“Take the Mystery Out of Outdoor Portraiture” by Greg Schurman. Learn the fundamentals of posing small and large groups as well as the art of lighting with fill flash, reflectors, diffusers and balancing natural light in any location. Greg will demonstrate the ease of getting all those great outdoor captures whether it be a large family or individuals.

Greg Schurman was named BC Photographer of the Year by the Professional Photographers of BC many times. He received numerous National Accreditations from the Professional Photographers of Canada and has won PPOC’s Commercial Photographer of the Year award. He earned the top award in Commercial, Portrait, and Weddings in the National Fuji Awards and he has represented Canada in the World Photographic Cup.
