Once you’ve learned the basic principles of how the Canon Speedlite system works, this class goes many steps beyond our beginning flash class. You’ll learn how to use single or multiple flash units off-camera to create beautiful light ANYWHERE!

Your instructor, David Henry, will show you how he uses multiple Speedlite 600EX-RT flash units in his work as a photojournalist to create special lighting environments for a scene to enhance the subject, all controlled wirelessly from the camera. He’ll show you how he uses Speedlites for everything from simple head-and-shoulders portraits to street scenes or illuminating interiors.

David will share the keys to softening the light output with modifiers for a more natural look. He’ll also touch on filtering the color of the light on the subject to match the ambient surroundings, again, for a more pleasing and natural feel and much more.
