Private workshop
During this training, you will be accompanied individually to learn how I create natural, captivating and artistic dog portraits. My workshops are not only about shooting and post processing techniques, you will also learn about my entire philosophical approach to dog photography. We will explore everything from composition, natural light, poses and expressions, dogs in action to the image processing workflow. You will be helped throughout your training in order to resolve the problems encountered and correct your errors.
Your training:
You will have the choice between two possibilities for your private training: you can choose a training on 1 day or on 2 days.
On the first day, we will start by studying the theory of dog photography. We will then leave to make some images with a beautiful variety of dogs with different colors, breeds and sizes. You will be transported to a forest where the possibilities are endless, I will show you how I work with dogs and their owners in order to create authentic portraits.
The second day begins with a second practical part where I show you how to take photographs of dogs in portraits and action in another forest. Then we will post-process the images taken. I will show you the processing I do on my images on Lightroom, Camera Raw and Photoshop.
