Lots of things worth photographing do not happen under studio lights. You have to learn to work with the light you have if you want to take great photos in low-light situations. Join photographer Jared Polin for a look at what it takes to capture stunning images when the light is challenging.

In this course, you will learn how to read and work with the light in any situation and master the basics of low-light photography. Jared will show you how to troubleshoot on the fly to get proper exposure and the image you are after every time. You will develop the skills needed to walk into any lighting situation and know exactly what to do. Jared will take you out on location and show you just how far you can push your camera's ISO, and you will master techniques for photographing moving subjects, tight spaces, dark venues, and live concerts while managing noise and grain. You will also gain insight into the post-production process that works best for low-light photography.

This hands-on course is an essential experience for beginner photographers who want to confidently approach any low-light situation.

    Jared did not disappoint! He shared his knowledge of composition, exposure, and capturing the moment - all while engaging his audience and keeping things light and fun. I absolutely LOVE when how he sets up his equipment so that we can see each snapshot he takes, and then tells us why it's a good shot or why it's not a keeper. It's so easy to learn that way. I'm a second grade teacher (a.k.a. an educator) who, thanks to Jared can call myself a photographer. Jared is a photographer who is also a great educator!

    I completely enjoyed this class. I sat through every minute all three days. I already had purchased a video from Jared in the past so I was looking forward to his class. I love the way he teaches. My photos are already improving just from watching it. I was really afraid to bump up the ISO and now I am not. Excellent course!!!

    I'm a huge fan of Jared Polin; love his humorous and relaxed style of teaching. I love that he's passionate about photography, and that he is willing to share his experiences, opinions, and knowledge. I really enjoy Creative Live classes, and really enjoyed watching Jared teach in front of a live class. Hope to see more of Jared teaching on your platform.

    I've seen a few CreativeLive sessions and this was one of the best. It was very unique and engaging I liked the onsite shooting and review and critique. I have done teaching and I know how hard it is to teach WHILE you are doing and I think Jared did a great job of balancing that. I'm quite familiar with his FroKnowsPhoto podcast and website so I knew what to expect and both HE and CreativeLive EXCEEDED my expectations. Thanks much also for letting him use use studio for Raw Talk on the Road (my suggested name for it), I could see a real opportunity for CL to provide access to their facilities for others wanting to record training, etc.
