Workshop dates: August 7, 2008 to August 11, 2008.
Tuition begins at $2,000US - all inclusive.
The seminar is going to be pretty wild. We have permission to do nudes in most places and glamor skimpy stuff at the forts etc. Photos of some of the locations will be going up soon.
The essentials are:
Its all inclusive once you arrive, from pickup to drop off at the airport. First rate accommodations. We even have our own cooks along.
The model ratio is 2 to one and it is setup so each photographer will be photographing each model at least once. Plus there is the option of doing some extra one on one work.
The groups are no more than 8 photographers max to an instructor. Plus the photographers rotate through the instructors twice through the workshop, Each instructor is incredibly skilled but has a totally different style and approach from the other instructors.
We are doing the nudes on location, not just inside the Villas. There is a beach, cove, coral juts, old English cloisters, stone gazebos, two swimming pools with bridges and grotto water falls, balconies, hammocks, it just goes on. Plus the glamor locations of the Queens water falls, an old fort with a rooftop access view of the city.
There is the book deal, everyone attending can sign on for being an equal participant in a book, actually 3 versions of it, a soft cover, hard cover and a limited edition leather cover. They also get an equal share of royalties from the book. It has a very effective marketing program in place as well.
There are the Kick Start It early options where they can book models or instructors for some personal one on one work.
Then there is the Vacation option. We have arranged for special pricing on the units if students want to come early or stay longer.
We are pretty excited about it. I hope your members take an interest in attending this workshop. It is limited to three groups of only 8 photographers.
