SUMMARY:Photography Masterclass with Tony Northrup in NY
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Saturday, December 5, from 12:00 to 4:00 PM at FD Photo Studio in Long Island City. Three professional studios are open just for this masterclass:



LIC 1: A large daylight studio with a white cyc wall and big west-facing windows

















LIC 2: A daylight studio with a wood platform

















LIC 4: A blackout studio with RGB lighting

















Four hours. Three studios. Natural light, flash, and RGB color. One ticket.



For $345, you get what a photographer would normally have to organize across three separate shoots:




Four hours of instruction from Tony Northrup and Kash, together in every studio



Natural light and flash portraits on a white cyc wall



Window-lit portraits on a wood platform set



Creative color in a blackout studio with RGB lighting



Two professional models for all four hours



Hands-on shooting in groups of 10, with real-time feedback and reproducible workflows




On top of that, one attendee will win a Godox iM30 Mini Flash on the day.



TICKETS




Early Bird: $299 (just 7 tickets at this price)



General Admission: $345




Limited to 20 attendees. Once we sell out, we're not adding seats.



HOW THE EVENT WORKS



All 20 attendees move through the three studios together with Tony, Kash and both models. Every studio follows the same format:



30 minutes of demonstration and teaching



45 minutes of guided shooting in two groups of 10, each with an instructor and a model



Check-in opens at 11:30 AM




12:00–1:15 PM: LIC 1, natural light and flash on the white cyc



1:15–2:30 PM: LIC 2, the daylight studio with the wood platform



2:30–4:00 PM: LIC 4, the blackout RGB studio, followed by Q&A and wrap-up




By the end of the afternoon, you'll have photographed both models in three very different studios and learned from both Tony and Kash.



WHAT YOU WILL LEARN



Studio LIC 1: Natural light and flash (white cyc wall, west-facing windows)




Reading and shaping window light for flattering portraits



One-light mastery: building professional portraits with a single modifier and thoughtful placement



Light control: adding reflectors and hair lights, making a white backdrop go dark



Live tethered demonstration with shots streaming to iPad for real-time instruction




Studio LIC 2: Daylight interior (wood platform, west-facing windows)




Blending window light with flash



Composition and negative space using the set



Directing models and posing micro-adjustments




Studio LIC 4: Blackout studio with RGB lighting




Low-light shooting with RGB light, balancing highlights and shadow detail



Color theory using colored light to shift mood



Artistic shutter drag: combining long exposure with flash for light trails
