IMHO the person well qualified to conduct such a workshop will have to be lanatir. His photography skill is simply  :thumbsup:.
Unfortunately he's a very busy man.
Let's hope he can spare the time to conduct such a workshop for forum members in the near future.

wah this sort of baiting. i'm not worthy leh. but if u guys wanna learn whatever i know, i dont mind sharing with u.

just find a location with white ceilings and walls and some clean tables and we're set.

my style of work involves working with a DSLR and a macro lens with 1 or 2 flash. but generally, as we try to shoot in situ and often during events, we are very limited with what we can carry and what we can setup at the location so we often hv to compromise. i often hv to shoot during dinner launches where i don't hv much time with the watch.

so if u wanna know how i do it my way, then i am most willing to share.

Regards
Kelvin

It was not baiting Kelvin,  ;D. I'm just telling it as it is.
Anyway I'm sure there are many members here who will be interested to learn your style of shooting.
As they say a workshop is worth more than a thousand words or posts. Looking forward to learning more from you.
