Bevin and I hosted another photography workshop last Sunday at the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake-shore. This time we had a good mix of photographers and models. The word got out from our last workshop how much fun we have. And, as an added bonus, everyone comes away with great images.
The dunes were hot as the temperature soared to 90 degrees. A few of the attendees took a swim in Lake Michigan to cool off.

This was taken in the “golden hour.” You can see from these pictures that the light gives the photographs a golden tone. Even the rocks on the shore look like nuggets of gold.
Charlotte Morgan is new to modeling but she loves to come out and try new poses.
Kayla Lehn carpooled with Amy Sevenksi. Neither one of them have ever driven themselves to dunes. They were almost the first to arrive. 
Arielle LaHaye frequently models around Traverse City. She has been involved in a few modeling contests and has worked with a number of local photographers.
All-in-all I think the workshop went well. The dunes present a special challenge for this type of workshop. Climbing up and down the dunes is a lot of work.
If you forget something in the car there is little chance of going back to get it. I’m not that energetic when it comes to climbing over dunes in 90 degree heat.
Once you get over the hills however, the views are spectacular and absolutely worth the climb.
