## Overview

Allowing your subjects to feel relaxed and natural when taking their portrait can be a challenge, especially when you’re worried about the technical side of your camera while interacting with clients. Join Sony Artisan Miguel Quiles as he discusses the pros of choosing mirrorless cameras to focus on the creative side of your images. Most mirrorless cameras are built around the same size sensors and have similar lens options as DSLRs. Become more portable while staying professional with your lightweight camera.
 
Miguel will share:

- How to use the correct lighting when shooting with a mirrorless camera   
- Tethering techniques using Capture One   
- Why it’s important to develop the connection with your subject for a stronger image 
- Techniques to help you focus more on the creative parts of an image and less on the technical aspects   

By the end of this class, you will feel more confident in connecting with your portrait subjects, and less concerned with how you use your camera to take the image.
