Our Philosophy:
We’re serious about learning! With our methods of comprehensive learning we do the proverbial “teaching you how to fish rather than giving you a fish”. When you understand how something works you can minimize the need for memorization and more importantly can adapt it to your own needs and preferences!
The principals and techniques you learn in our Lighting 101 workshops will apply universally to all photography lighting situations.
All of our workshops include valuable handouts informational tools (even a wallet card now), and our methods for controlling light. We have spent years of research and experimentation and have read a “library worth” of books. The reasoning for this is that every author seems to leave some point unexplained, explained poorly, or just shrouded in mystery. We have compiled all of what we have learned it into one comprehensive source for you!
Who else would use a kid’s swimming pool, a bucket, and a hose to explain flash and ambient exposure? But believe me…you will understand it better than anyone else after I explain it! |
