The “off-camera flash workshop” held on January 19th was presented by IACC members Ron Trink, Linda Treleaven, Fred Rushworth, and Terri Ross. Each presenter provided topic background material to the group then presided over a “mini-studio” where participants had the opportunity to apply what they had learned. Topics included understanding flash basics, on-camera flash vs off-camera flash, dumb and smart radio triggers as well as an introduction to light modifiers and posing. Godox flash units and radio triggers were very kindly provided for the use of the participants by Karl Domning of illuminatils.com. Karl was also on hand for the duration of the workshop to assist members with technical questions relating to camera and flash settings."

On the evening of January 31st, Mufty Mathewson hosted a Novice Night Photography lesson from her home. Eight Workshop participants learned about Exposure Bias, and how to set a mood. Mufty also taught us how to create a star effect from lights using F22 stops. Participants drew inspiration from displays set up around her home, such as candles, flowers, flowers with bubbles, lamps and statues.
The third assignment was catching headlights using long exposure time. Although Groat Road Bridge was closed for construction, this did not stop us from testing night shots on the balcony. Overall, it was a wonderful evening in a fun and relaxed space, with individuals mingling and helping one another gain more camera knowledge. (article courtesy Kathleen Tyrrell) |

May 25, 2019: Cyanotype Image Processing
The cyanotype or ‘blue print’ is one of photography’s oldest printing methods. Discovered by Sir John Herschel in 1842, three years after the announcement of the discovery of photography, the cyanotype provides permanent images in an elegant assortment of blue values. Reminiscent of the alchemists of yesteryear you can use a negative image on acetate, drawing on tracing paper, or even real objects, to create a stunning image without a camera.

Workshop details
In this one day posing workshop, we will explore the building blocks of classic posing. By understanding the time-tested fundamentals of what makes a person look their best in a photograph, you will be able to adapt these techniques to a variety of photographic styles. These techniques can be effectively applied to almost any portrait style including classic head shots, glamour photos, engagement and wedding portraits, families, corporate and editorial portraits, and so much more…
We begin with the most important aspects of individual posing by exploring seated and standing poses, different angles, body language and communication skills. Throughout the day will build upon the individual pose to create couples and group poses that will both flatter the subjects and express the style of photography that the artist wished to convey.
This workshop will be very “hands on” combining instruction, demonstration and numerous exercises where the participants will pose and photograph several images. Participants should bring their camera equipment with them.
All participants must bring:
