Femme Fatale [fem fuh-tal, -tahl, fey-; Fr. fam fa-tal]
n. A mysterious and seductive woman whose charm ensnares her lovers in bonds of
irresistible desire, often leading them into compromising, dangerous, and deadly situations.

Capturing seductive interior portraits with natural and continuous lighting

Using both continuous tungsten or HMI daylight spotlights, Damien will show his delegates how to light and shoot natural feminine beauty portraits as well as boudoir style photography. Damien will teach a wide variety of lighting techniques including some great but simple light modifiers. Delegates will learn how to create beautiful interior portraits on location with minimal lighting equipment that will be easy to replicate in your clients own home. This 'less is more' approach to photography will be a breath of fresh air.

There will be no Speedlights or big flash, just beautiful Hollywood style lighting with the 'what you see is what you get' magic that comes from continuous light sources. You will learn how to master light and composition in your photography. Marry these new skills with a better understanding of how to capture soul in an image and you will leave with an outstanding selection of images, ready to use in your portfolio, on your blog or website or even your own studio walls.

Summary
• Learn how to pose and direct your model/clients
• Capture beautiful interior portraits using continuous and ambient lighting
• Learn simple repeatable lighting techniques including how to manipulate and modify light

Take your photography skills to the next level with Damien.

Cancellation Policy

As our costs for each workshop remain the same no matter how many delegates attend, please note that just like any pre-booked tickets for the theatre, concert, flights etc, we are unable to give any refund in the event of non-attendance, regardless of the circumstances. The exception to this is if we have prior notice and are able to put a cancellation place back online AND your place is resold.  In this event we will of course make a full refund or credit to you. We also reserve the right to cancel any workshop if there is insufficient demand, especially if it means that our costs would be higher than our income.  Please therefore do not leave it until the last few weeks if you are interested in a particular date, as you may find that it has been removed!
