Strike a Pose! In Progress Offers Hands On Photography Workshop in Crookston

Strike A Pose

with In Progress Artist Tomas Leal 

Saturday & Sunday / April 25th & 26th

Strike a Pose is a hands-on photography workshop focused on using light to shape mood, depth, and intensity in portraiture led by In Progress artist and one time resident of Crookston - Tomas Leal.

Participants will explore techniques such as directional lighting, high-contrast setups, and shadow control to create bold, expressive images. Through guided demonstrations and practice, photographers will learn how to transform simple setups into striking, dramatic portraits that emphasize emotion, texture, and form.
