Here we go!!! Today starts our month of teaching classes at Artis in Leavenworth, WA. Artis is formerly Icicle Arts and this will be our second year teaching classes through the month of April.
This years class will focus on Environmental Portraits, or Portraits in Nature, with a focus on lighting our subjects while exposing for the background. There are many expensive lighting tools that we could purchase to illuminate our subject but we are going to focus on using "guerrilla lighting" techniques to light our subjects. Guerrilla Lighting just refers to using simple techniques and/or what is around us to light our subjects. Often it's not practical to carry heavy lighting equipment, and since we are also working with adults and young kids, we will focus on using what we have at home or what is around us to create the images that we want not the images that the camera takes...
We are super excited for this years classes and there is still time to register if you are interested...!!!
