Richard Warren, Fashion Photographer ‘Two Intense Days with Richard Warren’ November 5th & 6th Sunday & Monday at The Edge Photography Studio – Leesburg VA TWO DAYS OF PRACTICAL PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION FOR WEDDING AND PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHERS. The Edge Photography Studio promotes Editorial Style wedding photography and portraits with an edge. We are talking about story telling, fashion, emotion, and a combination of PJ style images blended with quickly posed strong images worthy of a top fashion magazine. It’s about impact! You are probably wondering why you would be interested in attending a workshop with a fashion photographer when you shoot weddings or portraits. Looking at Richard Warren’s website and you will quickly see the answers. Richard is a master of lighting, posing, colors with impact, but most important, each of his assignments tells a story. There is a theme perfectly executed from beginning to end. Think about how you can apply those skills to your work with brides including the increasingly popular “For His Eyes Only” boudoir sessions. How to make that bridal portrait a fashion statement. • Fashion photography • Lighting on studio and location • Portfolio Critiques • Supplementary light sources • How to direct and pose your models, (you will be working with models) • Visual communication. • Boudoir Sessions. • Art and fashion influences, where It’s going and why you care. • Digital tools Richard likes and how he uses them. This workshop doesn’t promise to make you a top New York fashion photographer published in Elle and Vogue etc. You won’t find an opinionated, self-obsessed NY photographer telling you how great he is and why the world should worship him. You won’t find a workshop that’s intent to sell you a whole lot more of instructional books, videotapes, CD’s, DVD’s or “if you pay me more I will share that secret with you in my next workshop”. You will find good solid instruction by a top fashion photographer who has survived in a very tough business by being a grounded good person who knows and loves his craft. Richard is obsessive about style, perfection in posing and lighting and freely shares that information in a non-threatening style. You will have fun because you will be working with a top photographer who loves his work. Cost is only $395.00 per student.
