Portrait photography: More than a face.

What makes a portrait truly memorable? It’s rarely just the lighting, the lens or the camera. The strongest portraits come from a balance of technical control, creative intention and genuine human connection.

Join portrait photographer Hannah Couzens for an inspiring talk exploring how technical decisions and personal interaction work together to create compelling portraits. Through real-world examples and behind-the-scenes stories, Hannah will share how conversation, light, composition and timing can all combine to bring out the best in your subject.

This session will look beyond camera settings and equipment, focusing on the choices that help shape mood, character and connection within a portrait. From building trust with your subject to making small lighting and compositional decisions that elevate an image, Hannah will offer practical insight for photographers looking to create stronger, more engaging portraits.
