If you want to take your photography to the next level and understand how to shape and manipulate light, then join us at TFC London for An Introduction to Studio lighting.
Tickets available for just £79
Hosted by The Light Doctor, Simon Burfoot, and in association with Elinchrom, you'll learn how to control light using modifiers and reflectors, light different subjects and get as much right in-camera to save you a lot of time in post-production. We’ll go through everything from simple one-light setups and the differences between hard & soft/matt & specular light sources; to the effect these have on the subject in terms of ‘in-camera’ skin smoothing and the control of exposure with your camera’s aperture.
Aimed at beginners or those using speedlights who want to become more creative in their studio or out on location, you’ll leave the workshop with the confidence to recreate the setups, understand the techniques and be able to put them into practice.
All Elinchrom flash equipment and triggers will be provided.
