The Original Nude, with IMSirReal, aka Bryon Paul McCartney
The shapes and curves of the human figure provide a unique and endless landscape for the photographer’s lens to explore. Has it all been done before? Acclaimed fine art nude photographer Bryon Paul McCartney believes everyone has the possibility to create nudes that are original and uniquely their own. Creating an original photographic style starts with developing confidence in one’s own ability to make critical decisions, and this comes through learning and experience. Bryon will focus on the many facets of taking a comprehensive approach to professional fine art photography. Daily activities will center on working with models and dancers in the studio and in natural settings. Students will take on several assignments and be responsible for delivering a portfolio of images by the end of the week.
