BONUS FULL DAY HANDS ON WORKSHOP

Color: Directing the Eye and Influencing People

Color is one of the most important elements in photography. As it’s been said, “It’s easier to make color look good, but harder to make it service the story.” In this class, Chris explores color from hue, saturation, and luminosity to harmonies, discordance, why we feel certain ways about color and where that comes from. He demonstrates how color helps tell your story and how to create and use it in a variety of ways. Color strengthens, binds, and elevates imagery - after this class, you’ll be able to harness it more effectively in your own work.

The Psychology of the Portrait

If you think that a portrait is primarily about lighting and apertures, then you are missing out what makes a portrait truly great! Join Chris Knight in a deep dive into the powerful interplay of the psychological and technical elements of portraiture that can help your images be more than skin deep. You’ll learn how to find the best angle, optimal lens choice, top posing tips, the power of composition, wardrobe guidelines, and (of course) lighting. Whether working with streamlined, 'beginner' gear on location or a studio packed with professional gear, this class will help you improve how you think about and execute your portrait work.
