There is a language that photographers and models speak. Do you know it? Are you ready for your close-up? Looking into the lens can be a confusing and scary experience if you don't know some basics guidelines. All actors, models, singers and dancers are expected to possess the skill of creating powerful, striking images in front of the camera.

Your photographer works hard to get a good picture, so you have to work harder. But how can one accomplish this? What should you do with your arms? Should you smile? Is it okay if you say something? How can one look "more natural" or give "that look" on command? What if you have to blink? What should you do when you get feedback? Once you tap into your greatest resource your contact sheets will be full of great shots. PICTURES THAT POP! is a lecture and workshop that includes everything a model needs to know to start working in front of the camera with style and confidence. Students will have the opportunity to work with photographer Bradley Vinson utilizing techniques that will make your pictures "jump" off the page getting the attention they deserve.
