I’ve been getting a bit backlogged in my blogging so I’m using today to catch up a bit. On Thursday, I had the honor of presenting to about 50 photographer at the Cary Photographic Artists meeting at Jordan Hall in Cary. The subject was how to effectively use flash and involved explaing all the different types of artifical lighting out there. We discussed the use of umbrellas, softboxes and flashes and how to use them to improve your photography skills. The class is about an hour which is a very short time to try and touch base on all the different concepts, so it was admittedly a condensed version.
After the official class and Q&A session were over, the attendees had a chance to shoot using my umbellas & softbox to get a better feel for how they can use these tools to alter and enhance your photography. I really enjoyed having the opportunity to present and hope to be invited back again. Here’s a couple of shots from the evening using both an umbrella & softbox as well as a flash and a wall.
