Learn to take beautifully illuminated and atmospheric portraits by manipulating and working with natural light.

Duration
3h over 1 session

Course Description

There is arguably no factor more essential and crucial than light in photography (a word whose etymology also means ‘drawing with light’). A key element to improving one’s photography skills lies in learning how to control and manipulate light, not only to adjust brightness, but also create an intended tone, mood, and atmosphere.

In this workshop, you will get to explore how to make the best use of natural lighting when it comes to portraiture, in both indoor and outdoor settings. Through a series of quick exercises, you will discover how to:
- Judge natural light quality effectively
- Position your subject accurately
- Use reflectors and backgrounds to improvise available light
- Create an intended mood successfully
- Prepare for a smoother shooting session

If you’ve always wanted to learn how to take headshots suitable for use on LinkedIn, in resume portfolios, and for general professional use without the use of special lighting equipment, this workshop is for you!
