Control Your Lighting and Composition


Certificate in Photography for Beginners

Control Your Lighting and Composition are two exciting and practical tutorials that will give you the ability to construct dynamic framing and identify composition.  More importantly we look at natural lighting and discover how to identify where light is coming from and how to control and manipulate light to achieve a specific effect.  Identifying different qualities of light, knowing when to shoot and what type of light suits a specific subject all work together, this continuity of lighting will allow you to stop taking snap shots and start producing beautiful photographic imagery.
