Intimate Photography Portraits
A course by Marta Mas Girones , Portrait Photographer
Discover a new approach to taking portraits from an honest and intimate perspective
One of the challenges a portrait photographer faces when they stand behind the camera is to make their subject's personality shine through and be the real focus of attention. Marta Mas Girones—known on Instagram as leentrelineas—achieves this by tapping into a more intimate approach, with her own style that aims to explain the most honest truths of those in front of the camera.
In this course, experience and live Marta's photography to discover your own style by taking a series of photographs. Learn how a shoot works, from the initial contact with the models and directing them, to the choice of location, materials, light, and postproduction.

Marta Mas Girones
A course by Marta Mas Girones
Marta Mas was born in Barcelona and although her background is in philosophy, she has turned her love for photography into a career. Her portfolio contains a wide range of different clients, including actors and actresses, musicians, jewelry brands, and theaters.
Marta manages to capture the most personal side of her subjects through the portrait, which she explains is about "something in the way they look, maybe understanding them, anything that's more genuine than the armor with which we present ourselves to the world". With her style and ideas, she seeks a more human approach to photography that starts with care, seeing as the most honest truths can only be explained by those who don't judge.

Este é um dos melhores cursos que fiz aqui no Doméstika. A mentora é muito criativa e explica bem, no pouco tempo que dispõem, da técnica. Ela compõem retratos belos com criatividade e luz incríveis.

Sam kurs, bardzo podstawowy, ale tłumaczenie- oj... nie profesjonalne. Większość słów branżowych nie została dobrze przetłumaczona. Przykład to Obiektyw " kątowy"?! mowa o szerokokątnym. Prowadząca mówi też, że ustawia ręcznie fokus, czyli ostrosć na miejscach w które chce przyciągnąć uwagę, a tłumaczone jest tak, że bez uprzedniej znajomości tematu człowiek nic z tego nie wyciągnie. Pada hasło " miałam ustawienia manualne, żeby skupić się na tym na czym chce" mniej więcej. No słabo.
