This introductory course provides an overview of the essential principles, techniques, and tools for lighting a variety of situations. Demonstrations take place both in the studio and on location. Through hands-on practice and assignments, students learn how to use lighting equipment and accessories, as well as a range of light sources, including tungsten, studio strobe, portable strobe, and daylight. We also review examples of the direction and quality of light, and discuss their function in the photograph.
Course Level / Prerequisite: Intermediate: You are familiar with a camera, whether film or digital. You understand aperture, shutter speed, exposure, white balance, histograms, and how to control focus. You are comfortable editing and processing your images. You may want to learn how to utilize your camera in a more thoughtful and articulate way, or learn more about lighting or how to utilize theoretical concepts in relation to your portfolio of work.

Welcome! We will start every class by reviewing and critiquing your previous work along with the assignments done during the workshop. Please bring a few samples of the best you have done and what it is you would like to do. This will give me an opportunity to concentrate on some areas of specific interest. The critique is an integral part of the learning process because not only do you get feedback on your own work, but learn by the other participant’s efforts. For the first day of class please bring your camera, lens or lenses, and any other equipment you plan to use during this workshop. In preparation for this class you should review your camera manual, and be aware that if your camera does not have a sync socket you will need to get a hot-shoe adapter that will allow you to plug the strobe sync cord into your camera. See you in the studio!
