OUR APPROACH +

HOW TO PREPARE

A HANDS-ON APPROACH

We believe that the real value in our workshop is your extensive, hands on involvement in the creative process. We’re there to help you every step of the way, but we encourage you to step out of your comfort zone. We begin by helping you set up your equipment (if needed), then it’s time to develop the concept, begin propping, navigate lighting, work through the best composition, practically plate or place and finally you take the shot. We work along side you, mentoring you and sharing what’s needed to help you capture your desired image. We also offer one- on-one workshops if you’re interested.

WORKSHOP PREPARATION

You can prepare as little or as much as you like. We’ve had participants who arrive
on the day with their iPhone ready to shoot whatever is available. Others bring a
range of their products to photograph and are searching for a specific aesthetic.
We’ve had workshopper’s arrive with a mood board in hand and a specific project to shoot and those who attend with food and ingredients, prepared to capture specific content. We really don’t mind how you approach your time with us. The aim is for you to learn to shoot the content that’s relevant to you regardless of you skill level or equipment.

WHAT TO BRING

• Your camera or smart phone (don’t forget chargers, batteries and memory cards). Joe will be on-hand to assist with camera operation.

• Related camera equipment (if you have it) e.g. tripod, laptop, tethering lead, etc.

• Products you’d like to shoot (if relevant)

DEMONSTRATION:

• We run through a brief example of a typical commercial editorial food shoot, tethering to a computer under artificial light.

• Then we will shoot using natural/available light.

• We share our extensive knowledge on styling basics to help tell your story

  through composition and light. Without cohesive collaboration between styling, composition and light, an image suffers.
