Barbara Bordnick’s Summer Flower Photography Workshops

May 26th, 2010 by Allison Gibson Posted in Blog

Renowned New York fine art photographer, Barbara Bordnick, who was profiled in the Spring ‘09 issue of DP, is offering workshops on photographing flowers in her Manhattan studio this summer. More information below…

A Summer Flower Photography Workshop
By Barbara Bordnick

Come join Barbara Bordnick for an extraordinary weekend workshop on photographing flowers in her Manhattan studio, located in the historic Photo/Flat Iron District of Manhattan. She is the author of three innovative, best-selling books of photographs of flowers:  SEARCHINGS:  Secret Landscapes of Flowers Volumes I, II & III.

Ms. Bordnick is a renowned fashion, portrait, nude and floral photographer who has taught workshops all over  the world. Due to the popularity of her weekend workshop in flower photography, she has added another: June 26 & 27, 2010

To keep each workshop as intimate and hands-on as possible, only six students per workshop will be admitted. Along with demonstrations of lighting and set-up techniques for shooting flowers in the studio, the workshops begin with a trip to the New York City wholesale flower market to choose flowers. Each student will go home with a gorgeous, archival pigment print of her/his own work.

“It was more than I could have ever imagined—an experience of a lifetime. Thank you for your warm hospitality and your willingness to share some of the Bordnick tricks of the trade.” – P.M., Sacramento, CA

“I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed being with you in your studio in New York. I came home inspired and encouraged. I wish we could all come back one weekend a month.”  – D.W., Dallas, TX

“The real challenge was to develop our vision, hear what each flower is saying, and translate that into our photographs.” – E.S., Cachoeiro, Brazil

The cost of each workshop is $950.00.  *To hold a reservation e-mail info@searchings.us and send a $450.00 deposit.

For out-of-town participants, the elegant W Hotel has agreed to make rooms available for a special discount price of $229.00 per night.

*Mail deposit payable to Barbara Bordnick at 39 East 19th Street, New York NY 10003
