OVERVIEW
Understand your flash and learn the basics of quality flash photography. Explore the blending of flash with daylight, setting proper exposures, and using flash indoors, outdoors and in the digital world.
KNOWLEDGE PREREQUISITES
You must be very knowledgeable of your camera and know how to adjust Aperture, Exposure (Shutter), and Sensitivity (ISO) on your own camera like the back of your hands.
Note: Instructors are limited and to be fair to your fellow-classmates, we cannot spend a lot of time teaching you how to use your camera when that information is already in your manual.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
A camera and a hot shoe flash is required for this session. Bring your own equipment.
