Alright, photographer friends—let’s talk about flash.
Not the deer-in-headlights kind, but the game-changing, confidence-boosting, make-your-images-pop kind. MI Studio Space is beyond excited to host Lighting Without Fear: Flash Photography Bootcamp with none other than Erik, Holladay Photography—a lighting wizard with the skills (and stories) to back it up.
This workshop isn’t just about turning your flash on and hoping for the best. It’s about understanding light, shaping it, and making it work for YOU. You’ll start with the basics of Off-Camera Flash (OCF) and work your way up, learning how to use modifiers like a pro. And the best part? You’ll be hands-on, shooting real models in real-time, dialing in your skills and walking away with the confidence to make light do exactly what you want.
Important note: This is NOT a beginner photography course. You must be comfortable with your camera and know how to shoot in Manual Mode with natural light. If you’re still figuring out ISO from F-stop, this isn’t your stop (yet).
If you’ve been avoiding flash like it’s some mysterious beast—this is your chance to tame it. Come ready to learn, shoot, and leave with the skills to level up your art and your business.
Ready to make light work for you? Let’s do this.
The day’s highlight?
A hands-on session with multiple lighting setups that will transform the way you see and capture light. It’s not just learning; it’s an experiential journey to elevate your photography portfolio.
Here’s your day packed with learning and networking:
• 8:30-9 AM: Meet & Greet over Coffee & Bagels – kickstart the day with good vibes!
• 9-10 AM: Dive into the basics of Off-Camera Flash (OCF) – where it all begins.
