Join photographer and educator Jeff Carpenter for an
engaging evening demonstration on the fundamentals of portrait lighting.
Starting with a single light setup and building to multi-light arrangements,
Jeff will show how simple adjustments in placement, power, and modifiers can
completely transform a portrait. You’ll see how to shape mood, balance light
with the environment, and create both clean commercial looks and more dramatic
styles.
This class is designed to
give you a strong foundation and plenty of inspiration. If you’re ready to take
things even further, join Jeff for the half day hands on workshop the following
day where you’ll put these techniques into practice and create your own
portfolio ready images.
Class 2: Half Day Hands On Workshop: Lighting in
Action
Build on what you learned in the Friday evening session with
this interactive workshop led by Jeff Carpenter. Over the course of the
morning, you’ll move beyond theory and get hands-on experience creating images
with Profoto lighting. Together, we’ll explore headshots, lifestyle portraits,
and more creative setups, focusing on how to balance multiple light sources and
use simple adjustments to completely change the mood of a scene.
This workshop is about shooting, experimenting, and
walking away with practical skills and portfolio worthy results. Space is
limited to ensure everyone gets personal instruction and dedicated shooting
time.
