This isn’t a lecture. It’s a hands-on day in a working professional studio, learning from someone who’s been doing this for 15 years.
At Alt Studio we run small, intimate photography workshops covering Pin Up, Boudoir and Film Noir, three of the most distinctive and sought after styles in portrait photography.
You’ll leave with stunning portfolio images, real technical knowledge and the confidence to shoot this style yourself.
