THE WORKSHOP

A creative lighting workshop, packed with bold lighting sets for burlesque silhouettes!

Hair, makeup, period wardrobe, three styled corners of a private Hertfordshire manor.

Styled models & sets

Professionally styled models sets for all half-day or full-day sessions with dedicated models on each set.

Lunch & refreshments

A buffet style lunch with the team gives a welcome break for full-day attendees to reset, review pictures, and prepare for the afternoon sessions. Tea, coffee and pastries throughout the day for all guests.

Aftercare & community

A place in our community groups to share images and support fellow photographers in celebrating the best events shots, and stay in touch long after the event. 

1-to-1 shooting time

With group sizes of only 3-4 so you will enjoy plenty of dedicated time within your group to shoot 1-to-1 with agency level models on each set. Never a scrum for position - paparazzi style shooting is strictly forbidden.

Direct access to a Lighting Director

To help your build confidence, every event kicks off with a full kit demo covering lighting and camera settings relevant for the event aesthetic. Lighting directors are always on-hand to take questions throughout the day if required.

Full lighting kit

Multi-light rig with a selection of modifiers to help you craft the perfect shots. You bring a camera, we provide the rest.

What's included

Everything except your camera.

Optional · we have these on hand

Tripod

Not required, most setups will be hand-held. Bring one if you prefer.

Reflectors / diffusers

Bring your own if you want to.

Laptop or Tablet

If you want to download and edit on the go! 

A notebook and pen

Always a good idea to jot down what works well, and what doesn't.

Essentials

One camera body

Any system; full-frame, APS-C or micro four-thirds, film or digital. All welcome.

 

Two prime lenses

50mm and 85mm strongly recommended. A fast standard zoom (24-70mm) works too.

 

Two memory cards

64GB+ each. You'll shoot 400–600 frames.

 

Spare camera battery

One spare is plenty for the day. If staying for the weekend, don't forget your chargers!

What to bring

A short kit list. That's all.

*****

"The models were styled to an exceptionally high standard and the location was extraordinary, a gilded palace. Every aspect of their events is done to an exceptionally high standard."
