Portrait photography workshop – flash and natural light

People are one of the most common subjects to photograph. We can photograph people in a lot of different ways – documentary style, we can create art or fashion photos, business or lifestyle portraits or just everyday family pictures. Each genre has a different purpose which drives the creative process behind taking the photograph.
