About this event

  • 3 hours

5th Annual! Due to the tremendous success of last years sunset beach shoot, we are back again! The stream from Duck Lake, (just north of Muskegon) flows into Lake Michigan and creates a large pond on the beach which is great for reflections of people at sunset. (see photo) This beach is a hidden jewel along Michigan's Gold Coast. Our workshop/seminar/model shoot, features at least 4 top female models this year. You will learn how to photograph people at sunset using ambient light, reflectors and fill flash. "Subtractive Lighting" will be demonstrated, which is the secret to getting professional results in normally difficult situations. After the event, we will meet at a local restaurant to review our photos and learn even more, (optional). This workshop is open to beginners and pros alike and is limited to the first 15 photographers; First come, first served. Our sponsor is Gloss Metal Prints, the country's foremost printer/lab for the best custom metal prints. Two prizes will be awarded in our random drawing. Everyone will get discounts from our lab sponsor.

Cost: Just $80.00, ($60.00 early bird until May 15). 90% of your fee will go to our models in order to attract top talent. Pay just a $20 deposit now and the balance at the door. No tipping the models is expected. Several past attendees have made an RSVP already, so don't delay your deposit! LIMITED TO THE FIRST 15 PHOTOGRAPHERS!
