Kira Derryberry's presentation will be cover two distinct topics:
Level Up: Unlock Your Potential
Have you ever met a carpenter who only uses a hammer? A chef who only uses a hot plate? As professionals we have a wealth of tools at our disposal to create our art. So why limit ourselves by shooting only one way? In this program Kira will discuss bridging the gap between photographic styles new and old. Learn how to unlock your potential as an artist by studying the foundations of lighting, posing, and composition. Kira will have you consider how to use the classic rules to your advantage and develop your own personal style as an artist by having more tools in your bag. Leave this program ready to shoot with purpose and intent. Get ready to level up!
Creating Natural Looking Light
In this program, Kira will jump start your range as a photographer by introducing a one light system. This is the perfect program if you are new to studio lighting! Learn how to simulate natural looking lighting when there may be no light available. Keep true to your photographic lighting style by being able to create the look and feel of natural light in any situation while increasing your skills!
