Typography and Styling Workshop

a full-day workshop with Dietlind Wolf / Hamburg
and guest speaker Elina Frumerman / San Francisco


 
using typography in styling and storytelling

spend a day with us exploring various methods of marrying type and image
our workshop will focus on three specific approaches:

1. creating typography: using props to create letterforms in a photograph
2. letterforms as objects: using cut typography to create images and compositions
3. layering with type: adding type over an image to change a photograph's mood or meaning 
(including a quick tutorial on digital image scanning and manipulation)

elina frumerman is an amazing artist, working with type and pictures with such an ease and beauty.
her books are eye treasures. see some of her spectacular work, attached below.

we are so much looking forward to sharing what we love, to inspire you and expand the way you approach your own work.

our workshop will be led in English and be held in the berkentienhouse, 
a beautiful house in lübeck known for centuries for handcrafts in glass.

poetic photography workshop on gotland

june 2017

led by dietlind wolf










photos : dietlind wolf
location : gotland/ sweden

poetic photography,

"how to see with the skin"

a photography and exploration retreat in gotland / sweden
based on the development of your senses

led by dietlind wolf


poetic photography touches.

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” – “The Little Prince”, Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“the taste of an apple … lies in the contact of the fruit with the palate, not in the fruit itself…” – Jorge Luís Borges

with our senses we go into contact with the world,
and in this special contact is hidden the uniqueness of our perception,
how each of us, distinctively, encounters our environment.

poetic photography explores this experience.
through what Juhani Pallasmaa calls “the eyes of the skin”,
the photographer is inspired to create an image of what touches her.
that image in turn touches the viewer,
bringing him into contact with both his own perception and what originally inspired her, the photographer.

our retreat is designed for you to explore this encounter,
to begin to understand how you uniquely experience the world through each of your senses,
how you tell the story of your perception to others through your photography,
and in this process, develop your creative voice.

each day is dedicated to working with one sense (smell and taste are explored together) to offer you the opportunity of slowing down for a fully immersive experience.

the retreat is also a workshop in editing and creating a photo story.
it is a chance to experience each day being seen in your own uniqueness, through sharing and receiving feedback on your work in an open and supportive small group environment.

*retreat schedule:
on the first day, we will get to know each other and explore our surroundings with an initial shoot.
we will then start each morning sharing a selection of each person’s edited images from the previous day,
and with heartfelt respect and an open mind, I will provide guidance on developing your own photo story, told through your personal experience of each sense.
this is followed by a menu of exercises in self-awareness and assignments to personally explore the senses on different levels.
in the afternoon, you will have time to explore the island and shoot, transferring the experience from the self-awareness exercises and assignments into a photo story through each sense,
and then edit your images to share that story with the group the next morning.
this schedule will be repeated across the week for each sense:
 * day 2: touch
 * day 3: smell and taste
 * day 4: hearing
 * day 5: sight
on day 6 after lunch, you will have time for yourself to make any last purchases, ask questions and consider what you will explore after the workshop. we end the day with a farewell dinner and depart on day 7.

*support and guidance:
i offer you my extensive experience with concepts including styling for editorial magazines.
i will guide you through the complete realization process from ideation and storytelling into your own professional photo story with final art direction,
and deepen your insight into, and reveal hidden aspects of, the whole editorial photo production process.
i will share creative methods to help you develop ideas and stories for individual and unique photo productions, along with general and detailed color/theme styling concepts.
i aim to increase your perception, sensibility and sensory awareness.
i will encourage you to open yourself to be inspired by the beautiful and very special island of Gotland,
and to show this in each of your stories. 


*setting:
a tranquil island,
where you will find ancient fossils beneath your feet, 90 medieval churches and curly black sheep,
where you will enjoy delicious food, long daylight, open space and a huge northern sky…
where you can wander through shades of grey, let your eyes fall in deep turquoise blue waters, and
perhaps see wild orchids.
you will stay in a beautiful former family house, with original rustic furnishings, a greenhouse and garden;
a whimsical place near the sea.
you will have a single room, but as it is a family home, there is one bathroom to share.
you will have access to a car to explore the island on your afternoon assignments.
the group is limited to 4 people to provide maximum support, with both one to one and group sessions.

in short, you can expect:
intense days
full of experiences and learning
guided from the heart with knowledge and care.

*dates:
you may choose to attend one of two identical workshops 


 workshop 1 from 3. of June to 9. of June

*feedback from past workshop participants:
“I truly would recommend this workshop for everyone who wants to move forward in their creative work. I think was the best workshop I’ve ever attended. For me it was an opening experience and even more importantly, I felt I could accept myself as a creative and human being.”

“I would absolutely recommend your workshop to others. I thought it was fantastic.”

“I loved your lessons and the ‘presence’ you brought to each day. I felt ‘seen’ by you and in doing so felt propelled to really investigate myself and my process. You are a very special teacher/facilitator.”

“It’s given me more courage to just try and make.”

“The workshop helped shine light on change that I had bubbling under the surface. Sometimes you need time, space and a person to help you see the change you are trying to create.”

“I think some kind of process started in me during the workshop and it’s bringing me closer to what I really want to do.”

Berlin-WorkshopFoodStylingPhotography-LizJewels

Food Styling & Photography Workshop in Berlin









Berlin,wir kommen! Ja, und das im März! Wir planen wieder einen super Workshop, in dem ihr lernt, wie ihr mit gutem Styling und der passenden Perspektive professionelle Foodfotos machen könnt. Wir vermitteln die technischen Fotografiegrundlagen und verraten euch, wo ihr passende Accessoires und Hintergründe findet. Außerdem geht es um Bildaufbau, Komposition, Bildbearbeitung und Typografie. Also jeder, der einen Blog hat oder haben will, der aus der Gastronomie kommt, oder selbst schon länger fotografiert und lernen möchte, wie man so richtig schöne Foodfotos machen will, ist bei uns richtig.
Diesmal wagen wir etwas Neues: Wir möchten gern zwei Tage im „Berlin Loft“ mit euch verbringen, um möglichst intensiv an der Fotografie und dem Styling arbeiten zu können.
Außerdem konnten wir wieder die wunderbare Dietlind Wolf gewinnen, unser Gast zu sein. Sie wird uns mitnehmen in ihre Welt des Stylings und uns voller neuer Inspirationen, Ideen und Blickwinkel wieder in die reale Welt entlassen. Wir freuen uns riesig!
Die Location „The Berlin Loft“ ist auch etwas ganz besonderes: Eine alte Fabrikanlage, in der man denkt, die Zeit wäre stehengeblieben. Mit 4 Meter hohen Decken, Original belassenen Betonfußböden und Vintage Möbeln ist es eine wirklich beeindruckende Location.
Wir sind mega gespannt, wen wir im März in Berlin treffen werden und freuen uns riesig auf die zwei Tage!
