Fashion Photography by Araman Studio
The workshop is an in-depth introduction to fashion photography, aimed at helping you understand what goes into the making of a top international level fashion shoot.
Working with a professional team, you will learn about the ingredients that go into producing and executing such a shoot: from concept creation to choosing, recruiting and directing talent; from light shaping tools to reviewing work by world-class photographers.
In addition, you will be getting the scoop on the business side of the industry; especially invaluable are the insights on the local Middle East markets. Araman will also discuss his personal experience and his business model.
