Toronto Photography Meetup Group

I think this falls under the "now I have seen everything" file...Creative Image Studios is having a "Ever wanted to be the photographer that catches the actress in "the moment"? class.

This includes "Wardrobe Malfunction", "Pulled a Paris", and "Caught in the Act"...I'll let you click or not click the link depending on if you want to see the details:

Anyway, my reason for posting this is, is this going to far?

Or is it simply supplying according to demand?

p.s. I have NO CONNECTION with them nor do I know anyone there...I found this while looking for a "fine art nude photography class".

I've done a couple workshops with CIS (they were Spectrum Studios then) and they try to come up with themes to keep things interesting.

I don't think this course is actually teaching you how to become a paparazzi. It's just the theme. So the model (not very flattering portfolio pics) will be staged in various looks to simulate that "sneak peek" kind of look.

Paparazzi for Dummies.

No results in Google...

I've also taken a couple workshops with them. I have no issue with them trying to find some interesting themes for people. This isn't too bad. A couple 'paparazzi' type Hollywood type shots (if staged right) might be fun to have in your collection. Hey, those shots sell and make covers of trash mags, so it's a market! ha ha
