PPA Merit Class:

On Location Workshop & Evening Presentation with Fuzzy Duenkel 

1:30 PM - 5:30 PM - On Location Workshop with Fuzzy Deunkel

5:30 PM - 7:00 PM - Break for Dinner   

7:00 PM - 10:00 PM - Evening Presentation at Procam 

In this live shoot workshop, Fuzzy will show you how he creates custom portraits on location!  Yes, we are going on location. EVERY session is a new adventure. Each one presents new challenges and opportunities for something new and exciting.

Fuzzy is a master at lighting techniques similar to those used in the fashion/commercial industry but scaled down for the photographer who chooses to work without an assistant.  Fuzzy will extensively cover lighting theory and various light modifiers since total light control is essential for compelling images.

Fuzzy will also spend time covering selecting photo sites on location.  Site selection is particularly crucial for image design, posing inspiration and theme.  He’ll show how he uses ordinary locations to produce extraordinary results!

Fuzzy’s equipment choices are also keys to helping rather than hindering creativity.  Your tools need to contribute to the creative process, and not get in your way.  Each item much be portable, quick, and effective.  Fuzzy will show how his choices facilitate speed and creativity.

If on-location, and especially outdoor portraits are something you love, then this workshop is guaranteed to teach you key techniques and give you a fresh perspective.

*Registration includes both the day workshop and the evening presentation. No need to register for the evening program separately. Attendees have the option to bring a wide angle camera to record "pull-back" images of the workshop setups. This is a teach and learn event, not a portfolio builder.
