NEW: Basic Photography for Fashion Designer
with professional
photographer Tracy Aiguier
This workshop is designed
to give the upcoming fashion designer the skills and
understanding necessary to execute a successful fashion
photo shoot, be it on their own or when hiring a team of
professionals. The class will discuss the various trends
and styles of fashion photography, basic photographic
techniques used, and communicating with models, makeup
artists, hair stylists, and photographers to achieve the
photos that best show off their designs.
The class will spend time
on lighting and posing demonstrations, both in the
studio and on location, giving the designer the
opportunity to play the part of the photographer as well
as the model. Working with the instructor’s guidance,
all participants will be required to put together their
very own photo shoot, which will then be critiqued at
the final review class.
A graduate of the Art
Institute of Boston, Tracy Aiguier has been shooting
fashion and portraits in the Boston area for close to 20
years. She has shot national catalogs, covers and
editorial spreads for both local and national magazines,
CD covers, as well as look books, advertising and
websites for many local fashion designers, and
retailers.
