Food Photography Workshop

The West Coast Photographic Society has organised a Food Photography Workshop. The details are as follows:

Date: Saturday 12 July 2014
Time: 14:00-17:00
Venue: Mondvol Padstal (4km along the Trekoskraal road outside Vredenburg in the Paternoster direction)
Presenter:  Le Roux Malan from Photocasions Photography 
Cost: R80 for members, R120 for non-members. Snacks are included, and cakes and drinks are available from Mondvol at own cost.
RSVP: Cassi on cassi@icon.co.za
The workshop will have a theoretical component (presentation), and a practical one (plenty of hands-on, try-it-yourself stuff). And then we get to eat the props. Except for the flowers. Unless you really want to.

PLEASE NOTE: We can accommodate only about 15 people, so please RSVP soon to reserve your place. The cut-off date for bookings is Friday 4 July. 

Please bring any/all of these, if possible:  camera, lenses, camera manual, tripod, flashes, reflectors.
