All links in this post should be assumed NSFW for artistic nude images.

For those who are looking for a comprehensive approach to studio photography lighting taught by a master photographer, but unable to pay $600 and more for workshop events, these are the workshops for you.

Upcoming dates for the Adam Chilson Photography Workshops series at D. M. Gremlin Studios in Long Beach, CA:

Introductory Lighting Techniques

November 1, 2009 - 10am-7pm, $180 - Now Open for Registration
October 18, 2009 - SOLD OUT

This workshop is the precursor to Advanced Lighting Techniques, which will be offered again in early 2010.

Instructor: Adam Chilson, MM#19554
MUA: Lisa Berczel, MM#47292

Workshop instructor Adam Chilson (MM#19554) creates his jaw-dropping imagery through the lens, using little and often zero Photoshop or digital post-editing, and teaches from this perspective.

The studio lighting workshop series focuses on controlled lighting techniques for portrait and artistic nude photography, along with set-building elements to create eye-catching images. Each full-day workshop combines demonstration and discussion of lighting setups with hands-on practice, and multiple shooting sets with fine art models.

Workshops include full makeup and styling by Lisa Berczel (Battledress Paint-n-Body, MM#47292) to complete the polished look of the images shot within the class.

Models are TBA - announcement to follow in late September.

All workshops limited to eight photographers, registration by advance payment.
