We spend huge quantities of time discussing light and various qualities 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’ll be using most often. Here we thoroughly cover what it is and the best ways to use it! Once we know how to control the light, we are able to manipulate the shadow qualities that create our shapes and textures.
The Key/Main Light: Before you can discover how to control the shadows, you have to completely understand the illumination that’s making them! Each type of light whether it is ambient light or studio light (or both) creates its unique set of shadows. As well as 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’ll change your photos from dull, lifeless "snapshots" into something you will be proud to not just put on your wall, but you’ll be proud to sign them as well!
The Fill Light: Here’s the key to controlling the darkness of the shadows and bringing emotion into your work.
Solving Problem Areas With (Or Without) Shadows: Every face and every scene has flawed areas that you’ll be able to "solve" in the camera. Each model you’ll shoot wants and deserves to look like a million bucks! It's your goal as a shooter to make that happen.
Glare: Reflections of light in eyeglasses can (without doubt) detroy a portrait. Aditionally it's extremely difficult to "handle it" in PS. Fixing it in camera is basically easy once you know how.
You are closer than you’d imagine to creating truly stunning photos that will be the envy of your associates and family!
