Photography Workshop
PORTRAIT
MALAGA
May 29
In this video I'll tell you about the Portrait Workshop
"Portraiting the Soul" is a workshop where we learn to connect with the subject to be photographed, to discover who they are, and then, using technical, communicational, and aesthetic resources, to photograph them in a unique way.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVE:
To introduce participants to portraiture as a photographic genre. It's not enough to simply know how to position the subject, the screens, or the flashes; it's also important to understand the reasons behind it.
A photographer specializing in social events or portraits must understand the essence of portraiture. It's not simply about photographing people; it's about capturing the subject's personality. There are technical, conceptual, and aesthetic considerations to keep in mind.
Participants should bring a camera and flash if they have one, as a large part of the workshop will consist of practical exercises designed to apply the theory covered, with all its variations. The goal is for each participant to take home 3 or 4 photos taken during the workshop.
