Workshop Description

JOIN ACCLAIMED TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHER & CUBA EXPERT CHRISTOPHER P. BAKER AND ONE OF CUBA’S TOP FEMALE PHOTOGRAPHERS ON THIS GLAMOUR AND ART-NUDE PHOTO TOUR AS WE SHOOT CUBA’S MOST BEAUTIFUL MODELS AND BALLERINAS IN HAVANA’S INCOMPARABLY TIME-WORN SETTINGS

For anyone who appreciate human beauty as art! On this one-of-a-kind photo tour, we’ll photograph Cuban female models in as fantastic a backdrop for art-nude and glamour photography as exists in this world, given its mixture of Spanish colonial and faded baroque architecture, its wealth of 1950s American cars, and its stimulating aura of exoticism. To which add Cuba’s stunningly beautiful and self-assured women, and their joyous at-ease delight in being photographed. A tribute to the female form and to human beauty as art, our respectful and elegant treatment of the subject pays homage to the Cuban Revolution’s advancement of women’s rights and self-determination, while also honoring their own unashamedly and affirmatively self-confident pride in expressing their sensuality. When: December 7-14, 2024 and annually thereafter

Additional Information

U.S. legal: Despite President Trump’s restrictions on travel to Cuba effective September 24, 2020, and still in effect, every U.S. citizen can still legally travel to Cuba, pre-approved and at any time, under the “support for the Cuban people” license. This program is designed in accordance with U.S. regulations intended to maximize “support for the Cuban people” through stays at private B&Bs, meals at private restaurants, and interactions with independent models, photographers, artists, owners of classic convertible taxis, etc. Your models: We’ll select our models from many of Chris’ personal friends, including renowned actresses, singers, aspiring and professional models, plus Tropicana showgirl dancers and top ballerinas from the Ballet Nacional de Cuba. In all cases, this will depend on their availability, of course! We aim to provide a minimum of two models daily, and sometimes three to ensure that only two or three participants are working with any one model at any time.
