

THE FORMAT:
For this session I'd like it to feel almost like a private shoot, its 3 hours long, with 3 participants max.

Any.
