The most significant paintings in history contain invaluable lessons for us photographers, if we just know where to look. In this workshop, Chris brings the art of Rembrandt and Caravaggio to life! You’ll learn the history of two of the most significant painters in history, how you can draw inspiration from their work, analyze and recreate images based on classic techniques. Master chiaroscuro and learn to paint with light!
With the help of professional models, authentic and couture costumes, and some of the world’s greatest hair and makeup artists, you will have the opportunity to create a series of stunning images!
What you’ll learn:
Lighting: Specific modifiers, tools and setups to emulate the look
Styling: Sourcing, recreating authentic looks and finding creative solutions
Posing: Gesture, expression, and what makes a pose “painterly”
Lens choice: seeing the image in a way closer to the painters’ eye
The last part of the day will show you some quick and effective post-processing techniques to show you how to bring out the polish in these images including raw processing, color grading, shaping light and more.
