Class Description

Description

While natural light serves many purposes well, controlling light more effectively with flash technology elevates your photography significantly. A small external flash empowers you to optimize outdoor shooting in direct sunlight or dappled shade, and adds warmth to overcast conditions.

Mike Hagen teaches you how to take command of your lighting and, consequently, your photographic results. If you're new to flash photography, this course covers essential fundamentals:

  • Master your camera and flash settings for proper exposure
  • Build ambient light exposure as your baseline
  • Employ flash both on-camera and off-camera effectively
  • Freeze action and introduce creative motion blur
  • Use modifiers and reflectors with off-camera flash positioning

Whether you're photographing portraits, sports, or macro subjects, Mike demonstrates how to define your subject and enhance your images across all scenarios. This course builds naturally on Mike's previous flash course and provides the confidence to use flash creatively in every shooting situation.
