AN INTRODUCTION TO STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY
Chris Sharples BCC February2013
I hope to :
1. Explain links with Landscape Photography2. …Links to Studio Night next meeting3. Things you can do in your own time...
- window photography with your own equipment- basic 2 light setup with club equipment- low key Black and White setup with club equipment
4. Ask you what you would like for the Studio Evening
Therefore I plan to cover:
1. What you already do/don't know2. Simplest setup - light from a window and a
flash /or reflector3. The theory and practice behind a two light
set upfor 45° lightingfor low key lighting / B&W
4. Lightroom processing for each
