Went to a workshop focused around "Beauty photography". Supposed to start at 1:00 and I guess I should know better than to believe that would be true. I attended another workshop this guy put on back in April which started late as well however, in both instances, I came out with some great connections so if I go to another one of these things I have to remember its not about just starting on time.
I arrived about 10 minutes before it was scheduled to start and there were already several guys there ready to shoot but no organizer. We all complained about that for a while but pretty quickly got caught up in other chatter. I found out about some studios around NYC that are a lot cheaper than I was finding in my limited search beforehand. Nice.
The workshop was supposed to start out with a guy talking about what beauty shots were and how they were different than fashion or any other type of photography. This guy was late too (different person from the event organizer) so that part didn't come until the end and honestly, I didn't feel like he was talking about anything very insightful so I didn't stay for his full talk. There were about 8 photographers and 2 models so it was a nice shooting ratio. I've posted a couple images and placed them in a new set on flickr called...wait for it... "Beauty".
Originally I was supposed to have a shoot with Melissa M but the Saturday weather was pretty bad so we're pushed back to 9/26. All in all, I had a good time at the workshop and made some new connections. It's what you make it, right?
