The "New Nude" Weekend Workshop:

"Syx has an addictive passion for photography - I really enjoyed learning from him".

"Syx's refreshing and unique vision made for an exciting workshop - I got great images for my portfolio and will be back and take another workshop with him".

"Amazing Workshop. I was really impressed to find such a unique opportunity in Vancouver. We all walked away with tons of edgy pictures."

Take a closer look at nude photography with Vancouver Photo Workshops’ “The New Nude” June 6th to the 9th , 2008. Fine art and fashion photographer Syx Langemann introduces participants to an exciting dimension of nude photography that fixates on angles and hidden details, exposing fetishes and desires.

Syx has focused much of his career on studying the female body, including his series Postapocerotica, where his portraits beautifully portray fetish, intimate bondage and body modification. His roots as a body piercer, as well as years of fashion photography, give Syx an unmatched eye for intimate and unique views of the body, and for challenging traditional definitions of beauty.

Students will prepare to embark on this adventure by discussing the style, composition and content of examples from both contemporary photographers and student contributions.  

This class offers two days of shooting in three different locations, ranging from a modern photography studio in Vancouver’s Main Street area to an )weather permitting) exotic outdoor location. Participants will experience mixed lighting styles, creating edgy looks in each setting. Syx guides his students over the curves of the body, identifying strong, interesting lines, and encouraging daring, provocative shots.

This rare opportunity to experience raw, honest photography that observes the desires of the artist, the subject, and the audience, is truly unique and cannot be missed.

This class offers and exciting new look at the world of nude photography.
Using examples from contemporaries and students contributions we will discuss issues of style, composition and content while preparing to embark on two days worth of shooting.

Step beyond the traditional and enter the intimate world of the new nude. Where the intimate meets the erotic, where any fetish is someones desire.

We'll meet at Syx's studio for an initial lecture on Friday evening (7pm until 10pm). The next two days are spent shooting extensively, about 6 hours each day Saturday and Sunday. We'll meet back at the studio after a week or so to discuss and critique our results. The exact details about this follow-up meeting will be discussed at the workshop.
