Hollywood Lighting in the Hurrell Style a Weekend Workshop with Bobbi Lane & Lee Varis at the Los Angeles Center for Photography, Sept 30 – Oct 2, 2022

The Style of Hollywood Glamour in the 1930's and 40's

Join Bobbi Lane and Lee Varis to explore the world of Hollywood glamour, and learn the photographic style of George Hurrell. Bobbi & Lee will teach you how to achieve the look of the classic Hollywood glamour images of the 1930’s & 40’s using traditional and modern lighting tools and techniques.

George Hurrell rented Bobbi Lane's studio for the last 10 years of his life, and this provided Bobbi with an unprecedented opportunity to learn from the master himself—today Bobbi is able to share this knowledge with the participants in a weekend intensive photography workshop...

Work with experience models to re-create the glamour photography of a bygone era!

Participants have hands-on experience on the set with personal guidance from Bobbi & Lee to guarantee success...

Work with old fashioned "hot" lights, as well as modern studio flash to get the highly stylized look of classic Hollywood

Workshop participants work with several models in different setups over the two shooting days, Saturday and Sunday.

Male and female models with period appropriate wardrobe help to re-create the look of the 30's and 40's

Bobbi & Lee teach and demonstrate the lighting fundamentals that are critical to achieving the dramatic look of the classic Hollywood glamour style...

Learn to control the light to craft the desired look

This style can be applied to more contemporary imagery as well

Upon successful completion of this workshop, participants will leave with a foundation of technical and artistic skills necessary to achieve the look of classic Hollywood glamour photography. Topics covered include:

Basics of studio photo workflow
Lighting theory and electronic flash basics
Basic lighting setups
Advanced lighting concepts
Styling and posing for glamour

We start by analyzing the master, and identifying classic images to replicate in the studio

Images don't always have to be glamorous to be effective - we mostly work with actors to tell a story

Lee Varis will present various techniques that can be used to turn anyone into a Hollywood glamour subject...
