With Matt Davies
It doesn't matter whether you rent the best retail space in town or work from your tiny home studio in your bedroom, great portraits possess great elements – and not the least of these is light!
In this course, you'll learn how to set up and analyze lighting for perfect portraits as well as how to make needed adjustments throughout your shoot. In this hands-on opportunity, you'll not only use the equipment but practice shooting models with your various setups. You'll walk away with photos to review at home as well as digital copies of the course materials.
Legendary football coach Vince Lombardi said it best. "Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect." So sign up today for hands-on practice and perfect your lighting skills!
