School / Limited Edition Events Secrets of close up and macro photography
Secrets of close up and macro photography
As you get closer to a subject, especially in nature, a whole new world of images opens up for you and this can be a very rewarding area of photography. However, as you get closer so you have more things to control such as depth of field and especially lighting.
This event looks at the aspects that need to be understood to get successful images within the close-up, macro and micro field.
Much of our macro and micro photography is lit by flash and we cover fully the techniques you need to use including the use of multiple flashguns using the Canon wireless flash system
