Editing & Professional Guidance: Take your images from good to unforgettable. On the second day, you’ll work through a complete professional editing workflow using the shots you captured in the studio. 

Alongside technical skills, Vadym will also share professional advice on building a strong portfolio and developing your visual style. He will guide you through:

• Selecting the strongest images from your shoot
• Colour correction and grading for mood and style
• Retouching skin, hair, and clothing while keeping a natural look
• Enhancing texture, detail, and depth
• Preparing images for both print and digital portfolios
• Positioning and presenting your work to stand out in the industry

By the end of the day, you’ll not only have a set of fully polished, editorial-standard images — but also the skills, workflow, and professional insights to apply the same process confidently in your own projects and career.

Vadym Yatsun is a London-based photographer and art director, originally from Ukraine. His work merges sculptural lighting, surreal storytelling, and high fashion aesthetics. With over a decade of experience, Vadym has developed a distinctive visual language defined by precise lighting, dynamic set design, and bold, color-filtered distortions that challenge conventional beauty narratives.

Self-taught and originally trained as a musician, Vadym turned to photography out of necessity, to craft his own promotional imagery. His work draws heavily on rhythm and composition, treating light as a sculptural medium. Known for transforming studio environments into immersive, emotional landscapes, he uses hard light, prisms, layered gels, and mirrored reflections to turn his subjects into living symbols of tension, power, and transformation.

Vadym’s editorial portfolio includes collaborations with L’Officiel, Schön!, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Marie Claire, Dazed, Paper Magazine, Creative Head, Hunger, and Shot. His photographs have been on covers, global campaigns, and experimental beauty stories.

Since relocating to the UK, Vadym’s work has quickly gained recognition across both the fashion and beauty industries. At the core of Vadym’s practice is an obsession with detail, emotional depth, and visual experimentation. His shoots are meticulously planned, yet always leave room for spontaneity, a balance that allows authenticity to emerge from precision.

We’ll be working in a fully-equipped East London studio, complete with professional lighting, a variety of backdrops, and an array of styling props. It’s not just about the shoot, you’ll also have the chance to connect and collaborate with other London creatives in an inspiring, professional environment.
