Flash: Discovering Your Personal Vision Through Flash Photography

Photography is about light—and manipulating it. Adding flash to your skill set opens up endless possibilities for your vision to come to life, your work to grow, and you to surprise yourself. This course delves into the possibilities of flash photography through hands-on exercises and presentations about various techniques to employ when photographing with flash. We also cover how to use TTL and Manual mode on flashes and cameras to balance flash with existing lighting conditions. Participants should have a mirrorless or DSLR camera and a flash unit; they should also already be comfortable working in Manual mode.
