The 2019 Cats of Catskill, New York – Part 4

by hankinslawrenceimages | Aug 6, 2019 | New York

For the past 13 years, the Heart of Catskill Association in Catskill, New York has organized a public art project Cat’N Around Catskill for cat lovers everywhere! Each year, artists decorate cat sculptures and they are placed on Main Street and a few other locations in town. I first saw the Cats in 2017 when I was photographing in the area. Last month, I spent some time in the Hudson River Valley, so of course I had to check out this year’s cats.

This year, there are 52 cats on display. I had a wonderful time photographing the 48 that I found. I’ll be sharing photos of some of them all this week in a series of blog posts.

And so here they are – the 2019 Cats of Catskill

by hankinslawrenceimages | Aug 2, 2019 | Workshops

Have you ever wanted to learn about studio lighting in a fun relaxing atmosphere? Are you curious about working with a figure model? Have you always wanted to photograph nudes but weren’t sure where to find a female-friendly atmosphere to learn in?

On December 7, Bill and I will be teaching an introductory workshop at our home in Bethesda on photographing a fine art figure model. Not only will talk about how to work with a model and how to photograph with studio flash units but you’ll also have a chance to photograph local fine art figure model Gazelle Powers.

Gazelle is a very experienced model. Her poses are always beautiful and elegant. And she is fantastic to work with!!! You will love working with Gazelle.

The workshop is limited to 4 students to ensure that everyone has plenty of time to work with Gazelle.

More information about the workshop including registration information is on my website at https://beautifulflowerpictures.com/store/photographing-model-gazelle-powers-dec-7-2019/

We’d love to have you join us on December 7.
