Mexico - Aztec Cultural Photography Workshop

+ More details

Description

A unique photography experience. Create incredible photos of Aztec dancers and warriors in their awe-inspiring traditional dress.

Travel photography often focuses on landscapes and cityscapes, but a country’s true heritage is its people. JP has established strong ties with the local indigenous communities and this 3 Day Workshop (November 11th - 13th 2020) has been designed to help photographers looking to capture that human element that makes Mexico unique.

1. Three half-day photoshoots with Azteca (or Mexica as they called in Mexico) models.
2. Photograph in gorgeous pre-scouted locations. From lush jungle to secluded black sand beaches.
3. Expert tuition with JP on photography, lighting, and posing.
4. Work with a full lighting kit: strobe-lights, wireless triggers, reflectors and a gorgeous 60” softboxes.
5. Learn Lightroom and Photoshop post-processing techniques to make your photos really stand out.
6. Experience a side of Mexican culture most tourists never see.
7. Semi-private workshops - never more than 3 guests!

  • Our photography group thoroughly enjoyed this presentation. JS's images were amazing and really told a story. He explained his ideas and processes in a clear and concise manner. It took us out of our usual realm of Irish landscapes to see some stunning Mexican cultural images
