Strategies for Shooting in Difficult Situations with Susan Stripling

This was an OK course to learn some tips for shooting in challenging situations; I did learn some good tips to find a way to work in Parking lots, hotel rooms, and with very poor lighting conditions. She is a woman with a very strong personality and is reflected on her style of teaching. She is humble enough to recognize that many of the things she learned is because of her husband, This is a practical and valuable teaching for beginners like me. Respectfully

Lots of useful information in this course.

I thought this course was amazing. I just finished it and am going to watch it again - it was exactly the course I needed. I don’t shoot weddings but this can be applied to so many different areas of photography. Loved it!!

Really enjoyed this course, I like Susans teaching style. I learnt a lot. As mentioned by other reviewers, yes there are quite a number of images with regards to detail shots. However, I would say that the techniques learnt would not just apply to details, they can apply to other situations as well. I also liked the BTS shots that Susan included. Personally I would recommend this course

I have been a photographer for 20 years (wedding, portraits, documentary) I wished Susan had a class like this one back in the day, it would have saved me from so many mistakes and stress that you only learn with experience from the proffessionals. Thank you for sharing your EXPERIENCE, stories and knowledge. Always nice to hear how good photographers work. Great class for beggipnners. I really enjoyed it, no matter how much experience you you have, you always learn something new. Thank you.

Great class!! I took away soooo much information, tips and tricks that I will be using for my next wedding! Thank you!

Crammed with useful info, ideas, tips and examples, with zero waffle. Invaluable for weddings (I would guess!) but mostly transferable to general photography.

I am amazed at how much Susan shares! If you watch and listen...she tells you EVERYthing about how she shoots. I'm not a wedding photographer, but I gleaned so much good info out of this that doesn't matter...I can use it anywhe

Love it! being a lifestyle photographer I always admire Susan. This course just takes you into her head, how to shoot, how can we use lights with in the room. I'll recommend for everyone who wants creative shots with natural lights.

Susan is amazing. This class is a pile of case studies, with behind the scenes and camera settings, to help you find the light. There are parts that can be repetitive, but that is because Susan is passionate about helping photographers memorize this message and put it into practice. A worthwhile watch!

Wow! Fabulous course! Ditto with the above reviews! Thank you, Susan, for giving us such helpful information for shooting weddings in such challenging situations. You have such a brilliant and quick mind for making the magic happen! The camera settings by each photograph was so very helpful. Since I didn't write anything down I shall be in search of your books. Susan's class is a must for anyone considering a career in Wedding Photography. Thank you Suan and Creative Live!

A lot of information and ideas, I'm looking forward to taking Susan's 30 Days class now.

As the description says: MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING! Spot on! Thank you Susan for sharing what you know and helping me become a more creative photographer despite less-than-perfect scenarios. As photographers, oftentimes, we find ourselves placed in a position where we are expected to create beautiful photos in the midst of difficult situations like low light scenes or crappy background. Her explanations are very clear and she definitely knows her craft. She cares about her clients and she's determined to give them great pictures despite what's thrown at her. If you are a strobist or use flash in most of your work, this course is not for you. But if you a natural light photographer and sometimes struggles to take photos indoor where light source is very challenging, take this course! You won't regret it!
