About this event

        

Join us for a creative portrait session at Barrow Hill Roundhouse using the Film Noir theme to create eye catching iconic 40's & 50's Hollywood style portraiture with 1 female model & 1 female & 1 male re-enactor. We will look to re-create some of those iconic portraits from the Hollywood studios & film set style images.









		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		

















This portrait day aims to push the boundaries of your photography and technique! The use of light is
 key to taking eye catching Film Noir portraiture, and what better place than a historic roundhouse with great steam trains and our lighting and smoke machines for effect! This venue offers some truly unique backdrops and will set the tone for some truly beautiful period imagery. We will have esclusive use of the whole venue for our group and photographic pleasure.
