Window Light Tutorial with Rae Stanaway

Would any inexperienced club members like a one on one window light workshop on Sunday 5th December at my house.  You would need to bring one or two people to photograph and I will talk you through window light.  You do not need a pretty girl, just bring a friend.  You then setup your own photos and poses so you can use them in competition.  I plan on doing 45min sessions  from 8.15am to 12.15 so please ring me on 3284 4870 to book your time, if you would like to come.  Rae Stanaway
