Let an expert photographer guide you through the basics and intricacies of lighting, in this helpful, engaging course delivered like a creative workshop.

When it comes to the art of photography, lighting is everything. It doesn't matter what your subject is or how your composition is structured, or whether you're shooting in a studio or outdoors. If you don't have great lighting, you can't have a great photograph.
Knowing how to use this vital tool-how to take advantage of light, how to create it, and even how to shoot around it-is a crucial skill for anyone with a camera to learn, hone, and master.
What are some prevalent myths about using your camera's flash?
How can you play with ambient light for more dramatic effects?
What tips should you keep in mind when using a direct flash?
How can you color light for creative and corrective effects?
These are just a few of the many pressing questions about lighting answered in Lighting 101. Photography expert Pye Jirsa guides you through the basics and intricacies of lighting in a way that makes this critical aspect of photography approachable and understandable. Delivered like a creative workshop, where you're the star student, these lesssons empower you with the knowledge and confidence to light your compositions, and to discover new levels of artistry in the photos you take.
Take Control of Your Lighting
Throughout these lessons, Pye teaches you how to get over any uncertainty you might have about lighting, and how to master light sources to take your photography to bold new heights of dramatic and creative expression.
The lessons and virtual workshops that make up Lighting 101 are designed to cover all the fundamentals of lighting, including
How your camera's flash can help when you're going for natural-type images,
How to balance flash with ambient lighting to capture a subject's motion,
What are real-world applications and principles of the inverse square law of light,
What is the most important lighting gear for your camera-and when to use it,
How to shoot in setups involving multiple bounce points for camera flash,
What is the easy-to-learn art of coloring light for corrective effect in your photographs, and
How flash modifiers can help shape light and create different looks for a single shot.
Explore Case Studies in Lighting
After you've built a fantastic foundation in lighting, flash, and flash modification, you'll spend several lessons at the end of Lighting 101 focusing on specific case studies in lighting. You'll learn the step-by-step strategies and techniques a master photographer uses to arrive at breathtaking shots of desert sunsets, family portraits, and more.
You'll also gain insights into how photographers in unexpected situations use their knowledge and tools they have on hand when they just have to visually capture something in front of them.
"You're always going to be in situations where you don't necessarily have the gear you might need with you," Pye says. "Or maybe you're just in a situation where you've got to get a shot quick. You have to just use what you have available to you."
Developing a photographer's eye and intuition are key parts of this course as much as lighting is. More than just training you how to shoot like a photographer, the in-depth case studies will train you how to think like one, too.
Ultimately, the best way to learn the art and craft of lighting is to get out there and practice. Using the principles, tutorials, techniques, and insider tricks in Lighting 101, the next time you're out in the world (or in a studio) with your camera, you'll have the confidence to shoot like a professional.
