About the event
I’m usually doing some spring and early summer events but also some later summer/autumn events. I think these times are the best in this location and this year we do it again.
On every event I have 3 amazing models and only 6 photographers each day to make sure there is plenty of shooting time for everyone. First model out is the amazing Kelly whom I have worked with a couple of times already. She is always interesting to work with and her posing is really cool. She also always show up with a smile which can light up the room! Next model is Iryna. I haven’t worked with her but I find her very interesting. She have a unique look and I feel inspired by her. Model nr 3 is Dorka from Hungary. Her curly have and amazing curves will be a great addition to the model line up on this event!
This is a photo event, not a regular workshop, so the emphasis will be on shooting time. Participants will be grouped into pairs, each with a model. We will rotate the groups, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to shoot with each model, which guarantees a lot of shooting time. All the models will shoot up to artistic nude unless something special is mentioned.
My role is to provide assistance, share innovative concepts, and ignite your creativity. My aim is to ensure you leave with extraordinary, one-of-a-kind photographs of our trio of exquisite, professional models. This unique setting further enhances the visual appeal and distinctiveness of your captures. Let's transform your vision into reality together!
The location
The highlight of this event, apart from the models, is the amazing location. Our expansive studio features several rooms, each with its distinct style. Additionally, there's a large "factory" section providing a rugged backdrop for our shoots. Take a look at the photos below.
Knowledge and equipment
To participate, no special knowledge or skill level is required; however, you must be able to shoot independently at all times. While I'll be there to help and provide advice as needed, it's essential for you to operate without continual assistance. When it comes to equipment, you don't need much. I suggest lenses of 50mm, 85mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, or similar. Ideally, your lens should have a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. As we'll be shooting in natural light, it's beneficial to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with a 2.8 aperture.
Where and how to get there
The location is situated in a place called Dongen, near the Belgium border and not too far from Germany. For instance, it's less than a 2.5-hour drive from Cologne. If you're flying in, you can land in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, or Eindhoven, and cover the remaining distance by train. From Amsterdam and Rotterdam, the train to Breda is available. From Eindhoven, you can journey to Tilburg. Additionally, there are several hotels I can recommend for anyone planning to stay overnight and participate on both days. Don't hesitate to ask if you need any information regarding travel possibilities.
