We start together at 9.00 am with a short get-to-know-you session. While the models are being prepared for the workshop in the make-up room, we start with a practice-oriented theory session. Here I will also show you how I select and edit my pictures. Then we go straight into practice. We'll have a lunch break from 12 noon to around 1 p.m., where we'll use the opportunity to exchange ideas together and strengthen ourselves for the second practical block. Everyone will have the opportunity to create unique images with Celina - Miss Germany 2024. Whether in the first or second block.
Together we want to create natural and authentic images in black and white. It is important to create a basic understanding of photography with available light / natural light.
Communication with the model is an essential building block for establishing trust with the model and getting exceptional photos. In my workshop, I will show you how to do this very well.
I will show you how to work with light and shadow, lines and flexible set design on location to create the most authentic images possible. It's also about harmony and reduction of the image scene. Direct the viewer's gaze to the model without making it appear unnatural.
I will accompany you during the workshop and will always be there for you and give you valuable tips.
This course is therefore limited to a maximum of 6 participants.
For the workshop, you will need a digital SLR or system camera including fast fixed focal length lenses. Optimal focal lengths here are between 35 and 85 mm or open telephoto zooms from 24 to 70 mm.
If the workshop is canceled due to underbooking or through the fault of the workshop leader or the location, the workshop fee will be refunded or can be rebooked for another workshop. If a model cancels due to the fault of the model, the workshop leader will replace the model with an equivalent model.
About the photographer
Arne Claussen's black and white works are of a high photographic standard and are inspiring. Close to people - quiet moments with a lot of authenticity. His pictures tell stories and have been published here - Cirque du Soleil, DigitalPhoto, SWR, Women's Health, among others.
He shares his knowledge of authentic people photography not only in workshops, but also as a lecturer at the Stuttgart Media University. His courses are always fully booked after a short time.
The particularly empathetic and likeable man from Herrenberg has been photographing people since 2018. Primarily in black and white - but of course also in color. His focus is on beauty and fashion photography, business photography and working with artists and musicians.

About our models
