This workshop is aimed at those who are interested in learning all the possibilities that studio photography has to offer.

You will learn the different studio flash lighting techniques to make beautiful portraits, still lives, or anything else you may have in mind!

A model will be provided for you to shoot during the session; advice on directing the model and posing technique will be given. We will also practice how to shoot objects, food and how to compose a creative still life.

You will be shown the effect of umbrellas, soft boxes and how to use reflectors.  You will also learn how to use both hard and soft lighting to change the effect of a portrait.

The teaching is presented in an easy to understand and entertaining way within a small group.
