Body-positive posing and self-portrait techniques for fat folks

Join photographer and body liberation activist Lindley Ashline for a workshop on selfies, posing and power.

In the Fat-Positive Posing & Selfie Techniques workshop, learn how self-portraits express power, photographers’ tricks for good portraits, and poses you can use forever.

On Tuesday, July 16 at 5:30 pm Pacific time (PST), we’ll cover:

  • The relationship between portraits, power and profit
  • Why selfies are sometimes considered vain and shallow
  • The basics of exposure, lighting and composition
  • How to take good-quality photos with just your phone
  • Dealing with emotions that come up with photos
  • Five easy-to-strike poses to take with you

Expect to spend 90 minutes to two hours at the workshop. A recording will be sent out to everyone who signs up, so register even if you can’t make it and watch later at your convenience.

The workshop cost is $29; Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC); queer folks; disabled and neurodivergent folks; and people with hip measurements over 50โ€ณ can take $10 off with code SELFIEEQUITY.
