Introduction to Studio Lighting

Are you a beginner photographer that wants to get to grips with how lighting works or someone that is competent with their camera and wants to use a studio to take pictures, but were just too intimidated to book one?
Well this is the course for you. In time everyone develops their own style but this course will give you the confidence to try out what you have learnt and feel confident that you will get a decent result.
I’ll be covering such things as :-
- How to set up your camera for the studio
- How best to set your lights for the desired result, whether that 1,2 or 3 of them.
- What are Beauty dishes, Softboxes, grids & snoots? and what do they do to the light.
- How to use reflectors/polyboards to shape the light to get what you want from the picture.
- Going through the fundamental lighting patterns, which are used in all flash photography.
- What is a light meter & what does it tell you?
- Using Hard & Soft light and how it affects the result.
- Putting together your own headshot/Fashion photograph

Your camera should also have a hotshoe from which to fire the lights, although the triggers (the devices which make the lights fire) will be provided.
Please let me know which camera make you have when booking.
