Unleashed | fine art dog photography workshops is a new adventure into the art of pet photography. Three photographers from three different metropolitan areas, bringing three different perspectives together in one place. This is a cooperative effort between

Teresa Berg (in Dallas),

Barbara Breitsameter (in Chicago) and

Bev Hollis (in Virginia/D.C.).

Why learn just one way of doing something? Our vision, technique, business experiences and styles are translated into an intense, yet fun and informal two and a half day learning retreat.

The workshop welcomes professional photographers of all skill levels. Because of the business information shared by the instructors, photographers that reside or have their business located within 40 mile radius from Arlington Hts. IL, Dallas, TX or Leesburg, VA will not be allowed to sign up for the Unleashed workshop.

To keep the experience “hands on” and personal, a very limited number of attendees will be allowed to register. We want to be able to personalize the learning and use small break out sessions to include shooting (both in the studio and on location), marketing and business practices and post processing. If you’re interested in adding this very vital and growing aspect of photography to your studio, please join us!

• Select clothing that fits! Loose & tight clothing will only make you look larger.

• Select the right bra! That’s right. A properly fitted bra can make all the difference in how you look. I highly recommend getting professionally fitted for the right bra and size for you. Most woman are wearing the wrong bra and bra size. A good minimizer bra for a large breasted woman can make you look much slimmer.

• Wear shape wear that smooths and minimizes imperfections.

• Avoid clingy fabric clothing.

• Long sleeves are best, however in those humid summer months it is not always optimal for outdoor sessions.

• Vneck blouses are best. They are always slimming and look good on almost every woman.

• Avoid bulky sweaters! A bulky sweater is guaranteed to make you look as if you are 20 pounds heavier.

• Wear clothing that is easy to move in. Stay away from mini skirts, long slim skirts. It really limits the poses we can do that are the most flattering.

• Wear darker colors! Brown, Navy, Olive, Eggplant, Blue, Burgundy. Everyone seems to gravitate to Black, however there are many beautiful and flattering dark colors to choose from.

• Dress Monochromatic — one solid color head to toe.

• Cool, dark colors are more slimming. Warm colors appear closer and larger.

• Wear flat front slacks for men and woman. Avoid elastic & drawstring waisted clothing.

• Avoid belts. They cut the body in half and draw your eye to the waistline.

• Avoid bulky pockets on the front and back.

• Avoid wide collars, cowl & turtlenecks.

• Single-breasted jackets are best. Double-breasted adds weight onto your appearance.

• If you are short, avoid capri slacks. It shortens the leg. The longer your legs appear, the slimmer you will look.

• I am not a fan of tunic tops, especially if you are a short stature. It is optimal that a blouse or top bottom edge be cropped a few inches below the waistline.

• For full length portraits, wear heels. The heels make your legs look longer and slimmer.
