I rate the workshop as one of the highlights of my career. It challenged me to examine who I am and why I make photographs. I don't think I can express the enthusiasm for photography it has renewed in me.

  The Sensuous Nude
exploring erotic portraiture


This program is for the experienced photographer who is ready to explore the most intimate side of portraiture, the sensuous nude. Learn how to build deep trust and respect with your subject—a vital skill to master in order for your subject to reveal glimpses of her ultimate beauty. Students are encouraged and supported to take the risks necessary to communicate honestly and directly with their subjects, building the rapport vital to the creation of such compelling images.

There will be in-depth portfolio reviews, demonstrations and practical time for students to create dramatic, intimate photographs with professional nude models. All students will have the chance to build their portfolios and expand their knowledge of erotic photography. We will also investigate the history of the nude portrait with an emphasis on the development of each student’s personal vision.

Rob Goldman has been photographing sensuous nude portraiture for over 10 years. His portraits have been exhibited, collected and published worldwide.
