SAVE THE DATE….

A small, hands-on workshop for photographers who want to finally master their own flash.

If your flash leaves you scratching your head, second-guessing your settings or muttering a few colourful words under your breath, you’re not alone. Flash can be intimidating, but it absolutely does not have to be. This class is designed to clear the fog, cut through the confusion and give you real confidence with your own gear, no matter the brand.

This is a practical, small-group session, so you’ll spend most of your time actually using your flash, experimenting and understanding how each setting affects your images. By the end, you’ll know exactly what your flash is doing and why, and you’ll be able to shape light the way you want rather than hoping for the best.

What You’ll Learn

• How flash works and why it behaves the way it does

• Manual mode, power settings and when to use them

• TTL (where applicable), what it does well and where it can trip you up

• On-camera vs off-camera flash

• How to control direction, quality and falloff

• Practical lighting setups you can re-create at home

• Troubleshooting common flash disasters

• A mini hands-on shoot so you can put everything into practice

Who This Class Is For

• New and intermediate photographers who want clarity and confidence

• Anyone who bought a flash and thought, “I’ll learn it later”

• Natural light shooters who want to expand their lighting toolbox

• Creatives who want more control, consistency and polish in their portraits, still life or product work

What to Bring

• Your camera

• Your own flash (speedlight or similar)

• Fresh batteries

• Any triggers or cables you already have

• A willingness to experiment and have some fun

Why You’ll Love It

Because once you understand flash, everything changes. You’ll shoot faster, more confidently and with far more creative freedom. Flash stops being that scary mystery box and becomes one of the most powerful tools in your kit.
