Getting started in headshot photography with Roamy Fils-Aime, Cr.Photog., CPP, a Hudson Valley-based professional photographer. Roamy takes you step-by-step through the process of creating pro-level headshots using a simple setup. Whether you are using studio strobes or speedlights, you’ll learn how to position the light with a basic setup that many photographers use. Become familiar with which lighting modifiers to use and how to direct your subject to get each shot. Once the shooting is done Roamy will demonstrate how to review the images with your client to ensure they are happy with the results. We'll walk you through the key steps in Roamy's post-processing tips and tricks in dealing with the most common types of problematic retouching situations you may encounter, such as reflections on glasses or reducing wrinkles on clothing.
