Beauty and the Brawn

I’ve signed up two models for this weekend’s “Effective Outdoor Portraiture” workshop at Up On High Studio, Fremantle. Sophie L and Frank I are about as different as chalk and cheese, and not only because she’s a gal and he’s a bloke. Sophie is tall, svelte, with a stylish, continental look. Frank is, well, he’s...

Wedding Photography Essentials

Greg Perry presented “Wedding Photography Essentials” as part of the Spring Workshops Programme on Sunday. That man is amazing!
