DelawareScene: "From Fear to Flash" @ Delaware Photographic Society

"From Fear to Flash"

Join JC Carey, a formerly-light-phobic photographer turned lighting junkie, for a fast-paced, fun, and fear-free dive into the wonderful world of artificial lighting. JC will strip lighting down to the essentials (and throw in some “a-ha” hacks) so that you leave with not just better photos, but better confidence behind the camera. You’ll learn how to get light off your camera and into your creative toolkit—whether you’re working with a speedlight, a strobe, or a flashlight duct-taped to a ceiling fan.

Topics Covered (with minimal headaches and zero math quizzes):

• The simplest, least-scary way to start adding flash to your photos

• What lens choice has to do with lighting (spoiler: more than you'd think)

• TTL vs Manual (and why both have their place)

• High-Speed Sync & Rear Curtain Sync: What they are and when to use them

• The joy of getting the flash off your camera

• Light modifiers: softboxes, umbrellas, and other magic tricks

• Using gels to add drama, flair, or just fix weird indoor lighting

Whether you’re looking to take better portraits, spark your creativity, or just finally win your war with the flash, this is your gateway to making light your friend.
