Join Hunt’s Photo Educator and Professional Wedding and Portrait Photographer Rebecca Cee for another entry in our series of portrait workshops where we will be emphasizing posing couples!
This class is designed for photographers who want to learn how to pose couples, and put their subjects at ease. Rebecca teaches modern techniques for posing couples: Rather than static posing, she will emphasize how to work with movement and casual posing to create a more natural look!
For this workshop, we will be photographing outside in natural light at the Arnold Arboretum in Boston. If you’d like to learn a little bit about when to use flash, we are also happy to teach that in the workshop, but the focus will primarily be on shooting in natural light. We will spend the bulk of the day photographing couples and discussing different settings, starting in the mid-afternoon and working into the golden hour.
