Who Should Attend?

Our workshops at The Production Studio are designed for photographers looking to expand their skills or build their portfolios in a professional setting. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced shooter, these sessions offer hands-on learning with top-tier talent from leading agencies.

Studio photography can feel intimidating, but our workshops provide a relaxed environment where you can observe, ask questions, and learn by doing. There’s nothing like hands on experience.

With a variety of styles and themes, each session ensures participants have the opportunity to shoot one-on-one with models, refine their techniques, and connect with fellow photographers and enthusiasts.

​ What you should bring:

• A DSLR/Mirrorless camera

• Fully Charged Battery

• Freshly Formatted Memory Card(s)

• General Lenses: 24-70mm, 24-105mm and 70-200mm If you have a macro lens, 50mm or 85mm please bring it along. It really depends on the type of workshop

• Pocket Wizards (if you have your own, otherwise one will be provided for you)

• Bring along a list of shots you’d like to achieve or posing ideas. It can help to ensure that you get the perfect image.

Workshop Details:

• ​Arrival: Upon arrival, use the intercom to call unit 205 for entry. Please aim to arrive 15 minutes early to settle in before the session begins.

• Social Interaction: Feel free to connect with the workshop host and fellow photographers. Keep conversations lighthearted and professional to foster a creative and welcoming environment.

• Photoshoot Session: Each workshop runs for 3 hours, with participants working one-on-one with the model across 4-5 different sets. The goal is to capture a few standout images from each setup that you can proudly showcase on your website and social media.

• Model Release: A non-commercial model release, signed by the model, will be provided to each photographer. Photos and videos taken during the workshop can be used for personal promotional purposes only, including portfolios, websites, and print media such as postcards.
