For new photographers who want to attend our workshop
• Learn to use lighting like the pros.
• We're here to share our tips to beginning photographers.
• Ever wonder how Drew and I light our models without the background being blown out on a sunny day? Speed lights not cutting it huh? We will give you hands on experience in using affordable and portable mono strobe lights, beauty dish/Octobox and other equipment. Try Before You Buy.
• I will be demonstrating Alien Bees Cyber Commander.
• You'll be so impressed with your images after the event that you'll be ready to order the same lighting equipment we use.
• I'll show you different light modifiers and their uses. Octobox, beauty dish and grids will be covered. I'll discuss the difference between the silver BD and white BD. Why i use the BD over an Octobox at the beach or desert.
• Circular Polarizer(CP)and Neutral Density(ND) filters will be discussed and how it will improve your images when shooting outdoors or at the beach. I recommend Hoya brand. CP, ND4
• Once you attend our workshop, you'll be able to build up your port with beautiful models quickly.
• Students can take the remainder of day to shoot models.

Preperations:
• To make use of the workshop, Pocket Wizards or Cyber Syncs are recommended. You can rent the PW's from Calumet or Samy's if needed. If the Pocket Wizards are unavailable to rent, you may rent Pocket Wizards or Cyber Syncs from Drew and I. Limited availability, don't assume we'll have enough triggers.
• Students should have prior knowledge on how to adjust their camera in manual mode. You'll need to know how to adjust aperture, shutter speed and ISO.
• I recommend you purchase a CP, ND or both that i listed above. Purchase the appropriate diameter for your lens.
• Adjust your camera LCD brightness setting. Take a picture of something and try to closely match it to your monitor screen. So what you see on your camera will look about the same to what is on your computer monitor. I also recommend calibrating your monitor using Spyder 3 or something similar.


Don't care about the workshop?
• For photographers who don't care about the workshop, they can shoot the available models for the group shoot portion. (Please note that the workshop will be using Channel 1 on the Pocket Wizards. On the CyberSyncs we'll reserve Channel 9 also, if needed)
• Shoot beautiful models all day long.
• Please be courteous, if you're going to set up your lighting equipment at a awesome location, to either share or move locations every 1/2 hour.
• The location can be windy at times so please bring sand bags for your light stands.

Sounds good to me.  Can't wait to see the model line up.  I am addicted to D&K's events.

As the models are always awesome! I don't need to see who the models are! Just sign me up, and I will be there with food, and drinks, Seven Dwarfs / Vultures STYLE!!!

Norco? Eagerly awaiting info on location venue.

Sign up soon as we have limited spaces for this event. This will be the first time I will have a big event at my sister's house so we will only allow 30 photogs. This will be a much smaller event than our usual 40-60 photog turn out.

Believe me, we will SOLD OUT quick on this one so send your deposit soon.

Dang, 12 spots already taken.

Am I seeing this correctly?? Did the price go up $10?

Deposit sent. There was the Beverly Hills shoot which was more expensive as well.

Count me in. I'll be sending my deposit soon. So close to home.

the sister's house? damn, didn't think you would share the secret spot! soo many different spots to shoot in that house, i got lost numerous times.

Damn, wish i could make this one. That's my duty weekend.
