Hi All
I am interested in developing my naturist modelling and photography skills and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for courses or workshops online or one to one then please reply. I am aware that Charlie Simonds who photographed for H&E did run a workshop a few years ago but I am unable to find any reference to this course and if it is still active.
If anyone is interested in helping me then I am willing to pose for TFP for exchange in learning more from someone who has experience.

There's a Parafotos Naturist Photography Masterclass to be held at Pevors Farm, 2/3 Sept 2020 advertised on Charlie's website ..... parafotos.co.uk That will presumably be subject to current restrictions being lifted.
However, the Masterclass (which I did with him in 2014) is all about learning the photography side, not the modelling side. The attendees are usually pretty committed photographers. The models provided are usually full-time professional.
It looks like the event is now more of a joint Charlie/H&E event as Sam Hawcroft appears to be seriously involved with it.
If it's developing your modelling skills that is of most interest to you then a good (and genuine) resource is purpleport.com which is a model/photographer exchange system that does have a number of male nude models.
Hope that helps
Charlie has obviously changed it as he was to be at Pevors Farm in June at about the same time as we were to be there. Pevors advised that they were cancelling June bookings because of the coronavirus and we are waiting to see if they can offer another time slot for later this year
