📸 Lights, camera, PORTRAITS! 💡
Our studio session got off to a slightly delayed start thanks to some technical gremlins, but it was absolutely worth the wait! 😄
Lenny kicked things off with the essentials of camera settings and off-camera flash sync, with club members stepping up as models so everyone could see the theory in action. After the break, our brave men took their turn in front of the lens, and the projector and screen meant we could watch every shot appear as it was taken. Instant feedback, instant learning! 🙌
We also got a close look at barn doors and gels on one of the flashes, showing how you can shape and colour your light to completely change the mood of a portrait. 🎨✨
It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening packed with tips, tricks and plenty of shared experience. A huge thank you to:
👏 Lenny for running the session
🔧 Bill, Paul & Debbie for rescuing the tech
🙋 Everyone who volunteered to model. You’re the reason we could learn so much!
🗓️ Next week: We’re welcoming talented Scottish wildlife photographer Michael Cook. Expect stunning images, great stories and plenty of inspiration. Don’t miss it!
