About the workshop
First workshop for 2027! It will be at the amazing Bologaro Loft in Frankfurt, Germany. This time with model Yoana Nikolova! We have worked together many times and you can see a lot of photos from past workshops here. She is always great to work with!
On this workshop we will shoot style from We will shoot mostly nude and lingerie. It will be natural light only and I will teach from my own experience of doing model photography since 2006. To ensure quality shooting time there are only five participants each day. The workshop will be in English and the model also speaks English.
Individual coaching
This is available on Friday January 15th. There are two slots available, 10.00-13.00 and 14.00-17.00. An individual coaching is tailored for your needs and it includes a lot more shooing time than a workshop. Great opportunity to get more deep knowledge and to make sure you get a lot of great photos of an amazing model with my guidance!

Knowledge and equipment
To participate there is no special knowledge or skill level needed other than knowing about the basic camera settings such as iso, aperture, shutter speed, white balance etc. My way of working and explaining is very easy to understand. I can promise great results even if you have nerver worked a model before.
In terms of equipment it is not that much needed. I recommend 50mm or 85mm or 24-70mm or 70-200mm or similar lenses. Ideally you should have a lens with a focal length between 50mm and less than 100mm. Since we will shoot natural light it is an advantage to have a prime lens with a large maximum aperture or a zoom lens with 2.8 aperture.
Location
