This is not a casual meetup. It is a guided, educational production experience.

08How shooting works

• Photographers rotate through each set in small groups
• Each participant gets dedicated time to shoot within the workshop structure
• The instructor explains the setup, then guides refinement as you shoot
• Models are directed, but photographers are encouraged to practice direction too
