Portrait Photography - Workshop
𝙋𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙩 𝙋𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙝𝙮 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙥 by @yasminahilal_
Join us for an immersive workshop on portrait photography, where we will explore the art of capturing human expression, identity, and storytelling through the lens. This hands-on session is designed for photographers of all levels who want to refine their skills in lighting, composition, and directing subjects to create compelling and meaningful portraits.
What You’ll Learn:
* Understanding natural and artificial lighting for portraits
* Composition techniques to enhance storytelling
* Directing and engaging with subjects to capture authentic emotions
* The importance of imperfections and raw moments in portraiture
Through practical exercises, live demonstrations, and constructive feedback, participants will develop a deeper understanding of how to create striking portraits that go beyond aesthetics to convey emotion and narrative. Whether you are interested in editorial, documentary, or fine art portraiture, this workshop will equip you with the tools to bring your vision to life.
@yasminahilal_ received her BA in Visual Media Arts, with a minor in Photography, from Emerson College. While there, she experimented heavily in the dark room, observing alternative techniques to scanning, printing, and manipulating images.
The result is a body of work that asks the viewer to linger a little longer and move through aspects of the piece. Like a snake, her art moves through visual and emotional landscapes that are both variable and static.
Yasmina Hilal has exhibited her works in group exhibitions, including A Complex Embodiment (Los Angeles, 2021), The Chemistry of Feeling (Dubai, 2021), The Cutting Studios Annual Exhibition (Doha, 2022), Dear Moon (Beirut, 2022), Solo Exhibition: I See Me In You at MENA Art Fair (Brussels, 2023), The Age of Dystopia at Dalloul Art Foundation (Beirut, 2024), and The Material Woman at Soho Revue (London, 2024).
