Workshop A – The Art of Light: Foundations of Studio Lighting (3 hours)

See light differently. Shape it. Control it. Paint with it.

Step beyond the basics and enter the world where photography becomes the art of painting with light.
In this immersive 3-hour masterclass, you’ll learn to observe, shape, and control light with intention — transforming it from something accidental into a powerful storytelling tool.
No more guesswork. You’ll begin to truly see how light behaves and learn how to make it serve your vision.

What to expect

• Discover how light quality — from soft and flattering to sharp and dramatic — defines the mood of your images.
• Learn to balance brightness, shadow, and depth through falloff, distance, and power control.
• Explore how subtle changes in angle, modifier, and texture can sculpt the human face and body.
• Hands-on practice with professional studio lighting setups under clear step-by-step guidance.
• Photograph a model and experiment with creative light patterns to add emotion and depth to your portfolio.
