An Introduction to Flash Lighting with Gary Hill
Learn the art of flash lighting in this hands-on workshop with award-winning photographer Gary Hill. Whether you're new to using flash or looking to refine your technique, this course will teach you how to control light effectively using modifiers and reflectors. You'll explore how different light sources, and learn how to achieve flattering skin tones straight out of the camera.
Through guided demonstrations and practical exercises, you'll work with various lighting setups and discover how aperture plays a key role in exposure control. By the end of the session, you’ll have the confidence to shape light creatively and capture professional-quality images while reducing the need for excessive post-production.
All flash equipment and triggers will be provided.
