OVERVIEW

Nevada Wier is an avid user of only one flash, on the camera, when she travels. In two, 2-hour sessions, she will explain how she manages to make natural and compelling images using TTL flash on the go. She will help you set up your flash for subtle and creative lighting. You will also learn techniques for stopping action with slow shutter speeds and while panning, effective techniques for bouncing off walls and ceilings, when to use off-camera flash, and many other simple techniques. This seminar is geared towards photographers who use a separate dedicated flash, not a pop-up flash (although some of the techniques will work for a pop-up) and want to primarily learn on-camera flash techniques. 

SCHEDULE

Session One live on Zoom

Topics covered: How to set up your off-camera flash. The theory of Balanced Fill-Flash in different lighting and environmental condition. Understanding Ambient Light and Fill-Flash. How to effectively use bounce fill-flash. Essential flash accessories that fit in your camera bag, including what modifiers and gels to use in different situations. 

Session Two live on Zoom

How to use a flash while Panning. Using flash to stop action. Understanding Rear Curtain Sync and Hi-Speed Sync. Off-Camera flash. How to use reflectors and a small LED light effectively.

Sessions will be recorded for you to view later on a private channel exclusive to participants so that you can review Nevada’s lessons after the workshop is complete.

Notes

Suggested Equipment: An off-camera flash is not essential for this seminar. However, it is advantageous so that you can master the setup, begin to practice the techniques, and ask questions during the sessions. If you do have a flash, please ensure that it is dedicated to your camera system and swivels up and down as well as side to side. Please check that you can program the output of the intensity of your flash either directly on the flash or on the camera. 

If you have any questions, please email Nevada. She does not know all the different flash manufacturers, but she will try and help the best she can with suggestions. She will be sending out a detailed letter with more information to each participant before the seminar begins.
