Nino Batista | Episode 12 – Glamour Workshop
His recent resume includes working for Fstoppers since 2014, a senior writer for Shutter Magazine, speaking at Shutterfest in 2016, 2017, and 2018, and a featured instructor for CreativeLive, as well as his own events and workshops around the country!
During this interview, Mike and Nino talk in-depth about the workshops that Nino teaches around the country. He is currently on a workshop tour with model Josie Fox from July until December of 2018.
Nino talks a bit about how his hands on workshop work. He says that his workshops are not just about taking someone from “beginner” to “professional” with his instructions, he tries to make sure that no matter what the level of the students are, that they all leave with the tools necessary to capture amazing photographs.
He is also an expert in retouching pictures. In the beginning, he notes that he taught retouching during his workshop. He found that a better way to teach retouching is actually to wait until after the workshop, create a video of retouching the images taken during the workshop, and sending it to the attendees. He’s found that this is more effective.
Another tip that Nino gives is to crouch and get down. He says that one thing that a lot of photographers forget is that the act of simply changing the height of your camera while shooting can change the angles of your pictures and improve the pictures drastically.
