Description
My Most Comprehensive Online Architecture Workshop
For the very first time, I’m offering an online workshop that brings together all of my expertise in architectural photography.
This workshop covers the full range of styles and techniques I use, including black-and-white, color, and creative effects. To provide you with as much value as possible, I’ve also added a third session for the first time, instead of the usual two. This makes it a truly unique workshop.
I have been creating architectural images for over 25 years and have continually experimented with and refined my approach. My practice has evolved over time, and new tools and plugins in Adobe Photoshop have allowed me to take my work to the next level.
This is the perfect opportunity to join what I promise will be an exceptional workshop.
SESSIONS:
June 14:
Black & White
This course introduces an advanced black-and-white architectural photography technique, developed and refined over several years to create images with a strong and distinctive visual impact.
All images are captured in daylight, without long exposures—visual effects (such as motion streaks) are created during post-production.
Beyond basic black-and-white conversion, you will learn to master light, contrast, and atmosphere through in-depth work with layers, masks, and selections. The goal is to achieve a balanced, realistic, and visually striking result.
Prerequisites: a good understanding of Adobe Photoshop (layers, masks, selections, smart objects).
