Thanks also to our model, Anna Bonnefoy, who was brave enough to endure the inclement weather for the outdoor afternoon shoot.

The workshop gave those who attended an understanding of the basic principles of nude photography, including lighting principles, and the control of light and exposure, as well as the ability to transfer skills to other subjects.
