Patrick Ciatto

Portrait Lighting and Posing (Masterclass)

Patrick Ciatto Portrait Lighting and Posing People buy portraits based upon two things: "How does my body look?" and "How is my expression?" - and it's not as easy as it seems to position people pleasingly to camera in natural looking ways that don't look posed.
In this session, Patrick will show you how to do it right. You will learn about facial analysis, body decisions, camera angles, body positions, portrait lighting patterns and even more - how to work with your subjects so they give you their honest great expressions. Learn how to "have conversations with your camera" and make that connection you need for the perfect portrait.

Photo Quote: In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre. - Brassai
