Class Description:

Taking the Intimidation out of Flash Photography

Brandon will show how easy it can be to use portable speedlites both in the studio and outdoors. Don’t let the lights intimidate you, as they can be amazing tools and chances are that you probably own at least one portable flash already! During the class, we will troubleshoot common issues with using speedlites and how to correct those issues on the fly.

For this demonstration, Brandon will be using portable speedlites, along with a variety of light modifiers to achieve amazing images that will help your photography immediately. Bring your camera to the class and use our speedlites to make some images yourself!
