Architecture & Interiors Photography
Details
There's no escaping architectural photography, even if all you shoot are advertising, weddings, fashion, news. If you do any location photography at all, you need to be adept with interiors and exteriors as well.
In this workshop, you'll find out why an immobile subject actually requires a lot of preparation and specialized technique. You'll study how structures "evolve" in the changing light of day, how and when to add artificial lights to achieve the desired effect, and to get into the "character" of a structure, like getting into a model's head.
This workshop isn't just for photographers who shoot for architectural magazines, hotels, restaurants, and shops. Even fashion, wedding, and advertising photographers who shoot on location face the challenge of working the essence of a venue into the shot, even if only as backdrop.
