Bert Stephani’s Lighting Workshop

Thanks to all the preparation work by LIME reader Martha, I will travel to Norway for a 2-day workshop about portrait lighting on location on 23rd and 24th of May.

On Saturday, we’ll start out by going over the basics of light. We are going to learn to recognize good light and shape bad light into good light. In the afternoon we are going to learn how to MAKE the light with small flashes and mix ambient light with flash.

Bert will also discuss equipment choices and will squeeze in lots of tricks of the trade. With lots of real life examples and mini-shoots, we’ll make the theoretical part easy to digest.

On Sunday, you’ll get the chance to put everything you’ve learned into practice on a location shooting day. You will get some fun assignments, that you will work on in small groups under Bert’s guidance.

You don’t need experience with flash, tons of expensive gear or a degree in photography to benefit for this workshop. A decent knowledge of the basics like shutter speed / aperture and the motivation to improve your photography, is all you need.
