A 1-Day Photography Class for Ages 16+
The workshop will focus on what is possible with one light, a flash, on and off-camera. This will be a hands on, in the field, multiple scenario, intensive crash course in what you can do with “one light.”
The class will begin at CEPA and then move to an actual shoot at the Nash Lofts (2 mins up the road from CEPA) for a practical, hands on component to see the techniques covered in action.
DSLR or comparable mirrorless system with a hotshoe adapter required. We will show you how to get that flash off-camera, and what we can do with light.
If you are new to flash photography, or an experienced pro, or have just been intimidated by guide numbers, and the inverse square law, we can offer some insight to the possibilities of one light photography.
Class is taught by one of CEPA’s veteran instructors, Stephen Gabris. Stephen is the ASMPWNY chapter president, an editorial photographer for Buffalo Spree Magazine, and a portrait photographer among other things.
