Workshop Overview

This is one of the most exciting one on one workshops that we teach. In a few hours, you will understand how to use the off camera flash or strobe to create any type of portraits that you can imagine.

The workshop lasts between two and three hours - we progress at your pace and cover as much material as you can handle at one time.

After we review your equipment, we will talk about camera settings and Manual mode. Once you understand the basic settings, we will move on to explain what every piece of equipment that you have or know of does, and how it influences the final photo.

This is a hands on workshop, which means that you will be taking most of the photos, both of the subject and of our setup.

Workshop Outline

• Manual camera mode
