We are thrilled and honored to announce our new workshop with Richard Renaldi “The Engaging Portrait: A Stranger in Oaxaca” which will be held in June 2020 in beautiful Oaxaca, Mexico.
This workshop will place a strong emphasis on environmental portraiture and the making of photographic portraits. We will cover the construction and aesthetics of what makes an engaging portrait; including background, lighting, directing, and casting. We will also explore the figure/ground relationship, the use of creative perspectives, and the decisive acuity required for spontaneous portraiture. The main objective of this workshop is to provide students with a technical and conceptual fluency that they may apply within their own practice.
Workshop dates are: June 25th - July 2nd, 2020. Applications open on September 25th.
