## Overview

As a photographer, nothing defines your talent more than your ability to capture, create, and place the right lighting. Award-winning portrait photographer Sue Bryce joins studio lighting expert Felix Kunze for a portrait lighting masterclass covering the most universally used portrait scenarios. You'll learn how to work with both natural and studio light so you're prepared to walk into any environment and take a gorgeous photograph.

Sue, internationally renowned for her ability to paint portrait subjects with the glow of natural light, will teach you how she sets up different lighting scenarios. Felix, who's worked with some of the top photographers in the world, will then take the reins and replicate Sue's shot using artificial lighting techniques he's honed through experience. The two seasoned photographers will take turns shooting, each learning from and asking questions of the other in real time.

By the end of this course, you'll know how to shoot a variety of portrait styles, including the classic beauty shot, the silhouette, high-contrast glamour, the soft flat light portrait, and old-school Hollywood glamour, all with both natural and artificial light.
