Special Guest Model & Posing Coach
Joining us is Guetcha, who is also traveling from Los Angeles for this workshop.
Guetcha is an experienced professional fashion model whose work has appeared in Vogue, The New Yorker, and commercial campaigns with brands and artists including Ray-Ban, Beyoncé, Travis Scott, and more.
She'll be our live portrait model during the workshop while sharing practical posing guidance to help photographers learn how to direct subjects naturally, create flattering poses, and build confidence when working with people in front of the camera.
Having an experienced editorial and commercial model available throughout the workshop gives attendees the opportunity to practice with someone who understands posing, movement, and professional collaboration.
