What will I learn on the Documentary Photography Course?
Over the course we’ll cover the following topics:
What is Documentary Photography? Introduction
Laws/rules/ethics – We will discuss some of the legal and moral considerations that you will need to make when working as a documentary photographer.
Lenses – Which lenses to use for specific events, and how to create different looks for the same scene by using different lenses.
Light – How to use the light available to you to create the best image possible. This will include capturing photographs in different locations and lighting, using off-camera flashguns (speedlites), and outdoor natural light.
Interacting with a subject – We will talk about how to approach your subjects, how to position them, how to light your subjects, and how to capture their stories.
Image review – We will end the course by reviewing, selecting the best final images. We will also explore different techniques on how to use a series of images to tell a visual story.
