Are you ready to create stunning fine-art with your fashion shoots? Join renowned fine-art and fashion photographer Miss Aniela as she creates a standalone bestselling art piece with a fashion model shot on location. In an unprecedented feat in CreativeLive history, "Swan Lake," the image created by Miss Aniela during this class became (to her amazement) one of her bestselling fine-art pieces over the following decade, as well as an iconic book cover. Watch in meticulous detail how she planned, shot and edited it!
Miss Aniela will:
- Take you step by step through a location photo shoot
- Show both lo-fi and high-production budget approaches to a fashion set-up
- Take you on set at The Ruins ballroom in Seattle, WA, US to watch the meticulous shooting and post-production that went into Miss Aniela's bestselling Surreal Fashion piece "Swan Lake"
- Share her insight into the business of fashion photography and fine-art photography, and hear from the stylist's point of view too
After reflecting on the shoot and reviewing the raw images, Miss Aniela will walk you through her compositing process and how she incorporated stock photography into the model's dress to transform it into a timeless work of art. You will also learn how to choose images that appeal to the stylists, editors, and commercial clients. Miss Aniela will reveal her own professional journey, explaining how she turned her Flickr stream of amateur self-portraits into a thriving commercial and fine-art photography career.

I find this class truly inspiring and fascinating. To me, it was not so much the parts of photography, but all the thoughts behind it she talks about. The thoughts, the planning, all the what, where and how questions you can/should ask yourself as a photographer. Especially about your own journey and what you want to do with your photography. This class made me realise that I am actually not on the right track as where to my dreams are, but more on a track of one idea taking the next and then time just passes by. Miss Aniela has made me stop and reconsider what photography is for me and why it is important to me. And to me, knowing what is in your heart and why you are doing what you are, is just as important to know as the skills you need to take good pictures. I think there are many other classes here on Creative Live that get more into the technical stuff. But what is good photography skills if you don't know what you want to say with it? It is true, she talks a lot. But I enjoyed every word she said. I find there are a deeper meaning in all she says, and I am actually really sad its over. I could go on listening to her for hours :D

I LOVED this course!!! Very informative, I thoroughly enjoyed it!!! I realize I probably won't get to shoot the 'hi-fi' shoots, especially in such grandiose locations, but I loved looking in, behind the scenes, and what all goes into these shoots. Miss Aniela was a fantastic instructor. Thank you for this course!
