March 9, 2026 – Portrait Photography Workshop

Would you like to learn how to make professional looking photographic head shots or have one made for you ? This program is presented by Don Hinds, Professional Photographer.

A professional looking head shot involves proper lighting and posing.

Bring your camera, it will need to have a hot shoe. If you don’t have a camera with a hot shoe, I will use my camera and send the image to you, just print your Email address on a piece of paper for me.

You will need to manually set your camera. I would recommend that you bring a lens in the 85mm range, although we can work with most focal lengths. I will bring strobe lighting, a tripod, and a light meter.

Remember to dress in the clothes as to how you want to present yourself and think about grooming, haircut and make-up. Practice smiling in a mirror or the expression that you prefer.

Uses of head shots are for business promotion, credibility and to create a strong first impression. They can be used for business cards, websites, social media, Christmas cards, book dust covers, newspaper promotion etc.

You are welcome to come and watch and learn or to participate in the process.
