with Sandrah

What happens when you stop freezing motion and start shaping it?
In this workshop, we’ll work with slow shutter speeds, to create images where movement becomes part of the image itself—blur, flow, and timing over technical perfection.

Our model Sandrah is a former professional model, and her controlled, expressive movements are perfectly suited for slow-shutter photography. Her ability to repeat motion with precision allows us to explore layered exposures where strobe light anchors the subject while ambient light draws movement through the frame.
We’ll cover:

• Slow shutter techniques (handheld & tripod)
• Directing movement instead of static poses
• Using blur as a creative tool

This workshop is for photographers who want to experiment, loosen control, and see motion differently. All levels welcome—curiosity required.
Miss a few frames.
That’s part of the process.

Model: Sandrah

Please note:
This is a fine art session that includes partial nudity. Participants must be 18 years or older. Professional conduct and respect for the model and fellow photographers are essential at all times.

Join us for a striking sensual portrait photography workshop in my Union Square daylight studio. Our model Sandrah will pose in a series of bold and atmospheric setups featuring leather styling, oiled skin, and shimmering water droplets that catch the light beautifully.

The session explores how to photograph sensual imagery with strong lighting and artistic intent. Expect dramatic highlights, sculpted shadows, and expressive poses that emphasize mood and texture.

During the workshop we will work with:
• Provocative styling (including leather pieces)
• Wet-look effects with oil and water droplets
• Low-key cinematic lighting
• Expressive sensual posing

Some poses will include nudity, so this workshop is strictly 18+.

This is a relaxed and creative environment where photographers can experiment with lighting, composition, and storytelling while working with a professional model.

Spaces are limited to ensure everyone gets time to shoot.
