Dynamic High Key Studio Lighting for High-Impact Looks

Details

Discover the brilliance of high-key photography with "Dynamic High Key Lighting for High-Impact Looks," a hands-on workshop led by the renowned photographer David Arnold. This session focuses on creating bright, vibrant portraits using expertly lit backgrounds and dynamic setups.

The workshop is divided into three unique lighting looks, each beginning with a 10-minute demonstration by David Arnold:

  • Look 1: Overhead Lighting with Background Lights – Learn to create dramatic highlights using an overhead light, paired with two background lights for a clean, high-key effect.
  • Look 2: Side Lighting with Background Lights – Master side lighting to add depth and contrast while keeping the backdrop evenly illuminated.
  • Look 3: Distant Fill with Background Lights – Achieve soft, subtle fill light for natural tones and a pristine background.

After each demo, participants will take turns working directly with a professional model to apply what they’ve learned. The model will change looks between setups to provide a variety of styles for your portfolio.
