San Diego Photographer

The Headshot & Portrait Photography class this last Saturday was a huge success! The model, Lauren Marie was absolutely amazing to work with (as always). The students in attendance benefited from a great experience and learned what it took to use the available light around them and how to work with a model. More importantly they learned how to direct their subject and come up with creative ideas to use their surroundings to take great photos that POP! Although the rain forced us to move the class inside, we were still able to improvise and have a great class. To view all of the photos uploaded by the students click here or view some of the below.

Saturday was the last class of the month, Headshot & Portrait Photography Class. We had 8 people come out and learn the many different techniques when taking headshots and portraits outdoors. We spent the morning at Presidio Park and spent the first hour and a half covering the basics of headshot photography and what to be aware of when dealing with the sun outdoors. Then we had 2 models arrive and pose for the photographers in training to learn and have hands on activities. My way of teaching is not to stand and lecture all day, but cover the basics and allow for everyone to get real experience and feedback on the pictures they take of the models. 


Based on the evaluations I received at the end the class was a huge success and everyone had a good time, even the models were really excited to work with everyone.

Saturday was a huge success with our 3rd ever Photography 102 class. With 9 eager photographers in training ready to learn it turned out to be a fun and education event that benefited everyone in attendance, even Jason Kirby, the instructor. We just want to say thanks to Jessica, Tess, Andrew, Raymond, and the rest of the gang that was able to make it out that early Saturday morning.


I hope to see you all at the next San Diego Photography class next week.
