Steampunk Meets Dieselpunk – A Welshot Themed Photo-Shoot
Steampunk Meets Dieselpunk – A Welshot Themed Photo-Shoot
Join us at our first Themed Photo-Shoot of 2023 for what promises to be an exceptional day of photography. This Welshot inspired nod, in essence, is a homage to vintage, Victorian fashion with a modern, sassy twist – Think Victorian Industrial meets Mad Max Futuristic.
At this Welshot event, with at least four Models (Male and Female) we will be using bustles, corsets, gowns, and petticoats; suits with waistcoats, coats, top hats, tailcoats and spats; and military-inspired garments. Most of the costumes will be bespoke to Welshot, having been made, or adapted, by our Team Creative.
As well as our bespoke costumes, we will have at least four different, specifically printed backdrops, that are unique to Welshot – all with an array of props for you to use throughout the day, ensuring you will leave this event with images to be proud of.

Beginner to photography? We’re here for you.
Whether you are a beginner to photography, a photographer who would like to try a new genre, learn a new technique or skill, or, a more advanced photographer who wants to build their image portfolio, you will be made welcome, and we would love to help you get the best out of your camera.
The Welshot Team will be at hand throughout this Steampunk Meets Dieselpunk – A Welshot Themed Photo-Shoot event to assist and help you get the best from your camera, so you can leave at the end of this session with memory cards full of beautiful photographs and great memories having learned a thing or three about photography and your camera.
How it works
At Welshot you will photograph each model, in all the themed sets of the day. We keep groups small, which are then rotated throughout the day from set to set. You will never have less than an hour in each set and often it will be more.
We have (at least) two themed sets in the Morning and (at least) two different sets in the Afternoon. Each set has a Team Leader and a group leader to keep the day running smoothly. They will also be on hand to help you with anything you may need, from help with your camera and photographic tuition to using the lighting equipment.
Lunch and continuous hot and cold drinks are always included on these photography workshops. Often, we have a few treats too!
We have a rule at Welshot… The Photographer who has the trigger has the FULL attention from the model(s), and the Team Leader. The set, complete with lighting and props is all yours for your shooting time – We do not allow piggy-back style shooting at ANY of our studio mains or off camera flash events.
Welshot Team Leaders are there to help you get the best out of your camera and apart from a very quick lighting check before each the morning and afternoon sessions they do not use their camera at all.
