Few months back I reconnected with my friend Alan who used to run a photo store near my old place. He used to do all my colour films for me, and I processed and printed his Black and whites for him and his clients.
A great reunion and from it was born the idea of teaching again. I have to add a quick bit of history here. I ran a language school in Toronto with My wife Tomoko for almost 4 years and we had a great run while it lasted and I have missed teaching ever since. So needless to say that the opportunity to teach again, and the subject being photography realllllly got my attention.
4 months and a dozen workshops later and we are rolling well. I always believe that offering quality is the most important thing for a client, be it a photo client or a workshop participant. We hire and use talented, experienced models, makeup artists, fashion and hairstylists. We aim to provide educational, fun and interesting workshops while keeping the costs reasonable.
Our next gig is at a Luxury hotel on Jan 22-23rd with three published glam models in an executive Bi-level suite that offers some really wonderful sets to shoot in. We have a fantastic team of makeup artists and hairstylists that are joining us as well. It promises to be one hell of a day
Take a look at their link and if you have time and are in Toronto, join us.
Cheers and thanks for stopping by. I will have more images up soon from workshops and other personal series I am finishing.
