Discover creative portrait lighting with LED light tubes, colour and shadow while photographing professional models Jolie & Holly.
Creative LED Portrait Workshop
Discover how a handful of portable LED lights can transform an ordinary studio portrait into something bold, cinematic and unforgettable.
Join me for an afternoon of creative portrait photography as we explore colour, contrast, shadows and mood using continuous LED lighting. Working with professional models Jolie and Holly, you'll learn how to use light as both your illumination and your creative subject.
We'll create a variety of striking looks, from dramatic low-key portraits and graphic black & white images to vibrant RGB lighting, coloured gels and glowing light tubes that become part of the composition.
This is a hands-on workshop with plenty of shooting opportunities, guidance and time to experiment with different lighting styles.
Whether you're new to continuous lighting or looking for fresh creative ideas, you'll leave with new techniques and a portfolio full of eye-catching images.
