EXPRESSIONIST | MINDFULNESS

Based on the stunning West Sussex beach of West Wittering, you will learn how to to use the

technique of intentional camera movement to create striking, ethereal and abstract representations of our surroundings.

MEET YOUR HOSTS

Mark Cornick and Shona Perkins are excited to announce a new collaborative workshop in April 2024, taking place at one of the best beaches along the West Sussex coast.

They met through their shared passion for seascape and ICM photography, resonating deeply with each others work, which both draw similarities in expression, evoking emotion and creating a sense of calm.

They now share the same vision in sharing their passion and knowledge for ICM and abstract photography with others.

DETAILS AND DATES COMING SOON...

Mark is a Surrey based photographer working on abstract and contemporary landscape projects in Coastal locations.

Having always felt a strong connection to the Coast, Mark aims not only to showcase the beauty of the Coastline, but to also talk about the importance of these areas as places for personal reflection, tranquillity, and mental well-being.

Shona specialises in Seascape and ICM photography, heavily influenced by contemporary art and abstract minimalism, Shona has spent the past few years developing her love for intentional camera movement (ICM).

Often described as creating a sense of calm through her imagery, Shona manages to capture solitude, tranquillity and haunting beauty in her work, all whilst maintaining her distinct style.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR DAY

Key Features of the Workshop and Location

Why West Wittering

One of the most beautiful beaches on the South Coast, West Wittering is perfect for ICM and Abstract photography.

Miles of open sandy beach, expansive skies and low tide pools make for perfect compositional aids.

Accessibility and amenities are plentiful, and the fish and chips are pretty good too!

Composition & Technique

Mark and Shona will go into detail on how to set your camera up for ICM photography, and will share our knowledge on the best techniques and movements for capturing ethereal and effective images.

We will demonstrate how different shutter speeds effect the final outcome of your images, and also which camera movements compliment the foreground you are capturing.

Mindfulness

A big focus for the day will be on mindfulness. We will encourage you to make the most of being in this stunning location, and to take in the sights, sounds and smells of the Coast.

Hopefully, you will end the session not only armed with the knowledge of how to make great ICM images, but also feeling rejuvenated mentally and physically.

The Art Of Abstraction

There is more to West Wittering then wide angle compositions, and we will encourage you to seek out some finer details and more intimate scenes to capture.

Although primarily an ICM based workshop, we will always encourage experimentation of technique, which could include multiple exposures, or a focus on shape, colour and texture.
