Elevation Calgary

Elevate your creative photography

Calgary, Alberta

May 6th 2023

Join Nikon Ambassador and multi-award-winning photographer Sean LeBlanc for a behind-the-scenes look at how to create masterful, bold and creative wedding and lifestyle portraits. Sean will share his workflow to create bold, dramatic photographs from initial inspiration to clicking the shutter button. Learn how to creatively work with both natural light and off-camera flash, find killer compositions and elicit natural-looking moments from your clients. This intensive class will be taught in two parts: 1) An interactive presentation by Sean that will provide an in-depth look into the creative process – see, compose and create. 2) An intensive live demonstration of all the elements Sean discussed in his presentation.
