Photographers spend massive quantities of effort discussing light and the varied qualities of light – to get a better understanding of shadows! With “Mastering Shadows, Form and Texture In Photography” you will have it!
Ambient Light: Ambient light is the sort of light we’ll be working with most often. Here we completely investigate what it is and how to work with it! Once we know how to work with the light, we can manipulate the shadows that define our shapes and textures.
The Main/Key Light: You can’t discover how to control the shadows, you’ll need to fully understand the light that’s forming them! Each light source whether it is ambient light or studio strobes (or both) makes its own set of shadows. And its own set of problems and opportunities!
Shadows: The way they are shaped, their position and how deep the shadows are - and your ability to control them - is what’ll change your photographs from dull, lifeless "pictures" into art pieces you’ll be proud to not just put on your wall, but you will be proud to sign them as well!
The Fill Light: Here is the key to mastering the darkness of the shadows and bringing emotion into your work.
Fixing Facial Flaws Using (Or Not Using) Shadows: Each face and each scene will have flaws that you’ll be able to "repair" in your camera. Each subject you photograph deserves and wants to look like a million bucks! It is your goal as a photographer to make that happen.
Glare: Reflections of light in eyeglasses can (without doubt) ruin a portrait. Aditionally it is extremely difficult to "fix" with Photoshop. Dealing with it in the camera is basically easy once you learn how.
You are closer than you’d imagine to shooting truly amazing photographs that’ll be the envy of your associates and family!
