In-Studio Creative Day!

We are going to be trying to get back into smaller limited events.

I have decided to share my creative days in the studio if anyone is interested. I will probably be body painting a model and then working on that theme in the studio. Please note I am not looking for a model to paint, if I have one she will be done when the event starts as the painting takes quite a few hours. Additional models will also be brought in so that everyone has someone to shoot. If no one signs up, then I will still bodypaint the model, as this is how all of this started. :-)

I am opening the doors to a few photographers to join me, but keeping the group small, so everyone has a chance to shoot one on one. I have some lighting and lots of space. You need to be over 18 to attend, and if nudity offends you, please don't come to this event. However, this is not a "nude workshop" or any such type of creepy event, as all photos must be tasteful and work you would be happy to show the world.

These are stress-free days for those who just want to relax and take some photos, hang with some great people for the day, and learn a few tricks, nothing more. These are active learning events, so you will learn some lighting, posing, and other info as I tend to teach when asked.

PLEASE CONSIDER BRINGING CASH TIPS for the models and hair & make-up. It is optional of course, but a great way to show your appreciation and helps to build your network.

If you have your own lighting, feel free to bring it and use it as you would like. We use Godox (gomolight.com) as well as Paul C. Buff CST (paulcbuff.com) triggers for our strobe lighting. We have a few constant lights as well, but I will encourage everyone to play with the strobes and learn to use them.

VIRUS CONCERNS:
I take the virus seriously, so keep that in mind. If you feel all of this is overblown, then please consider waiting and attending later when COVID has a cure or a consistent treatment. My daughter has a weakened immune system, so exposure to this is not acceptable. Therefore, if you feel for ANY REASON you might have encountered someone with the virus, or feel you are ill (at any level), let me know you are ill and you can use your ticket for a future event. I will not punish those who decline to attend because they are sick. DO NOT ATTEND IF YOU ARE ILL! Doing so is a pretty crappy thing to do and you should consider yourself part of the problem. I expect everyone that is attending to feel they have been careful and are respectful for those of us that have family members that can't afford to catch this thing, even if you feel it isn't a big deal to you. If that works for you, then go ahead and sign-up. I do not expect people to wear masks for a 4-hour event, but if you choose to do that, no one will judge you for it. Cheers!
