The first hour will be a workshop on posing sitting individuals—let’s walk before you run. Bring your cellphone and be prepared to be photographed. We’ll pair into couples and work on posing each other through a systematic approach that uses the tried-and-true cornerstones of posing. We will start with a facial analysis of the subject to find their best side and the classic facial poses, then move on to a taste of essential lighting and then finish with some classic poses.
In the second hour, we will be reviewing how your LeConte club asks you to judge photos. Bring your glasses, a pencil, and a willingness to have an opinion. We will be judging images as a group using your system. It is not the only way to judge a photo, but it breaks it into a coherent approach.
Please come willing to participate as it will be a lot more fun and more likely to stick. Those who usually have a lot to say, please be prepared to be concise. If you don’t usually say much, please stretch yourself and speak up. I’ll try to make room for you to have a voice.
