Submerged
A Breathless Experience
June 10-13
THE MYSTERY THAT LIES BENEATH
The mysteries that lie beneath the surface of the water are so compelling to me. I have been working with water for decades as a scientist and photographer exploring its properties. After many years of shooting clients, I wanted to show others just how great the experience can be when you let go of your worries and follow your clients into a ethereal movement under the surface.
If you have wanted to try underwater work but do not have a housing--You will be allowed to shoot with my gear and I will send you the raw images for you to edit back at your studio!
WORKSHOP
This intensive underwater workshop will teach you how to take your boudoir company to a new level.
UNDERWATER SHOOTING
We will have pool time for each photographer to get in there and test out these skills with a model for boudoir, as well as for the look of senior portraits for your portfolio.
Join us at camp with a rented pool for underwater shooting.
TOPICS COVERED
I will be working through the logistics in equipment maintenance (you don't really want to flood your precious camera now do you?)
Wardrobe selections for using each type of session will be covered to ensure safety of your clients
Underwater makeup tips to bring back the color loss
