Unleashing the power of Continuous Lighting
The lighting game is changing — fast. More photographers are switching to LED-based continuous lighting, and for good reason. It’s time to step up, adapt, and harness this powerful, What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (WYSIWYG) approach to creating stunning visuals.
No more guessing. No more surprises. Just pure, intuitive lighting control to bring your vision to life. The future of light is constant — are you ready to master it?
Session 1 09:00 AM – Lighting the Nude with Continuous Lights. High key. Low key. Full control. This workshop is your deep dive into lighting nudes with the raw clarity of continuous LED light. Learn to shape light like a pro — from setup to modifiers to angles — and shoot two bold, expressive sets with Mia (formerly Anna), our most iconic and fearless muse. 2025’s been weird, but some things stay essential — and Mia is one of them. Let’s push boundaries, frame the human form, and make something unforgettable.
Session 2 11:30 AM – Fashion Nudes – A Rare Session with La Bella – This one’s different. We’re working with La Bella, a striking model with rich, dark skin tone — the kind of beauty that commands light, shadow, and serious attention to detail. For the first time, we’re unleashing a lighting setup we’ve rarely used in our workshops: a large softbox on a boom, angled high to sculpt the body with stunning coverage, contrast, and definition. Most studios didn’t have the ceiling height to pull this off — now we do. This is fashion nude photography like you’ve never seen it — bold, unapologetic, and beautifully lit.
02:00 to 03:00 pm: Of course, we’ll take a breather — a little social time, drink-in-hand time, maybe even lunch-if-your-soul-isn’t-full-of-art-yet time. Because great lighting’s important… but so is a good laugh and a bite between masterpieces.
Session 3 03:00 PM – Fitness & Extreme posing – Meet Bree, a powerhouse of feminine strength making her debut in the world of fine art nude modelling. Sculpted, striking, and unapologetically athletic, Bree redefines what it means to be both strong and beautifully feminine. While fit female bodies are often misread as too masculine, Bree flips that narrative with grace and power. We’ll be capturing her in bold, contrast-heavy lighting using my favorite strip softboxes — perfect for carving out muscle tone and form. Add in some intense, sculptural poses (with a few surprises), and you’ve got a session that’s anything but ordinary.
Session 4 – Bondage Nudes – Pushing Boundaries
We’re stepping into uncharted territory here, and it’s going to be intense. This session explores the raw, aesthetic beauty of bondage paraphernalia and accessories, set against the drama of vibrant, colored lighting in a shadowy studio. It’s dark, provocative, and unapologetically bold. Our muse for this session is none other than Vicky Art Model, a model who embodies the complexity and power this shoot demands. Rest assured, we’re focusing on artistic expression — no heavy erotica, no explicit close-ups. Get ready — this isn’t just photography, it’s art that pushes limits and redefines boundaries.
Tickets & Pricing: We’re offering Full Day Tickets at a special price of AU$ 419 + GST until ANZAC Day — that’s a great saving compared to the regular price of AU$ 499 + GST after ANZAC Day! If you’re interested in individual sessions, tickets are available for AU$ 149 + GST, but trust us — the Full Day Ticket offers way more value and could sell out fast. So, grab yours now before they’re gone! You won’t want to miss out on this opportunity.
