Customer Reviews
The workshop is designed as a beginner’s introduction to studio lighting. Students will learn how to use stand-alone studio lights and will be working with a model to capture shadow free, perfectly lit portraits. Throughout the day we will progress from lighting a subject with one then two lights, illuminating the background for shadow free results.
This workshop is intended for small groups only to ensure students are able to spend as much time as possible photographing the models as well as setting up the lights / background etc.
This workshop is held at our Cameracal Studio in West Chiltington. See directions below.
On our half day Studio Portraiture workshop we cover the following:
- Setting up a studio lighting setup from scratch.
- Use of a handheld light meter to gauge exposure.
- Using your camera in manual mode to capture portrait images.
- Using lights to vary the colour of backgrounds from white though to grey and black.
- Use of light shaping tools including reflectors.
- Tethering your camera for instant results using Lightroom.
