What is a Passion on the Streets Workshop?

This workshop will be different from our highly popular Urban Portraits and Street Fashion workshops because rather than photographing a pretty model in a urban environment, I'm going to be photographing the relationship between two people. The photographs will convey emotions - love, passion, fun and excitement. I'm going to use light and colour masterfully, to concentrate on design, body shapes, textures and tones and then trigger emotions and capture them. A sense of timing will be part of the workshop.

Who should attend?

Anyone who shoots weddings or portraits, who wants to be inspired, and who would love to combine their passion for photography with a holiday :) These workshops are not exclusive to professional photographers, but you will need to be competent at using your camera. This workshop will be delivered in English.

What will I learn?

Delegates will have the opportunity to see me create a moment and capture it. They will learn how to find gorgeous light in places where previously they thought none existed, They will learn how to pose a couple in many different ways and learn how to stimulate fun and laughter. Delegates will shoot everything I shoot and they will have the opportunity to direct. They'll also be able to shoot the same moments that I create from different angles, ensuring their pictures are different to those of other delegates. They'll take away memories, portfolio images, knowledge and experience.

What kit do I need to bring?

1. A DSLR camera with two or three professional lenses covering 17mm to 200mm.
2. One TTL flash gun preferably with a means of using it off camera. For Nikon users without a pop up flash, an SU800 will do the job, and for Canon users an STE2 will be needed. If you don't own one of the items mentioned don't feel the need to rush out and buy one, just let us know and we will see what we can do.
3. A bag you can dip in and out of to change lenses as required. Travel light as we are shooting on the street and diving in and out of cafes to avoid showers should we need to do so.
4. Suitable clothing as you will be outside for extended periods on some days.
