Introduction
If you’re passionate about controlled photography, creating unique lighting effects, and producing striking visuals, this Studio Lighting course is made for you. Lighting isn’t just a technical aspect of photography—it’s the key to shaping emotion, storytelling, and style. In this course, you’ll learn how to master studio flash lighting, from understanding light modifiers to designing setups that define form, enhance mood, and elevate your images with professional polish.
Course Description & Expectations
From the very beginning of this course, you will experience a sense of accomplishment as you leave the first lesson equipped with the ability to confidently operate your camera with studio flash. You will gain expertise in understanding the intricacies of the differences between natural and studio lighting. Additionally, you will start to develop a keen eye for recognizing the quality and characteristics of light, all from the first session.
In the subsequent sessions, you will explore the concept of light sculpting and learn how to effectively create dramatic images with specific lighting effects based on your vision. Ultimately, you will acquire the skills to go beyond simply posing pictures, instead telling compelling stories through your lighting.
