Shooting with Gels using Mains Studio & Off Camera Flash – Chester Photographic Academy Evening
What Will Happen
Learn to shoot with gels using mains studio & off camera flash at this Welshot Photographic Academy Evening in Chester. Gels are coloured, transparent material used to modify lights for photography which are placed over the light source to create stunning, often dramatic, colourful effects for the images you create. You will be shooting in a mains studio environment and on location within the Chester Crowne Plaza, capturing your stunning, experienced, Welshot models in camera while using lighting gels and modifiers.
Our Welshot Chester Photographic Academy Evenings give you a chance to learn, be creative and with the right amount of theory and practice, that will help you to boost your imagination, gain more confidence in a studio environment and make some stunning images for your portfolio at the same time.
Beginner to photography? We can help you.
Whether you are a beginner to photography, a photographer who would like to try a new genre, learn a new technique or skill, or, a more advanced photographer who wants to build their image portfolio, you will be made welcome, and we would love to help you get the best out of your camera.
The Welshot Team will be at hand throughout this Shooting with Gels using Mains Studio & Off Camera Flash – Chester Photographic Academy Evening to assist and help you get the best from your camera, so you can leave at the end of this session with memory cards full of beautiful photographs and great memories having learned a thing or three about studio mains flash photography, lighting techniques and your camera.
