Portrait Photography With Richard Dumas

Richard Dumas is not a portraitist, but a photographer. In contrast with another photographer named Richard (Avedon, to be exact), Dumas is not a socialite or a star because he shoots celebrities or fashion photographer. Learn and improve your way of portraying people by mastering the relationship with the subject, being more confident and creating evocative and meaningful portraits. This workshop will also focus on how to best capture a portrait with natural light. Most of all, the workshop with Richard Dumas will help you discover what is your very own personal path to portrait photography.

From June 12 to June 15, 2024 in Paris (France). More information on this workshop here.
