The first workshop for this year will be Saturday Feb 6 from 1.30pm until about 5.30 pm. At this stage am not 100% sure of the style for the day. Planning on a sports or lingerie theme and art nude for the other scenario. The format for the day will begin with a 30minute tuition on manual camera settings for those interested. Others can attend starting at 2pm. I will then give an introductory talk about the philosophy and direction tecniques behind my style of shooting.This will be followed by about 10 minutes where photographers will pair off and practice the tecniques by taking head and shoulder shots of each other. From here we will work with the model where I will start each scene by doing 5 minutes in front of the class. From here individual photographers can take the opportunity to do 5 mins in front of the class with my assistance and from here we will go into group practice sessions. Shots taken on the day can be used in your online or hard copy portfolios. To view dvd footage of past workshops or to read testimonials from past participants please visit the workshop section of my personal website www.leapoffaith.com.au Cost for the day will be $100. Please note that these days are open to all levels of experience. The workshop environment is very relaxed and supportive. www.leapoffaith.com.au

I am very passionate about photography and creativity and want to work more in sharing this passion. At this stage I am running my workshops every 3 weeks but would like more regular interaction with other creatives. To this end I am offering my services for one on one tuition on an appointment basis. Tuition will cover such things as manual camera settings, lighting techniques [studio and location], model directing from both an aesthetic and mood perspective and anything else people would like to cover. Sessions will be around 2-2.5 hours and the cost is $70. These are open to any level of experience and will be run in a very calm and relaxed way. Please feel free to bubblemail with any questions. Best Wishes Tony.

Amy in a relaxed poise from Tony Ryan’s Empowered Beauty Workshop (www.leapoffaith.com.au) in February. The netting added an extra element to the image and to my mind provided the mood for the shot.
Another shot of Amy from the Feb workshop. This was taken in the reflection of a window on the studio roof deck. We had 8 photograhers up there so it was a task to frame the shot without featuring everyone. Love the industrial feel of this image.
This is a group for people who are passionate about creativity and photography. Shots featured are selected from images taken by people attending the workshops. There will also be a range of instructional written pieces relating to a wide variety of photograhic skill sets. We are endeavouring to encourage people to be free with their photography and to truly created empowered images from their hearts. Whilst the workshops are currently in Melbourne only we are very open to running them anywhere in Australia and overseas.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOPS
Our workshops are run for any level of experience. They usually go for about 3 hours and have at least one model in attendance. Cost is $100 and everyone gets a chance to direct and photograph and the pace is very relaxed and casual. My main passion is to help encourage open and honest communication between photographers and their subjects. To really enjoy the process of being creative and to become more aware as to how our inner feelings and thoughts affect others. Please feel free to bubblemail me direct if you would like more information on the workshops. Also offering studio hire and personal tuition. Have also decided to run a regular Beginners Workshop on Wednesdays and alternate weekends. These will cover the basics of lighting, camera settings and posing and will cost $70 per person for 2 hours with class numbers limited to 4.
