Over the two days of shooting you will have the opportunity to capture at least 8 different, striking setups.

You’ll learn all of the pieces that were necessary to bring the concept to life. Lindsay and Chris will guide you and answer questions as you photograph stunning scenes.
At the conclusion of the workshop, Lindsay and Chris will give a brief overview of a few of their favorite post-processing techniques. Using images from the workshop they will demonstrate color grading, painterly techniques, or other tips to put the final touches on the images you have created.
