Starting a new year on a solid standing is key to achieving set goals and targets that take your career from one level to the next. The means to doing this is attending classes and learning from masters of the craft and that is exactly what the 14th AIP Portrait Lighting & Retouching class is.
According to the facilitator, Aham Ibeleme;
“The workshop is a must for those who want to take the mystery out of using strobe lighting, learn to become a creative force, and THINK LIKE AN ARTIST!”
The Workshop is an opportunity for all photographers, professional or amateur to hone their photography skills by learning from one of the best in the business. The three-day intensive workshop will take participants through the tricks of the trade and provide in-depth hands-on photography techniques that can be used to dramatically improve day-to-day creative skills, as well as insight for those hoping to enter into the business of photography.
Over the three days, Aham will have models on-site for the hands-on lighting demonstration. Each of the attendees will have an opportunity to experiment with the various lighting techniques covered in the lectures, so it is advised that attendees bring their camera kits!
Aham promises to cover a lot of his personal Photoshop techniques used in his photographs, holding back nothing in revealing his photographic process. To finish the workshop off, the last session “Thriving in the Marketplace”, is designed to prepare and encourage photographers to get out and create an income with their craft.
