Is this for me?
The session is very hands-on, we will be using a fully equipped studio with a range of Broncolour lights, a wide choice of props, backgrounds and accessories. At the end of the session, not only will you gain confidence for shooting in a studio environment, you’ll understand how to shoot at home and you will also walk away with some great images for your portfolio.
What to bring
Please bring any camera that allows full manual control (M on program dial). A DSLR is recommended, however, most of the mirrorless compact systems / micro-four-thirds and bridge cameras should also be suitable. Ideally you will need a tripod and a lens in the range of 50mm – 100mm.
