We are revitilizing this group with a whole new direction. We will still focus on traditional image editing, but we will be adding a new avenue of image editing to our digital workflow, known as, "Hybrid Imaging". If you have not heard of it, that's OK. We'll tell you all about it. If you are already involved in hybrid imaging, come and share your knowledge and experiences with the rest of the group! After all, we are all here to improve our skills and photography technique.

Studio photography I believe is frequently overlooked, underrated, and misunderstood by many photographers. I'm hoping to make this more comfortable and useful thru shoots focusing on aspects of planning, styling, and lighting the model shot. Sharing practical setups and artistic composition ideas is what Fine Art/Glam Foto Shooters is all about. This meetup group welcomes photographers of many levels but there is a camera requirement. Yours must have a hot shoe capable of tripping studio ligh …

And unfortunately it was the truth in order to capture great images you need great models and staff to enhance them then combined with a great location and artist and creative jucies it happens... We love photography and all it has given us and we would like to give back.. And the best way was to f …

This group was inspired by the hundreds of workshops I have given all over the US. Photographers were asking for ways to build their portfolios with high quality images and unique concepts. They were running out of ideas / did not have ideas, could not find models, locations or sets and were hitting a wall. After all a photography web-site filled with photos of your dog or your own children might not say "professional" in a way you want it to. This is what we will do here. The instructors will a …
