Chasing Light Part 1:

Flash & Off-Camera Flash

APRIL 29, 2018

"I don't use artificial light, I'm a natural light photographer."

It's a common misconception. Really, what we mean when we say that is, "I feel more comfortable using natural light than artificial light."

Every photographer starts off a little scared of using flash. We get so used to using natural outdoor light, that when it comes time to indoor photography, we don't know what to do. What I'm going to show you in this course is that the principles of light to make magical indoor and outdoor portraits are the same.

In our time together, we are going to go over the principles of light, review how to properly use natural window lighting, and then I am going to show you how to rock both your on camera flash, as well as take that flash off-camera, use light modifiers, and make both people and details look AMAZING.

And what's even more awesome? You are going to practice, live - on real models, and a real tablescape.

Are you ready?! It's time to rock your lighting this year!

Be ready to learn, bring a notebook and pen, iPad or device to take notes! Also, bring your camera body (with charged batteries and clean memory card), a 50 mm or wide lens, your external flash (And, if you don't have one --> this is your cue to go get one!), and if you're more advanced and have radio triggers and light stands, bring those as well.

I'll teach you to create stunning portrait and detail images!

Your Experience

You will have instructional teaching from Kerri Lynne so you will understand how the principles of light work in an indoor setting. We will start using window light indoors with a live model and styled tablescape. And we will actually apply these techniques indoors using our flash, and even use radio triggers to set up off camera flash! You will be able to practice lighting and posing on the model and tablescape yourself as Kerri Lynne teaches it!

Your Investment

Learning is an experience and the BEST investment you can make into yourself! When I first started out in business, I realized quickly that it wasn't just my marketing that was going to propel my business. But investing in MYSELF so that I can learn skills that will give my clients a more valuable experience. Gaining confidence with your camera, its settings, and how to light difficult situations will help your clients relax more, trust you more, and RAVE about what you did for them. And, bonus - as you learn to master lighting, your services will naturally become more VALUABLE.
