Last chance to register for my Insightful Portrait workshop this weekend at IS 183 Art School of the Berkshires.<\/a><\/p>\n

“When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I’d like to know them.\u00a0 Anyone I know I photograph. ” – Annie Leibovitz<\/em><\/p>\n

The quote above by Annie Leibovitz goes to the heart of what we’ll be after in this workshop: to photograph someone in a meaningful and true way.\u00a0 The portrait reveals just as much about the subject matter as it does about the photographer.\u00a0 Furthermore what comes into play is the viewer’s response to the portrait.\u00a0 A complex\u00a0interplay of connections indeed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In this intensive one-weekend workshop we will focus on the elements of what makes an insightful portrait. We will consider both the technical aspects such as lenses, f-stops and lighting as well as the artistic ones such as composition and capturing the mood of the moment. Posed versus candid portraiture will be regarded as well as the challenges of photographing people we know or strangers.<\/p>\n

We will look for inspiration to contemporary and historical photographers, both fine-art and commercial:\u00a0 Susan Paulsen, Jessica Backhaus, Diane Arbus, Susan Paulsen, Annie Leibovitz, Matt Mahurin, Deana Lawson and Alec Soth, among others.<\/p>\n
