I had the pleasure of sitting in on a class that my friend Wayne (Ordeal) teaches at the Vancouver Photo Workshops; Creative Lighting for Fashion and Editorial Portraiture. Interesting to watch someone else light something/one for a change. One tends to get into a groove with their own lighting, it can be inspirational to sit in on another photographer's set. The workshop covered various lighting techniques for both in-studio and on-location situations. Each student was afforded the opportunity to work with professional models, make up artists, assistants, etc. Great value for the price of admission!

Vancouver Photo Workshops runs quite a few different types of courses suitable for budding amateurs and seasoned veterans alike. Something for everyone, you might say. I've been asked to teach a business seminar; licensing, copyright, estimating and basic marketing strategy. Tentative for the last weekend of November. If you're thinking of becoming a real-live working photographer, get your business savvy wired tight or you'll get eaten alive.
