Schwarzweiß-Portraits leben von Licht, Ausdruck und den kleinen Details. In diesem Workshop zeigt dir Thomas Adorff, wie du mit gezielter Lichtsetzung, bewusster Bildgestaltung und dem Spiel aus Kontrasten charakterstarke Portraits mit Tiefe und Atmosphäre erschaffst.
Das lernst du im Workshop
- Wie du Licht und Schatten gezielt für Schwarzweiß-Portraits einsetzt
- Wie Kontraste, Strukturen und Details die Bildwirkung verstärken
- Wie du mit Available Light und Studioblitz kreativ arbeitest
- Wie unterschiedliche Brennweiten die Wirkung eines Portraits verändern
- Wie Makro-Objektive spannende Portraitdetails sichtbar machen
- Wie Ausdruck, Perspektive und Komposition emotionale Bilder erzeugen
Gemeinsam mit einem Model setzt ihr unterschiedliche Portraitsituationen direkt im Studio um und experimentiert mit Licht, Perspektive und Bildwirkung – von klassischen Portraits bis hin zu detailreichen Nahaufnahmen.
Dein Ziel nach dem Workshop
Am Ende des Workshops hast du ein besseres Verständnis für Schwarzweiß-Portraitfotografie entwickelt und kannst Licht, Kontraste und Details gezielt für ausdrucksstarke Bilder einsetzen.
