Course Synopsis
During 4 full days you will master all of the necessary skills to start, improve and excel your model photography.
Our exclusive program is based on a perfectly balanced learning system combining impactful “nuts & bolts” theory, actionable demonstrations and of course, many guided and solo shooting situations.
A TRULY UNIQUE COURSE: LEARN & SHOOT
By popular demand, Dan Hostettler makes his successful and proven private teaching approach accessible to a small group of photographers once again.
You will get the same quality-level education like you would join our VIP one-on-one course!
Please note:
This is a workshop, helping you to follow our concepts and ideas and providing you with knowledge and inspiration. Learning on the fly while shooting, so to speak. We kindly ask you to follow the schedule, our team’s assignments and respect the group.
This course is NOT a model shootout. It won’t be possible for the participants to change light settings, light direction/position, styling aspects etc.
If you would like to have a full control, please book our VIP workshop or one of Dan´s private workshops.
Thank you for respecting these principles.
