There are a number of basic elements to consider that are common to indoor and outdoor portraiture, such as how the subject fills the frame, what background to use, and what props, expressions and poses are appropriate, but when shooting outdoors there are other important elements to consider as well.
On our outdoor portraiture course you will have the opportunity to photograph our model in a variety of locations utilising the techniques that you have been taught. | | Contact: JULIA REID | Tel: 01433 670262 | enquiries@highpeakphotography.co.uk |
