This is a hands-on instructional workshop using flash and reflectors/diffusers and natural light to create outdoor portraits. The goal is to help you learn both the technical and creative techniques that will help you with the process of creating remarkable images outdoors on a location photo shoot.
Topics that we will cover:
• Lighting : Natural Light, Flash and Reflector/Diffuser
• What to look for when making an image. This sounds rather vague right now – but this is huge in terms of getting a great picture.
• Posing Techniques
• Lens Selection for Portraits
• Controlling Depth of Field – How to deal with backgrounds
• Selecting a location and background choice
After demonstrating each lighting technique, each participant will be able to photograph the model using the same lighting set-up. Everyone will have the opportunity to put in to practice the lighting techniques taught.
