HOW DOES IT WORK?
This event is an opportunity for you as photographer to work closely with each model. You will be working with each model in a group of three photographers for an hour in a studio and then swapping over to work with the next featured model in a different studio. We will be using three studio spaces in the mill for portraiture and you will be working in each of them.

We will be on hand to provide assistance and expertise when using the lights.
