Who should attend?

This workshop is recommended for portrait photographers who wish to expand their creative abilities in a studio environment. All participants should know how to use their cameras.

What you will learn:

How to use:

• hard light
• soft light
• key light
• fill light
• kickers and backlights

Empowering you to be able to create portraits of all styles. Learn how to control contrast, how to separate the foreground and background lighting in a shot, and how to use reflectors in beauty photography. There is no substitute for a thorough understanding of light and its application when creating portraits in the studio, and this masterclass in lighting for portraits will demonstrate how studio space can be used to give you total control of your environment. The skills and the knowledge you take from this workshop will be equally valid whether you work on location or in the studio.

What you will have at the end of the day to take away:

1. You will be shooting portfolio images you can use right away, on your website, in brochures or on your studio walls. The models we use are professionals and will be patient with us.

2. You will have a new repertoire of lighting styles and images you can shoot in your own studio spaces. This will give you the edge over your competition and you will feel a renewed excitement for studio shooting.

Studio Lighting

Take a look at a video on the blog here. The session was for the elite Evolve group of photographers on a 10 month intensive business training programme. All the pictures were shot against a grey or white background. The colour was added with filter gels.

What kit you will need:

1. A DSLR camera. Any make will do.
2. Two or three lenses covering 24mm to 200mm approx. with or without gaps in the coverage.
3. Camera cards and batteries.
4. If you want to bring a laptop there will be adequate space for you to set it up.

>> When booking your place please state in 'additional information' what camera kit you'll be using (ie Canon/Nikon) <<

Once you understand great light,
you will be able to find it almost anywhere.

DOUGLAS SAID: Just wanted to say thanks for a great day last Thursday. The images are fantastic, learned loads and really enjoyed it. Still can’t get over what you can do with a single light! I’ll definitely have to go on one of your street shooting courses now!

MICHAEL SAID: Many thanks for another great workshop. I have lots of shots that I like and will be on there way to Marko and his team very shortly.

STEVE SAID:
I have so many good shots from this workshop that I’m having trouble editing them to get a selection for my blog/portfolio etc. It was an excellent day and I’m already using the techniques to help me shoot some much more creative studio work. Looking forward to the urban portraits workshop in June.

CAROLE SAID:
Thanks Damien it was a brilliant day that has totally changed the way I will shoot in my studio. I loved it from begining to end and have some great ‘wow’ shots to look back on. Its amazing to see how much can be done in a studio of that size and see the different effects of the lighting accessories. Having only 3 people made it very relaxed and comfortable. Of course Sarah was a star and Vicki did a wonderful job : ) Another workshop that I’m sure will be very popular and which I would recommend to anyone.

ROB SAID: I love how you always succeed in getting a maximum result out of a (almost) minimal setup, whether on location or in the studio. Compliments. Well, the models don’t hurt either.
