Fundamentals of Photography
John Greengo
learn from world-class photographers.
Beauty is an ever-shifting, ephemeral, and crucial element to capture when taking a successful portrait. Learn the art and science of photographing beauty straight from four of the best fashion and glamour photographers working today—Sue Bryce, Lara Jade, Emily Soto, and Lou Freeman. Through dynamic instruction, each of these world-renowned photographers will reveal the many skills and techniques that create their unique, unparalleled styles.
During a live mentoring session, Sue Bryce will push audience members to define their true purpose and set an actionable roadmap to make it a reality. Sue will also cover how to craft authentic marketing campaigns that resonate with women of all generations. Lara Jade and Emily Soto will reveal the choices that define their distinctive, award-winning styles, covering everything from lighting to retouching. Glamour photographer Lou Freeman will teach what women want to see in their portraits and walk you through the right questions to ask your clients.
The four photographers will then reconvene for a grand finale: six hours of posing education. Sue will teach her signature beauty and glamour poses, Emily will delve deep into creative posing techniques, Lara will cover fashion posing, and Lou will walk you through timeless boudoir poses.
This was a really enjoyable course, I love Sue Bryce and Lara Jade. Especially in models posing videos I not only had a laugh but learnt tiny small details that make a huge difference I never knew about or did not notice. However, there were a few times when the discussion is about shooting a smile but the camera shows Sue and Lara Jade covering the models so you cant actually see the models' face.
Sue is wonderful. Very inspiring. Thank you for the lesson
This was an amazing class, taught by four incredible instructors. The most enlightening part of Modern Women's Portraiture was seeing how four very different photographers very intentionally create their images, from conceptualization to actually interacting with the models. Seeing the shoots was extremely helpful because you get a great sense of how professional and directive a successful photographer must be to get the most out of the shoot, model, and photos. I learned something new from each of these ladies and feel so inspired to create after finishing this class. Thank you, Sue, Lara, Emily, and Lou for all that you have shared. Highly recommend this course!!!!
I LOVE LOU FREEMAN!!! She inspires me because it's about creativity. Thinking outside of the box. She's given me the confidence to push my creativity and to know my style.
My mom saw this course and i knew she knew i would instantly love it because i am a big fan of Lara Jade and Emily Sotos photography work...to my discovery i also found another gem photographer: Lindsay Adler...i loved her explanation of lighting and moods, and can't wait to try it. We are still beginners in shooting. I only worked on the other side of the camera. So either way whether you are a model, business owners or all in one, you can definetly take so much out of this course, very well taught! ofcourse you know what you need...and the great aspect of a module structure course, you can choose, which one are for you! Thank you creative live for this opportunity to learn from the pros! I wish i knew of this a year ago! ^_^ can't wait to implement!
What a wonderful human being is Sue. How honest and wonderful. Very inspiring.
I am a man, but what I learned about posing, getting along with your peers and associates was so helpful! On the second day, I purchased the course. I now have 4 courses and this one may have been the most inspiring and helpful one I have seen yet! Kudos to all four women for their insights, and to Creative Live for bringing us instructional videos like there.

Occasionally, things fall into place, and you end up with the kind of event that we just watched. It was marvelous to see these four amazing individuals contribute their own perspectives and content and to see them interact with one another. It was honest, brilliant and a must have to view many times over. One of the best courses on Creative Live and further evidence that Creative Live is going from strength, to strength and is worth every bit of our investment and time.
As a participant in the live audience, this is a fabulous course, from Sue Bryce's honesty in helping a person to look within themselves to find your own motivation, her wonderful real examples of posing women, to Lou Freeman's posing for boudoir this is a course that will help a person learn a craft and where they might want to go. I loved Lara Jade's vision of fashion and how she has arrived at such an early age. Emily Soto brings a different dimension to fashion photography that is inspiring, from her use of vintage cameras to her editing skills. This is a course for anyone wanting to learn about photographing women. I highly recommend. Thanks CreativeLive !!
Will buy this course loved the entire class it was one incredible course learned so much Emily soto is so sweet and Lou she rocks I definitely will add to my collection
This was such a great 3 days! Each one of those women are so inspiring in a different way. Sue Bryce is my absolute role model and it was a great experience to get to watch and listen to her. She makes her lessons relatable and very easy to understand and remember. So many small tips and tricks that will make a big impact on how I shoot as well as how I market! Thank you Sue. I had never heard of Lara Jade and Emily Soto before this started and I can say thank you to creativeLive for the opportunity to be inspired by two other amazing women in the photography business. The unique style and confidence they displayed was great to watch. I don't shoot fashion, but I was able to take good bits and pieces from it all. I am stepping out of my box... starting today! Thanks again to each of the women and cL for putting this all together. Kristin Campbell Journey Images, Alberta, Canada
I loved the contrast in style of all 4 of these unique talents from glamour, to high fashion, real women and fantasy. I learnt so much and its a great reference to go back to time and tine again.
WOW! I am so glad I was able to catch this segment of CreativeLIVE. I love how Lara showed us her technique for shooting, answered our burning questions, and showed us how she does a shoot. It was so informative!
