Jonny Edward Visual Storyteller

Hey, friends! I am delighted to share that I am producing an incredible one-day lighting intensive|workshop at the end of the month!

This is for anyone seeking to elevate their lighting while connecting more deeply with their creativity and art. We will work with constant, strobe, and natural light to produce a compelling collection of powerful portraits with some truly fantastic models.

Prepare to learn and create a lot, have fun, and spend time with an incredible group of like-minded photographers. It's worth noting that half of the spots are already filled from my newsletter announcement and those on the waiting list.

Some info from the registration page…
"As photographers, we communicate through contrast, the poetic interplay of light and shadow. Stories, scenes, and sets come to life through the power and magic of illumination, as the humanity of our subjects and the essence of our creative vision are carved out of or etched into the darkness...

Join me in Denver on March 28th at my spectacular, world-class studio for an inspiring and immersive adventure into the art and alchemy of lighting design. I will deconstruct my unique process and approach to lighting in a way that prioritizes feel over formula, empowering attendees to create from a place of unconstrained expressiveness."

This set of portraits is replete with a staggering abundance of elegance, poise, personality, and refined power. While the frames are quite minimalistic, they are far from simple and represent a wholehearted focus on the subject, the sublime ✨

We created this collection during the workshop I co-hosted and produced with one of my favorite humans and artists, at his spectacular studio in LA. Collectively, Aaron, the attendees, and yours truly spent two incredible days together deconstructing approach and technique in the context of producing soulful portraits that celebrate essence and individuality.

I will treasure the moments shared, and the memories made always. I am grateful for the opportunity to connect and collab with like-minded artists who live and create from a place and space of love, gratitude, passion, and purpose.

Thank you, Juliette, for spending a splendidly chaotic day with all of us and for sharing your presence, persona, and energy with the collective. It was an honor and joy to photograph you, and I very much look forward to the next time!

The first set, where Juliette is in black, is one of the scenes I created with and lit with - whereas the second set, in the chartreuse dress, is one of the scenes that Aaron created with and lit with - although I fiddled with the set and light a bit as we do. :D

I love the exploration of identity and emotionality and the range of personhood we captured throughout. Juliette is wonderfully emotive, which is highly evident in the way I truly feel when I look at these portraits. Such a joy!

I am so damn grateful.

Aaron and I are flirting with one more workshop later this year, so let us know if you’re interested! Also, I am producing a solo workshop at my amazing studio in Denver on June 7-8, in case you are interested in taking your art, lighting, and self-confidence as a creative to the next level...

Love you all! We’re in this together!

Art is life; life is art.
