2 Seattle Lighting Workshops on October 11th and 12th.

October is Lighting Month and I will be heading up to Seattle next month for two lighting workshops at Glazer’s Camera.

Second date added for the Shadows & Light: A Speedlight Workshop with Jayesunn Krump

Shadows & Light:  A Speedlight Workshop

with Jayesunn Krump

Hosted by Pro Photo Supply

---

When shooting on location you need small, portable tools that you can depend on to create beautiful light.  Speedlights are an inexpensive and effective alternative to using big studio strobes.  In this hands-on workshop, Jayesunn Krump will teach you to use your flash to its fullest potential.  Through his control of shadow and light, Jayesunn takes unique and striking portraits and he will teach you the techniques he uses to create powerful images.  Topics covered include:

• On- and off-camera flash techniques
• Flash modification using reflectors, snoots, grids, soft boxes, and umbrellas
• Gelling your flash for color correction and dramatic effect
• One light, multiple light, and backlighting set-ups
• Posing your subject

Here are some of the specifics for the workshop:

Weekend Workshop

Back in Portland after a fantastic weekend up in Seattle teaching a lighting workshop for ExpoImaging over at Glazer’s Camera.

We spent the weekend at the amazing Alexis Hotel and were able to make our way down to Pike Place Market to checkout the sites. It was a very productive trip on many levels. With the exception of Ashlee coming down with a vicious cold of course.

I would like to thank everyone who attended the workshop and I am so looking forward to the next one!

For those of you that did attend and asked for the slides that I used in my presentation here is a link to the Shadows & Light Workshop slides.

If you are in the Seattle area and you have not gone over and shopped at Glazer’s Camera you should take the time and check the store out. It is an amazing store with a great inventory and awesome employees. Thanks again for all of your help!
