An Introduction to Flash Lighting with Christina Mitrea
Join us for an in-depth introduction to flash lighting at TFC London. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to shape and control light using a variety of modifiers and reflectors, empowering you to achieve polished results straight out of the camera and streamline your post-production workflow. We’ll explore everything from simple one-light setups to dynamic three-light configurations, guiding you through the qualities of hard vs. soft and matte vs. specular light sources, and how these choices impact your subjects.
This course is ideal for beginners and those ready to expand their creative lighting skills in the studio or on location. You’ll leave with the confidence to recreate these setups, apply techniques, and elevate your flash photography with ease.
All flash equipment and triggers will be provided.
