World-renowned photographer and educator, Laurie Klein, will lead you through the art and techniques of photographing the female form in the natural landscape.  Each day as we photograph in a variety of landscapes we will concentrate on pre-visualizing, posing, and relationship-building between you and your models who are vulnerable subjects in nature. Laurie will concentrate on helping you identify and develop your authentic personal style. There will also be daily critiques, and one on one time with Laurie. Post-production and workflow will be covered.

This workshop is for infrared, Black & White, and Color photographers. No film processing is available, however.
