Shooting with a Model in an outdoor environment

Join us for a 4-hour natural light photography walk through the streets and coastline of Margate, Kent, working with professional model Lia.

This photoshoot is designed around shooting in live environments, using Margate’s distinctive mix of coastal textures, vintage architecture, hidden alleyways, sea views, and ever-changing natural light to create powerful, story-driven portraits.

Lia brings a wealth of international modelling experience, having worked across France, Italy, Japan, Vietnam, the USA, and the UK. Her portfolio includes campaigns and collaborations with Burberry, ASOS, Illamasqua, Garnier, The Hut Group, and Sony, alongside numerous magazine publications.

To ensure a relaxed and productive experience, the group is limited to a maximum of five photographers. This keeps the session personal, gives everyone meaningful shooting time with the model, and allows space to experiment creatively without feeling rushed or crowded.

Who It’s For:
This walk is ideal for photographers who want to:

  • Build confidence directing and working with models

  • Develop a stronger visual and storytelling style

  • Improve their use of natural light and location portraiture

  • Create impactful images outside of a studio environment

  • Gain experience shooting in dynamic real-world settings

Whether you’re looking to refresh your portfolio, refine your portrait work, or simply enjoy a creative day shooting in one of Kent’s most visually rich seaside towns, this experience is designed to help you grow both technically and creatively.

Kit required:

  • DSLR, Mirrorless or Bridge Camera

  • Your preferred lens (can be anything from wide angle, 50mm, 100mm or telephoto) Each offers something unique for the shoot

  • Comfortable walking shoes

  • Rain coat just in case the other turns, this is an outdoors shoot and we’re in England so, be prepared

Limited spaces available to ensure quality shooting time for everyone.

This group photoshoot is intended solely for portfolio-building purposes and is not a commercial production; participants and photographers must not request or demand model release forms from any individuals involved.
