with Kellie Carr Augustyn, CPP
As a busy senior portrait specialist, Kellie Carr Augustyn, CPP, gets asked to photograph all kinds of things...book obsessions, sports, dancing, drawing - you name it, the kids are into it! But what happens when their best friend just happens to be a bovine, an award-winning horse, or a herd of cattle? Or even a dog, two pigs, three sheep, four cattle, 372 ribbons, and a livestock trailer.....all in the same image? Growing up on a working cattle ranch and learning to photograph people and large animals as a western-industry journalist, Kellie has learned the ropes of livestock photography inside and out. The studio she owns with her mom, Becky Carr, has earned a reputation as being one of the best large-animal portrait photographers in the state of Nebraska and beyond. Clients travel hundreds of miles, trailers, and animals in tow because they know KC Creations will make their animal look as good as their human does! This course will cover the importance of lens choice, focal distance, posing with large animals, lighting, and everything else you need to know to learn how to master a large animal portrait with their humans to make you a more versatile photographer. If you're uncomfortable around large animals, Kellie will help you with that as well. The studio is located on a working ranch, so animals are part of daily life. Horses and cattle provided for a hands-on experience and plenty of opportunities to add some barnyard flavor to your portfolio. We will be using GoDox lighting outdoors, with the class time corresponding with golden-hour shooting for stunning portraits! We will start with classroom education in the studio, then move outside. Please dress accordingly to shoot in tall grass. Close-toe shoes and long pants are recommended!
