Understanding Exposure and Lighting for Underwater Photography

About the event

Lets take a deep dive into underwater photography - Mastering Exposure and Lighting

During this hour online workshop I am going to show you some of my "secrets" to capturing unique images, using light to your advantage and how to work around backscatter. 

While this workshop is open to all it will help that you have a good understanding of exposure and the basic operation of your camera, housing and strobes. 

Our main focus of this workshop will be teaching you to understand exposure in two parts... Camera and strobes. How to combine the two into your photos. 

Understanding strobes and how to control them! Diffusers, angles, position and other considerations. 

Slow Shutter technique - create drama and help deal with backscatter
