Workshop Overview

Come create bold, high-impact editorial portraits with award-winning photographer and WHCC Ambassador Bruce Royal as we take over Throttle Car Club for a day of models, dramatic lighting, and some seriously incredible luxury cars.

Bruce will walk you through creating stylized, cinematic portraits where the cars aren’t just a backdrop — they become part of the story. We’ll even toss in a fully stylized shoot for good measure, giving you the chance to experiment, push your creativity, and build images that feel more like an editorial campaign than a traditional portrait session.

Join us with your gear and an open mind on October 8th at Throttle Car Club in Scarborough, for a full day of learning, creating, and shooting surrounded by automotive eye candy.
