Bert Stephani Workshop to take place in Richmond RACC
I visited a couple of locations for the workshop and one was booked 🙂
The venue for Day 1 will be held in the heart of Richmond in the Parkshot Richmond Adult Community College (RACC) building which is about 2 minutes walk from Richmond station and is also easily accessible by road, tube and bus.
We will have pretty much the run of the college, but we’ll be based in 1 room and we can use the corridors and the gardens if required (depends on what Bert wants to do)
The second day we’ll be exploring different locations in a walking distance in and around Richmond.
On both days the workshop we will gather at 09:30, start at 10:00 and aim to finish at around 18:00
Directions, other information and forms will be emailed to each participant prior to the WorkshopFinal location to be booked. We’ll update the main Event Page if there is more information
Why a photographer should value their work
A great video was sent to me from a photographer friend that details the reasons why a photographer should value their work and not devalue it. It also talks about negociating a middle ground on contracts and to work with your client, otherwise it can damage your long term business12m30s
WORKSHOP : 2-day On Location Lighting in London with Bert Stephani
The Workshop:
On Monday, we’ll start out by going over the basics of light. We’re 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 Tuesday, you’ll get the chance to put everything you’ve learned into practice on a location shooting day. You’ll get some fun assignments, that you will work on in small groups under Bert’s guidance.
You don’t need any experience with flash, tons of expensive gear or a degree in photography to benefit from this workshop. A decent knowledge of the basics like shutter speed / aperture and the motivation to improve your photography, is all you need. If those attending are a bit more advanced with lighting then we’ll quickly progress to advanced techniques over the days.
