The Societies 2015 Convention

A Day at the Asylum! - Rick Friedman

Come join Boston based, internationally published photographer and creator of the "Location Lighting Workshops", Rick Friedman for a day of location lighting and photographing models at the old Caroline Gardens Chapel, aka The Asylum. This is an amazing place to shoot and we have it all to ourselves!

This workshop commences with ways to create wonderful light by using a single Speedlite and then proceeds to using multiple speedlights, mixing studio strobes and speedlights along with shooting with multiple studio strobes. Participants will also work on creating images with a mixture of strobe and ambient light.

The group will work with various types of light modifiers, soft boxes, strip lights, snoots, reflectors, gobos and grids. The participants will work with different ways to trigger the strobes and add and control colours balances and create colour backgrounds. Rick works with both Nikon and Canon systems.

Join us for a day lighting, laughing and creativity.
