Using Your Flash

Learn to Produce Studio Quality Lighting with your Speedlight!

Understanding how to use both available light and flash in your photography will make you a more rounded, versatile photographer. In this class, we will teach you how to use a single flash speedlight mounted to your camera, and off-camera to achieve beautiful, flattering lighting on all your subjects.

We will discuss flash/speedlight modes and break down the functions and how to use them (We will focus on Canon and Nikon; however, other models are welcome as a lot of the information overlaps). Also through some practical exercises, you will learn how to use this powerful tool to compliment your photography. We will also discuss the challenges that may arise while using your flash both indoors and outdoors, and how to overcome them.

What is Covered in Using Your Flash:
  • Understanding ambient light and flash.
  • Functions of your speedlight.
  • TTL/ ETTL Mode.
  • Manual Flash Mode.
  • Sync Modes.
  • Directional light.
  • Bounce & Fill – Flash.
  • Creative Lighting techniques.
  • Modifiers & Gels.

We will use the last 20-30 minutes of the class to do a demo using a one -speedlight setup with and without modifiers.

What you will need to bring:
  • DSLR / Mirrorless camera.
  • Speedlight.
  • Tripod.
  • Note Taking Supplies.

When you have finished this workshop, you will have the knowledge and confidence to produce beautifully lit, creative images that are sharper, have more depth with more colourful backgrounds.
