Throughout the history of photography, portraitists have looked to fashion for inspiration, and fashion has turned to the camera for edification. Both disciplines begin with an idea about how to represent the model in space.

Elements of wardrobe, makeup, attitude, and personal style add dimensions to an image that are both coded and revealed. In this class, students explore the nexus of fashion and portraiture by examining our inspiration as photographers and our desires as viewers. The class will include weekly lighting workshops, slide presentations on the history of fashion photography, and student critiques- with particular attention to decisions made regarding lighting, art direction, and narrative themes.

Course Level / Prerequisite: Intermediate: You are familiar with a camera, whether film or digital. You understand aperture, shutter speed, exposure, white balance, histograms, and how to control focus. You are comfortable editing and processing your images. You may want to learn how to utilize your camera in a more thoughtful and articulate way, or learn more about lighting or how to utilize theoretical concepts in relation to your portfolio of work.
