Where an artist uses paint to put a vision on canvas, a photographer uses light.  This is why it is important to begin to not only “see” light and recognize its many qualities, it is also important to understand its nature and how to control it.

 Join Steve Kozak as he shares tips, techniques and creative decisions that will help you create images that your clients will love.  Participants will learn to recognize and create specific lighting patterns and how to use lighting to tell the story. 

 Even if you have never used studio lighting, Steve will show you why it could make a huge impact on your bottom line.  The concepts that will be covered pertain to those who use natural light and studio light. 

 Participants will learn:

  • How to find the best light
  • the art of creating portraits using natural light
  • Working in bad lighting
  • What you have been doing wrong all this time
  • How to make your work stand out
  • Overcoming your portable flash
  • Studio lighting made easy
  • And so much more

If you desire to stop “taking pictures” and start “creating images”, then don’t  miss this opportunity to grow your skills and fine-tune your craft to become the confident, competent photographer you desire to be.
