Portrait & Lighting Workshop – Saturday 14th March 2020

NOTE: This workshop has been postponed to a later date.

Last month the club announced a major focus during the first half of 2020 around developing our portrait photography skills. Jen Fawkes ran three very successful beginner portraiture workshops which helped build key skills around working with models. As previously announced, this month we are going to build on our model engagement skills while focusing on use of lighting.

On Saturday 14th March 2020, we have been fortunate to engage professional lighting specialist and portrait photographer Michael Marlborough from Kayell, who will lead us in a very special workshop event. Michael has also engaged four professional models to work with us on the day.

Members please refer to the information emailed out that includes the schedule for the day and how to book your place.

Waverley Antique Bazaar Outing – March 2020

This is an indoor shoot at an Antique Bazaar where we have permission to photograph items that are up for sale. The bazaar is in a HUGE warehouse full of items ranging from furniture, clothing, knickknacks, costumes, 60’s stuff and more. This is a great place to collect images for creative, composite work or for a still life composition.

Wednesday 4th March 2020
Meet at the front of the venue at 10am.
11A Aristoc Rd, Glen Waverley. Next door to the badminton centre.

Entering prints in competitions workshop

Next week we will be running a workshop/demonstration on how to mount prints for entering in club competitions.

Tuesday 25 February, 7:30pm, upstairs at Wadham House.

This is aimed at intermediate members or those that have never entered a print, but all are welcome.

I will demonstrate my technique for mounting a print, we can discuss various options and members will be able to try out the mat cutter.

If you are an intermediate member that has printed an image for the April comp (due the following week) then we could mount it. There is also a selection of pre-cut mats (lightly used) that members can have for their entries if they are suitable.

CANCELLED: City Night Walk

I have been monitoring the Bureau of Meteorology website closely over the past few days. Tomorrow’s forecast foreshadows possibly severe thunderstorms with heavy rainfall, gusty winds and possible large hail later in the day.

Not specifying how later is later, the decision has been made to cancel the City Walk Outing tomorrow evening.

This is a great disappointment, so to make the best of it we plan to repeat this outing at a time later in the year when the sun sets earlier. Then we can perhaps enjoys capturing some light trails as well!
