Photographers use up huge amounts of time talking about light and various types of light – just to get a more complete understanding of shadows! With “Photo Mastery - Shadows, Form And Texture” you will have it!
Ambient Light: This is the sort of light we will be working with the most. Here we completely cover what it is plus the best ways to use it! After we’ve learned how to manipulate the light, we are able to manipulate the shadow qualities that form our shapes and textures.
The Key/Main Light: You can’t learn to control the shadows, you’ll need to fully understand the illumination that’s making them! Each light source whether it’s natural light or studio strobes (or both) makes its unique set of shadows. And its unique set of problems and opportunities!
Shadows: The way they are shaped, their location and how deep the shadows are - and your ability to control them - is what will change your photographs from boring, lifeless "pictures" into works of art you’ll be proud to not just put on your wall, but you’ll be excited about signing them as well!
The Fill Light: Here is the key to mastering the darkness of your shadows and bringing emotion into your art.
Fixing Problem Areas Using (Or Not Using) Shadows: Every face and every scene will have flaws that you can "repair" in the camera. Each model you photograph wants and deserves to look like a million bucks! It's your responsibility as the shooter to make sure it happens.
Glare: Reflections of light in glasses can (without doubt) detroy a photograph. Plus it is extremely hard to "handle it" with PS. Dealing with it in the camera is extremely easy once you learn how.
You are closer than you imagine to creating truly amazing photographs that will be the envy of your friends and family!
