Model Content Day Hosts

Morgen

Morgen is a Muse Creative

Greetings beloveds 🪽

I’m Morgen, a professional model, creative director, and the founder of Morgen is a Muse Creative.

As a model, I specialize in editorial, beauty, and lingerie work. Through my agency, I lead campaign-level photoshoots and creative direction for influencers and brands, often traveling to design immersive editorial experiences on location. I also curate and strategize the visual direction for multi-faceted creatives and professional brands, from holistic beauty and goddess yoga to med spas.

As a certified embodiment guide, I blend practical posing techniques with intuitive movement to help women feel confident and magnetic in front of the camera.

Britney

Shots Fired Photo Stylings

Hey there! I’m Britney, the creative spark behind Shots Fired Photostyling.

I’ve spent the past 7 years photographing everything from editorial campaigns in LA to confidence-boosting boudoir and headshots here in North Carolina. As a lifelong hype woman, I love helping models feel comfortable, powerful, and ready to shine.

In this workshop, I’m sharing all my best tips for building a strong model-photographer connection-how to communicate, monetary exchange between photographer/model based on skill set, how to stay safe on set, and finally, help you walk away with digitals that stand out.

Whether you’re just starting out or leveling up your portfolio, I’m here to guide you, cheer you on, and capture images that feel 100% you.

 

Things to Know

Spaces Assigned
Each photographer will be provided with a space that is 8 ft x 8 ft within the studio to build their own set for capturing images. The location of each set will be pre-assigned but please be sure to reach out to us if you have any special requests that we should be aware of. If you have a set that will require a more extensive setup, hanging installations, or will require pipe and drape frames, please be sure to reach out to let us know as soon as possible!

We will have staff available to assist. (If you are unavailable on Sunday and need to bring something in early, please don’t hesitate to reach out to let us know!)

Sharing Images
One of the goals of this workshop is to help bridge the gap in providing a better understanding of the value of a model’s hard work and skill in the industry. To ensure an equal balance, photographers attending are required to submit at least 5 images of each model to any of the workshop hosts withing 20 days to ensure distribution of images to models.

Take your photography to the next level and gain an in-depth view of how mastering lighting can bring a new level of depth and emotion to your imagery.

From in-studio to outdoor conditions, understanding the core foundations of lighting and how its impacts your captures is just a small part of what this amazing workshop will uncover.

From nuanced gradiants of light and various lighting patterns, discover ways to dramatically elevate your portraiture, transforming visuals from flatness to multi-layered incorporations of depth. Learn how to effectively match lighting modifiers with specific lighting sources and explore the essential concepts involved in low, mid and high key lighting.

Tailored with a portion of demonstration instruction, followed by hands-on learning with models, all lighting equipment, backdrops and modifiers will be provided to ensure you gain the experience needed to feel comfortable with a diverse range of lighting equipment.
