The Russian Soul med Joyce Tenneson

Workshopen vil foregå på engelsk:

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
We kick-off this workshop with a guided tour at one of the oldest and largest museums in the world, The Hermitage Museum. The workshop wraps with a excursion to Pavlovsk, before our Final Show.

​We will draw our inspiration from the locations we visit, historical sites, the city of Peter, and the people we meet on our quest to capture The Russian Soul. Joyce Tenneson, who is known for the depth of her own iconic portraits will be our photographic mentor throughout the entire workshop.

​Joyce started her carrier with self-portraits, before she ventured into portraits of others and has since been voted one of America’s most interesting portrayers of the human character.

On this workshop we will seek to create portraits that go beyond the surface. “I want to allow others to reveal and celebrate aspects of themselves that are usually hidden”

​We will be working with a hair and make-up team in St Petersburg and spend about 4 hours on location each day. Since we are working with daylight, we spend the first part of the day shooting on location. Our lecture and image critique time will take place in the evenings. Joyce will share with the students how she prepares and sets up a shoot, styling tips, lighting tips, and the way she works with her subjects to put them at ease, revealing their inner selves.

​NORDphotography will book local models/ dancers to model for this workshop. We will have a max of 10 students on this workshop.

The workshop starts on October 1ST at 1 PM with a guided tour at The Hermitage Museum. Our welcome dinner will be served at our hotel around 7PM. Followed by welcome lecture and information about the itinerary for the week. The workshop wraps after breakfast on the 7TH of October.
