9:00 AM to 12:00 PM: The Four Pillars of Portraiture

In this morning session, Sarah will teach the foundations of how she creates her fine art and fashion portraits, based on the FOUR PILLARS:

  • Foundations
  • Structure
  • Mood
  • Connection

These four pillars encompass lighting, color theory, posing, and composition, drawing upon traditional fine art, fashion, and cinema. Sarah will break them down and demonstrate them in a memorable way, ensuring you can apply them in your own work.

12:00 PM – 01:30 PM: Lunch Break

01:30 PM – 05:00 PM: Fine Art Portrait Shoot & Image Critiques

Sarah will start by creating a beautiful fine art-style portrait with a model and styling. She will show her planning process using mood boards, how she carefully selects lighting and color palettes, and how she poses the models to achieve the desired result, with some unexpected detours!

In the later part of the afternoon, Sarah will review some of the images submitted for critique, providing her unique perspective as an international print competition judge and multi-award winner.


7:00 PM – 9:00 PM: Shooting Bays with Models

Practice what you learned during the day by photographing models at the shooting bays. Sarah will be assisting and helping you personally. Do NOT miss this opportunity!

Sunday, August 11th, 2024

9:00 AM to 12:00 PM: Soft Light Editorial & Dramatic Contrast Shoots

During the morning live shoot, Sarah will demonstrate how she creates a soft, high-key fashion look adaptable for female portraits, maternity, or seniors. Then, she'll change things up to create high-impact portraits styled with dramatic lighting, creating mood with contrast, shapes, and drama.

12:00 PM – 01:30 PM: Lunch Break

01:30 PM – 05:00 PM: Edit it, Retouch it, Print it

In this final session, Sarah will hold NOTHING back as she shows you her editing process, detailed fine art style retouching, and file preparation for final printing. Sarah will provide in-depth training in both Lightroom and Photoshop, ensuring you walk away with expert-level knowledge in file and colour management for outstanding prints of your work, every time.
