Your teacher
In this course you will learn basic lighting to light a subject to take a portrait.
I have been a passionate photographer since my young teens where I loved to photograph landscapes and whatever crossed my path with camera in hand. I took my first photography class when I was 17, The Photography Certificate and a few more in the following years to my final course an Advanced Diploma of Photography.
I have been a Portrait, Fashion and Lifestyle photographer for many years now and shoot the majority of my work in studios and on location.
This course is perfect for people with a basic knowledge of photography who want to go to the next level and learn basic lighting techniques.
