Have you ever wanted to capture stunning photographs at night? This week we’re all about night photography, working with light sources and experimenting with long exposures in different ways. This tutorial will be split into 2 parts: theory and practical so remember to bring your cameras for experimentation! If you plan on staying for the practical element of the tutorial bringing a light source could be worthwhile (no sparklers or lighters due to fire hazard).

* Bring your: camera, light source (i.e. Phone, or torch) & tripod (if you have one – if not, you may be able to borrow the clubs)

Open to UNSW PhotoClub members only. Please remember to bring your membership cards for identification!

You may have heard about our ‘Model Workshops’, or our recent one held at the beautiful Watsons Bay. This time round will be our first on campus shoot of the year with more availabilty for those who missed out last time. However it is still on a First-come-First-serve basis! Visit our website to preview model shoots from the past year and recently at Watsons Bay.

What is the Model Workshop about?
In short, our model workshops allow you to work in teams and experience photoshoots outdoors. Each person in the team will take turns in controlling light with reflector, being the creative director (guiding poses), and photographer. Of course we won’t throw you in the cold, our Execs will guide you through, providing tips and feedback during the session. You don’t need to have a SLR, the club is happy to lend you our Nikon D3000s for the session (provide your own SD card). Please request SLR prior to session if you need one (express interest in the form). This is definitely a good experience if you want to improve your skills in portraiture and get an insight into fashion photography and photos from the day could contribute to your portfolio.

This is NOT a free Event!
There are costs to be shared in order to achieve the best results and have already been heavily subsidised by the club and ARC. You are paying for a Professional Model, Hair Stylist,  Make Up Artist, and Wardrobe Stylist.

• $25 ARC PhotoClub Members
• $27.50 Non-ARC PhotoClub Members

Each session will generally run as follows:

• 6 Photographers per session
• Duration of approx 4 hours
• 3 location changes
• Individial and partnership photography time with model at each location (time varies depending on schedule during the day)
• During session – feedback from each other and Execs

Some simple Terms & Conditions

You will be required to arrive at UNSW Kensington Campus through your own means of transport.

NO SNIPING ALLOWED– Unless during group shooting. Sniping means taking photos from afar or nearby while photographers are having one-to-one time with the model. If sniping occurs, members will be given a first warning, subsequent infringements will result in removal from the photoshoot and possibly barred from attending future model photoshoots.

Group shooting isn’t the main objective of the workshop! While you wait for your turn, you are expected to decide on how to pose your model, where to go or getting feedback from Execs etc.

Members will be required to submit copies of all photos on the day, afterwards you are free to take them home, edit them and submit your chosen 15. By partaking in this photo shoot as a photographer you retain copyright of the photographs, however credit will be specified upon publishing and your name will be included i.e. (Your Name) Photography for (Model Name). The Model/stylists/PhotoClub is allowed limited use of the photos for the purpose of promotional material etc.

OKAY. I want to do this! How do I sign up?

By registering, you are committing to attend, and pay for the session.
We will notify you when all the sessions have filled up whether you have made it in or not. If successful, we will ask you to deposit/netbank the cost to a bank account and you will be notified about further details of the workshop. We have over 300 members, and there are 18 slots available. From previous shoots in the past, workshop allocations generally fill out within 24 hours of announcement. (Even within the hour!)
