Presentation – Creating An Outdoor Studio
Controlling a scene outdoors can sometimes be a daunting endeavor for any photographer. Shooting at “Golden Hour” may not always be an option, as many times we are pressed to shoot in a less than ideal lighting scenario. In this private workshop, Hernan will share his experience in how he photographs celebrities and actors on location, at any given time of the day. He will share the challenges he has experienced, and the proper lighting adjustments he has made using specific tools and modifiers. This has allowed him to create impactful portraits with a wide range of lighting styles.
