You can book onto either of these courses - you don’t need to book for both - though we would need to see your current work if you want to book Part 2 without first completing Part 1.

Studio Lighting Part 1

This is a 2 day course in the studio with an experienced model and all lighting equipment provided. There will be a maximum of six people on each course and it costs £300.

This is an introduction to studio lighting techniques and the equipment involved; it is hands on practical course.

Kevin Mason, the tutor, has a great deal of experience of studio lighting and on location for still and video, film and digital, and for personal work and commissions, his work has been published and exhibited internationally.

You will learn through practice and are encouraged to take a lot of images as throughout the day - this is not a ‘sit down theory’ course but is very hands on.

We provide all the equipment needed, you will only need to bring your Digital SLR (please check it can take a pc sync or hotshoe sync). We also supply an experienced and easy going model for the duration of the course. This is a very easygoing safe environment to learn how to interact with your subject and get the most out of new skills.

You will learn about lighting for many aspects of photography - but the overall aim is that you will begin to ‘see’ light differently whilst improving your technique. No experience of flash/strobe is strictly necessary - but we do try and keep groups together of the same level of experience. We are confident that you will gain a great deal from this course and leave a more enthusiastic photographer.

Past attendees have gone on to shoot adverting jobs in London and have their shots accepted into stock picture libraries, and previous assistants of Kevin have gone onto full time work in the industry.

We run the course approx 10am-5pm both days and we cover all aspects of using Strobes/Studio Flash from very basic set-ups to more complicated 4 light set-ups. You will learn to be fully confident in using Studio equipment, light meters, lighting a room, lighting a subject and working with a model - as well as being confident in experimenting with set-ups of your own. We will provide a tutor and Lighting Assistant all weekend and encourage you to shoot as much as possible as well as reviewing images and working on some posing or directing of the subject.
