FREE - Flash Techniques for Nature Photography
Learning to use flash seems to be one of the most intimidating subjects for a lot of photographers. There are many resources for portrait photographers to learn about light, but this webinar is designed especially for nature photographers.
In this free class, I’ll show you basic settings for using flash for macro photography. I’ll show you exactly how I set up my camera, the settings I use on my flash, and some handy ways to modify the light to create natural-looking light that enhances my subjects.
I will also explain how I use flash and flash extenders to add fill light when shooting with telephoto lenses. I will go over camera settings as well as flash settings for TTL and manual speedlights.
Thanks to Allen’s Camera for providing the MagMod Flash Modifiers that I used to create this class. Allen’s is a huge supporter of Wildside Nature Tours’ staff, clients, and friends.
