Dresses, Docs & Portrait Photography – Llandudno Photographic Academy Evening

Perfect your portrait photography at this on location shoot at the Welshot Photographic Academy Evening. Our Models, wearing Dresses and Docs, and using the beautiful Llandudno Bay in North Wales as their backdrop, will be working hard to help you capture some stunning portraiture, using both off camera flash and natural, ambient lighting. We guarantee fun, frolics and frivolity as they pose for the camera, before and after the sun sets on the horizon, then, we’ve got a chance to do some low-light portraiture too! Think portraits and piers, swishy dresses, stomping boots and biker jackets. From posed portraits to those candid shots – this portrait photography session will help you learn a thing or three about lighting, hone your already gained skills or just help you to enhance your photographic portfolio. Whatever your reason for attending, we know you will have a lot of fun with like-minded photographers in a safe, non-competitive and fun environment. We even provide you with a light buffet supper.
