shooting fashion with weronika mamot - workshop
Our fashion photography workshop with celebrated local fashion photographer and Profoto ambassador Weronika Mamot, was such a fantastic event!
Throughout the session, Weronika guided attendees through four distinct fashion lighting setups (plus variations), sharing the thought process behind each approach and demonstrated how lighting can completely transform the mood and impact of an image.
Weronika had warned us beforehand of her speed in setting up, and she absolutely hammered home her point by smashing out the stunning lighting setups with precision 😁
Using a range of Profoto gear including d3’s and a beauty dish, magnum reflector and umbrellas + the Pmi Gear Smoke Ninja and with support by Diamonds Camera and CR Kennedy Imaging , Weronika generously offered a behind-the-scenes look into her creative workflow including:
– pre-production planning and shoot preparation
– colour theory
– styling decisions
– directing and posing models with purpose.
What made the workshop so valuable was the opportunity to watch a photographer who has truly mastered her craft work in real time, explaining not just what she does, but why she does it.
A huge thank you to Weronika for sharing her knowledge and experience with our community. And thank you to all the attendees on the night!
We hope to run more events like this across the year and look forward to supporting the professional development of South Australia’s photographic community!
