Welcome to Portrait Photography - Lighting and Posing Models!

Through this course, we will take an in-depth behind the scenes look at both a Commercial Photography Setup and an Editorial Photography Setup. While the content for the lessons is created within a studio environment, the tips and techniques are applicable to any space, such that you can recreate them from the comfort of your own home!

You don't have to worry about having access to expensive camera gear, as the lighting setups are able to be recreated whether you are using a DSLR and Studio Lighting, or your phone and a couple of lamps from around the house.

By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge of:

How to balance artificial and ambient light to create a natural portrait look
How to use properties of light to create a dramatic editorial image
Working with location, wardrobe, and angle to create a visually compelling picture
Working with your subject to make them comfortable and craft a beautiful photograph
Editing techniques to select, retouch and polish your images

While this course is mainly for the more advanced photographer, creatives of any level can benefit from the content within. No matter your genre, these lessons will give you the ability to thoughtfully add mood, dimension, and feeling to your photographs.

If you have been intimidated by working with models or using complex lighting setups, this course will demystify those fears and give you the tools to level up your imagery today. I look forward to seeing how you take these techniques and use them in your photography!
