Location: Arboretum, Prince of Wales Drive, Ottawa, ON

Time/Date: Sat, Aug 4, 2012 · 1:00 PM to 4:30 PM EDT


Photographers …

Learn to pose the novice model. The goal is to have an experienced coach pass on the tips of the trade to more up and coming models. You get to listen in and learn what works as the models are being coached. Then we followup the 45 minute How-To session with a hands-on shoot where you’ll work with the models who have just been trained.

It’s nice to work with a model who has a repertoire of 1000 poses and all you do is go click but in most cases the model looks at you and asks: What do I do? This session is designed to help you bridge that gap.

In addition to the fees to cover the coach’s time, we ask that you provide at least 2 high rez images of each model you work with.

Below is a map of the area just east of the traffic circle on Prince of Wales
We’ll meet in the grass just in front of the small Parking area indicated by the White Arrow
Note parking is limited so you may end up walking from another parking area.
If you want to car pool – post a note in the comments.
