Next Level - Spain
Ok this is long overdue! My last workshop of 2008 was in the beautiful Spanish city of Seville and the final leg of my Next Level World Tour. I was actually travelling around Spain for a whole week before the workshop photographing many of the spectacular Moorish historical sites for a secret project I'll be working on this year. I was so worn out by the time I arrived in Seville for the workshop I adopted a relaxed approach to compensate for the gruelling schedule of the week before so my usual shooting frenzy was somewhat tamed which might have come as a relief to the models and the other attendees, lol! I've still have a few images I need to finish from this amazing week but here are some of my favourites in the meantime!
Many of you already know that these workshops have been the cornerstone of my development over the past year and a half. They have provided me with the necessary tools and skills to elevate my craft to a level I thought would take me many more years to reach! I've had the privilege of meeting so many great photographers along the way many of which have become good friends and find myself part of a fantastic growing community and network that offers the kind of support that will help you through those tough times and nourish you through the good. I won't be attending as many workshops this year, although Venice is a must (hey it's on my doorstep, well kind of!) but for those of you who have the time and are willing to make one of the best investments in your photography career then look no further than Scott's series of Next Level workshops which this year as well as Venice will include the destinations Hawaii and China!!!

Breathless.
about time you post these, B these are freaking amazing. in fact, that doesnt even really describe it wel. its absolutely stunning
Stunning! ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! I am just WOWED! I hardly even have the words.
Simply Enchanting!
These set of images are of the highest calibre. They allow the viewer to
be drawn in, to immerse themselves into each scene.
A beautiful array of deep colour and contrast with great poise and posture. Amazing capture of light to almost cinematic
proportions giving an abundance of depth.I must say that these are my first words posted as comments on your blog (definitely
not the last) but I have been watching so have seen the growth and progression
of your imagery and technique and am always deeply impressed.Keep moving forward at this marvellous pace and you will
indeed capture the heart of many.
goodness, where do i begin? these pictures were HOT HOT HOT! my faves are the model on the couch with the red tulle and the one of her up close and
in the black gown. HOT!
i also love love love love the one of the bride leaning across the steps smiling. LOVE THAT ONE!
thats some crazy dimension that pic of V on the sofa in the hotel has...nice!
All "wow" images B, one after the other. What a treat for us to view. It was great seeing in Vegas, I hope to see you soon.
Wow!! Thanks for bringing back the awesome memories so I'm glad you posted late!! hahaha. You've got some magical shots here!!! I see this last workshop of 2008 as kinda like your graduation- the end of the SR world tour and the beginning of forging your own way, being more on your own, defining your style and moving on. We all know you are one of our brightest stars and know without a doubt your future is waiting for you. Go out and grab it because you have all the tools!!
Love the stuff B! Don't make me wait until summer to see your Las Vegas photos - have a great year my friend
Bandele, my jaw just fell to the floor when I saw these. You really have out-done us ALL. These images are beyond breathtaking...
I'm complimenting you as someone who was right there, the moment that many of these images were captured. So I can credibly say, your vision, both in capture and in processing, is far beyond "the ordinary"... As others have already said- the pose, the gaze, the light, the dynamic dimension, ...all beautifully crafted...
My hat is off to you, my friend. Cheers! And I pray our paths will cross once again in Venice this summer!

Well I hate to be redundant, but yep you absolutely out did yourself. These are incredible. It is obvious your world tour paid off. Light, posing, comp. All truly a step above. Great job.
Amazing set B! You just re-ignited my jealously over missing Spain all over again!
Wow looking at this post brought so many memories…Stunning images as always.. Glad that you have a great year in perspective but a little sadden by he fact that you will not be in the montreal workshop
We shall meet again I am sure:)
All the best!
