If you want to learn more about taking portraits, posing, lighting, etc. this is the workshop for you!   Jim Rigsby will be leading a 3-hour workshop on Saturday May 30th from 11:00 - 2:00.   We will have 3 professional models from Knoxville and Chattanooga to work with us.  Two gorgeous ladies and a good looking guy for the lady photographers.  They’re comfortable in front of the camera and can pose and work the angles.   You’re going to feel like you just walked into a NY photo shoot!!!

Jim will cover and provide instruction for studio lighting, natural lighting, and photographing women and men.   There will be three different stations set up with the three models.

The workshop will be in the former Hibbert Davis Coffee shop at 240 E Main Street in Kingsport.   It’s across the street from the Train station and beside the old bus depot.   We have a lot to cover in 3 hours so please come ready to start at 11:00.
