Dark and Moody Chocolate Photography: DIY Natural Light Studio

via Skillshare

Overview

This class is all about justifying the purchase of a fancy chocolate bar in the name of art!

Just kidding (kind of!)

We're going to be taking gorgeous, studio-quality low-light images with beautiful diffused window light. No studio experience necessary!


Here's what we'll cover:

  1. Identifying the best light in your space and the best times of day to utilize it
  2. Shaping the existing light for a dramatic, high contrast image
  3. Styling a scene with items around the house to tell a compelling story
  4. Reading imagery to understand and replicate lighting and angle styles
  5. Composition basics and tons of miscellaneous tips
  6. Quick technical review about White Balance and Metering
  7. Workflow with a DSLR and iPhone
  8. Editing iPhone images with VSCO app for Instagram

I can't wait to see your photos!
