hey im chalette, im 15 and ive always wanted to model, but i just thought that it was just being skinny (which ive mastered) and being pretty, and for catwalk modeling , the walk (im practicing every day). Many of my freinds from school say im so pretty and they think i look like a porcelline doll (which when i stay still i do) so I was very motivated to be a model. But boy, I had no idea that you needed so many skills, i new you had to pose (I practice with my emotion in my face all the time) but i didnt no you had to try a pose right away . thatnks for tellign me what skills you need to have, youve oppened my eyes, and because im still very younge i relly did need to no those skills to become my dream , a model

Comment on Photographic Tuition & Photography Courses by Anjanita Eldridge

Spending 2 days with Jon Silver at his studio in Brighton was the most productive 2 days photographic tuition I have had.

I learned more in 2 days with Jon than any amount of reading, web browsing or practice had got me in years. He removes the mystique surrounding the photography business and breaks it down into plain common sense. I came away enthusiastic, motivated and chomping at the bit to get on with my next project.

It doesn’t matter if you haven’t got a fortune to spend on state of the art equipment, Jon will show you how to make the most of everyday objects to enhance your photographic skills with stunning results. At the end of my session, instead of having one or two images that were OK, I had so many it was difficult to choose only one for my project.

Jon will not only help to get your head around the technical aspects, he will also look at the psychology involved in getting your subject to relax and look their best and actually enjoy the process of having their photo taken, which for a corporate photographer is a god-send.
