Sassy, sensual and sexy are the ONLY three words to describe the adventure that lies ahead in this course. In four weeks, through a combination of exciting lighting and Photoshop lessons, you will be creating some very sassy photographs of your kids, sensual photographs of your friends, lover or spouse and sexy photographs of the ‘guys and gals next door’! Unlike fashion photography, which places its emphasis on the wardrobe or products being sold, glamour photography places the emphasis on the person him/herself. In this course you will learn how to create ‘glamour’ lighting as well as the right ‘glamour’ pose, both of which are essential to bring out the glamour which all of us possess. In addition, you will also learn some extremely valuable post-production tips with PhotoShop where more often than not, the subtlest changes can make the biggest difference in success or failure.
No doubt about it, Glamour photography has more to do with creating a glamorous look than having a glamorous model and the simplicity of my lessons along with my personal attention on your assignments will help you realize your goal of creating stunning glamour images right inside your own home.
Course Requirement: basic knowledge of Photoshop and of your camera.
This course is designed not only for photographers who want to learn the basics of glamour, it is also a fun course for photographers who like to take people photographs and want to learn how to make them look better through the proper use of lighting techniques and jaw-dropping Photoshop post production effects.

I am always seeking perfection in my attempt to tell a story in just one frame. As a man, I never really had much interest in reading text; to me the images that illustrate an article or book are the only important thing to focus on. Perhaps Mother Nature sought to compensate for my dyslexia by blessing me with a greater visual imagination.
As a viewer, I love to see how other photographers interpret reality, offering us their unique perspective and point of view to arouse our human curiosity and help us all to develop our creativity by using our imagination.
As an artist, I pay as much attention as possible to details, lighting, colors and texture and include the environment, where the subject of my photograph lives within the frame. I love using my wide-angle lens; I like to make a statement by enlarging a detail in my imagery by deforming the size of objects with this lens, making them appear larger than they really are. It is like underlining a sentence in a book, making it stronger, bolder.
As a photographer, I am obsessed with the idea of being able to tell a full story in one frame only. Too often our minds are influenced by what the narrator or the journalist is telling us; I want individual viewer to be less passive and able to create his or her own vision of reality. That‘s when I feel my mission has been accomplished, because my task is reporting the truth to viewers and at the same time leaving them enough space and freedom to create their own story through their imagination, with my imagery.
