If you are already familiar with shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, then you have the fundamentals to dramatically improve the quality of your flash photos.
Itching to shoot better portraits? Better still life and product shots? But can't afford studio flash? Well, itch no more--we'll show you how to produce professional studio photos with affordable, portable, camera flash. Even the pros resort to camera flash in the field or indoors, some all the time and not just occasionally.
How do you control the intensity? Create soft shadows that don't scream "flash photography?" Balance the flash with available light? Or eliminate available light altogether?
The class will be handled by renowned wedding photographer Richel Mascariñas, who encounters "portable flash" situations all the time when shooting brides and bridal accessories. He'll shares the key concepts and techniques behind effective and creative lighting with flash. He will start with simple techniques that improve the results from a camera's built-in flash. He then focuses on fill flash techniques and on using flash as the key light.

Richel Mascariñas
Richel began capturing perfect wedding images early on as a hobbyist while still studying Architecture at the University of Santo Tomas. Upon graduating in1990, his wedding photography was relegated to weekend bookings while he worked in an architectural firm
in Makati.
His practice became fulltime in 1994 when he decided to give up his career to pursue his passion and he opened up his first studio (Heritage Home Video Production) a year later. He has covered wedding rites and receptions in almost all Christian and Non-Christian churches in Metro Manila, in different provinces and abroad.
He is currently an officer of the biggest and the most respected Wedding Photographers' organization in the country, the Wedding and Portrait Photographers of the Philippines (WPPP).
His passion for photography has made him one of the most sought after wedding photographers in the country and his expertise has been featured several times in TV programs, wedding magazines and major dailies.
