Description

This course consists of 2 major lessons:
1. Art of Seeing
2. Flash Photography Indoor

Learn how to use the many established photographic rules to make your pictures better. You will be exposed to a total of 7 of such foundational rules that will go on to create a total of 30-over sub-rules. By understanding and mastering these rules, your photography compositional skills will improve drastically, making your photos effortlessly BEAUTIFUL.

Learn how to use the flash in TTL mode on top of your camera in this course. You will learn how to beautifully use your flash INDOOR & OUTDOOR. You can now learn how to ditch those silly diffusion domes.

You will learn the rules of why Subjects SHOULD TYPICALLY be brighter than the background because the viewers' eyes tend to get attracted to brighter parts of the photo. With a flash, you can now decide how much DARKER you want to make your background. And making the background darker is good because this will allow your Subject to be brighter, allowing the viewers to easily focus on the subject.

This course has EXPANDED beyond indoor, as it now also covers using your Flash at night and in outdoor locations too.

Apart from videos, there are also articles exploring how to achieve a good exposure indoors while utilizing a hotshoe flash on TTL mode.
