Creative technique The art of light
Art of light
Lighting is what photography is all about. The lighting and its correct use can make the difference between a good image and a stunning image. Artists have used light in their paintings throughout the years to bring them to life and create shape, depth and creativity to their work.
This course, will look at all aspects of lighting and how we as photographers can best use the light to be creative and produce stunning images. We will get you thinking about the lighting just as much as thinking about the subject and inspire you to use the lighting in the best possible way.

Important information
Delegates get the most benefit from the Art of series of courses if they have undertaken the core “understanding” courses in our seminar programme as we do not have time on these events to cover in detail the settings on individual models.
