Hello photographers! My next event will be a fine art, super-fun creative portraiture photoshoot using monochromatic bold color and then color contrast as our concepts. Examples above are part of my mood board, images are taken off of Pinterest. We will explore how intentional use of color and lighting create captivating, creative images, and each attendee will be an active participant in this photoshoot!

This will be a two hour event with attendance at a minimum (5 photographers max allowed) due to the smaller space of my photo studio. Since we have a smaller attendance, we will have two back-to-back photo events for the up-to 5 photographers each time slot. Please arrive 15 minutes early to ensure we are all ready to go by the start time of the event.

It’s Events with Dakota’s honor to have Seraphina as our model for this photo event! She is a San Francisco based pro model who has 6 years of full-time modeling experience, especially in the genre of fine art.

When: November 7th, 2026, with Two timeslots: 2-4 pm, and 4:15-6:15 pm.

Where: Studio MAB Frederick at 104 W Main Street, Middletown, Maryland. Parking is on street and free, there is also a municipal lot where people can park just a block down from Studio MAB’s building.

Equipment needed: Just your camera and lenses. I use Elinchrom Strobes for most of my lighting setups and universal triggers do NOT work for Elinchrom. The Elinchrom Skyport Trigger works for all standard hotshoe camera mounts.
