If you’re new to studio lighting, it is easy to get intimidated by the amount of stuff you have to learn.

CEPA will provide studio space and equipment and introduce you to some of the most basic studio lighting equipment, and terms you will need to navigate a photography studio.
Class is taught by one of CEPA’s veteran instructors – Peter Meszynski (see more about Peter below). First class is online, second is in CEPA’s photo studio. By the end of the lab session, you’ll have the skills to tackle any type of indoor shoot, whether it’s in a huge warehouse or your spare bedroom.
In this class you will learn how to:
· Set your ISO, shutter speed and aperture.
· Understand depth of field and shooting groups.
· Use all sorts of flashes, including strobes and hot shoe flashes, as well as modifiers.
