Special Presentation in NYC by Photographer Matthew Jordan Smith-1/21/2009
I just came across this special free event being held on January 21, 2009. I’ve had an opportunity to hear Matthew Jordan Smith speak at the PhotoPlus Expo in NYC and I’ve seen his fantastic work in his book, Sepia Dreams: A Celebration of Black Achievement Through Words and Images
Below is the text describing the event (from Foto Care’s website):
Join us on January 21st for a special presentation by fashion photographer Matthew Jordan Smith at Splashlight Studios. You will have the opportunity to take part in a hands-on learning experience to improve your knowledge of lighting techniques and image workflow using Phase One Capture One and Microsoft Expression Media.
Matthew will share beauty lighting techniques used for clients such as Olay and Pantene. He will also share fashion tips he has learned shooting editorials such as those seen in American Vogue, Brides Magazine, People and Essence, and in his appearances on America’s Next Top Model. See how a Pro sets up the shot and uses workflow software to inspire creativity and create stunning images.
