Dec 2011 Collingwood Art Center Group Shoot
Posted by Marc | Filed under 2011, Group Shoots, Model Shoots
On December 17, 2011 I attended a group shoot at the Collingwood Arts Center. This facility encompasses a former convent, the Gerber House, and a theater, all connected physically over time and now serving as a unique artists residency and space for creative expression of all kinds. (Detailed info on the Collingwood Arts Center web site.) The CAC Photography Collective has been putting on group shoots at this facility for approximately 7 years. Like most group shoots, models and photographers schedule time with one another however they see fit and use the spaces within the facility as backdrop. Like the DEAC events that I’ve attended, the CAC shoots provide a broad range of interesting spaces to photograph within, which get’s the creative juices flowing in order to take full advantage of them. This being my first time at a CAC shoot, I was unfamiliar with the place and therefore had to do a lot of improvisation. Fortunately, that’s something I enjoy and tend to be good at! I shot with five models using only the natural light filtering through windows and some wardrobe that I’ve been anxious to use. Enjoy the results!
