About Project Fashion Shoot Course
Good fashion photography involves the merger of portraiture, style, and mise-en-scène with the proper utilization of light. Students in this course study portraiture and light as they experiment with concept and style. A designer provides the wardrobe, and we work as a team to develop the art direction, lighting design, styling, sets, and other key elements of production. The class also includes lectures on historical and contemporary topics in fashion photography and an introduction to narrative themes, as well as student critiques and collaborative exercises. This course is limited to 12 students.
This course is offered on-site, July 19-27, 2025 and meets weekly on Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM ET.
