Photographing women requires attention to detail. Tina will discuss composition, directing and lighting, and how to use techniques that compliment the subject’s features, skin and body shape. She will also talk about what to consider when planning the shoot, from possible locations and models, to creative style and the crew (make-up artist, assistants and stylists). One of Tina’s favourite models Kimberley Holladay will join for part of the talk, followed by a limited Q&A session with Tina and Kimberley.

Themes covered in this talk include: Lighting, composition, directing, styling, finding a model, model releases and photoshoot do’s and don’ts.

Photography Experts bring you the very best photographers who excel at their craft but also deliver a top-quality Web presentation that is as entertaining as it is informative.
