FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY MASTERCLASS WITH MARCEL BOLDÚ
An artistic journey that impacted their evolution as photographers.
A two-day photography workshop designed to combine an artist's eye and a chef's perspective and translate it into vibrant and impactful images.
Marcel brought students into his studio in Miami and shared everything he knows about food photography and telling stories through images.
Without holding back any secrets, he openly presented his top tips and tricks, most of them self-taught from his own experiences, and completely changed the way they approach photography.
Most importantly, students embarked on a process of self-discovery where they unearthed their limitless abilities to bring their concepts and ideas to life.
Marcel teaches his philosophy: how to develop concepts, work with subjects and compositions, control lighting and angles, and breathe life into images in post-production, taking his students to see the world through his eyes while adding their own personal touch.
