We posted the images from our last lighting workshop on our facebook page a little while ago but have yet to post them here on our blog! We thought now would be the perfect time to do so since we have two new dates to announce: August 19 & September 23.

Just a few simple steps to sign up! For August 19 click here: http://www.rawphotodesign.com/august19 and for September 23 click here: http://www.rawphotodesign.com/september23
You’ll need to create an account first and then you’ll be able to place your order. Feel free to email Amber with any questions: rawphotodesign@gmail.com

Believe it or not we already have two people registered for August 19 and we’ll only be taking 3 more. Five spots are open for September 23rd and believe it or not but that’s how large the class gets…..only 5 people! We ensure limited class sizes so everyone gets hands-on experience throughout the entire day.

August 19 will focus heavily on off-camera flash in relation to weddings. So if you’re curious as to how we apply our lighting techniques to the craziness of a wedding day schedule than definitely do NOT miss this class. We’ll be featuring lots of behind the scene snapshots of actual weddings and discuss our reasoning behind each and every technique and set-up.

Here’s some images from our last workshop!

Definitely my fave of the whole day! (Yes, that’s Amber….our poor model got sick right in the beginning of the shooting and Amber jumped in to save the day!)

Here is a great example of what flash can do and the options that open up. Here is one pose in natural light without any flash used.

Here is practically the same pose, same exact time of day, and same ambient light. There is nothing wrong with the natural light photo, understanding how to use flash just gives you more options on how to take your images to the next level.

Love this shot I grabbed of Amber still teaching while modeling at the same time!!

Register…quick! Go to www.rawphotodesign.com/makemagichappen, create an account and reserve your seat.

Important! You do not need to buy any new equipment to attend this workshop! We have managed in the past by sharing our extra Pocket Wizards (if you do not currently own them)…we bring the LIGHT! Questions? Bring it on! We can’t wait.

So….our model, Anna, killed it. Blush Couture killed it. Our attendees killed it and the locations were as good as it gets. LOVE when we get a workshop crew as enthusiastic, pumped and memorable as this one…cannot wait to check out some of their work: Nicole Taylor, Danielle Fuller, Steve DePino, Joanne Vandal, and Angela Greenlaw. You guys rock!!!

This was just a light test with Anna but I couldn’t resist posting it….seriously, can you get any cuter??

We had such an amazing time shooting at the Danbury Rail Museum and can not thank them enough for being so open and patient with us! We started inside an old, refurbished, mail car. The colors were amazing!

This pose was all my home-girl Nicole’s idea, I just grabbed one from a different angle. You rock girl!!

After Anna was finally getting comfortable in the mail car we decided it was the perfect time to have her absolutely freezing Seriously, we can’t thank her enough for braving the cold weather!!!

I definitely can’t take the credit for this pose, this was all the work of the-always-amazing-Danielle Fuller of Beyond the Lens Photography. Awesome work!!!!

“My LCD is cooler than your LCD…”

This is probably my favorite from the whole day. Such a fierce pose!!! Like we said, Anna KILLED IT!!

I was obviously telling Danielle how amazing she is…

We had about 8 minutes to each grab a shot of Anna in front of the locomotive – success!!

Thanks again to everyone that came out to the workshop, we had an absolute blast!!
