About this Event
Let’s be honest—not every shoot location is dreamy. Sometimes it’s a stairwell. Sometimes it’s a dodgy car park with one sad tree. Sometimes it’s a cluttered office foyer where you’re asked to “make magic happen.”
In this energising, hands-on Superclass, Paul Wilkinson will show you how to turn even the most uninspiring locations into compelling, beautiful portraits.
You’ll follow Paul through the process of assessing a space, finding usable light, identifying clean backdrops (or faking them!), and crafting strong compositions. Working with minimal kit—just a camera, a light (maybe), and your creative brain—Paul will demonstrate how to shoot with confidence and flair, even when the conditions are far from ideal.
This isn’t just theory—you’ll be shooting, experimenting, and refining your approach under Paul’s guidance. You’ll leave with a set of repeatable strategies you can apply to any job: fast thinking, creative problem-solving, and a portfolio that proves you can create magic anywhere.
Bring: your camera, a speedlight (if you have one), a smile, and a willingness to see ugly spaces with fresh eyes.
