New KelbyOne class coming soon!

Tutorials can be a few things

I’ve been creating tutorials for a long time now, and to be honest, it never bores me.
Mostly because, besides explaining the theory behind the techniques, I also love to create more creative setups or use gear in ways it wasn’t really designed for.

So when KelbyOne asked me to record a new class, I immediately knew what I wanted to do.
Create a class where I use household materials to create stunning results.
The class is now online on KelbyOne, so make sure you check it out whenever you want to be inspired.

Topics in the KelbyOne Class

The class is all about using household materials, so we dove into our attic and studio closet to see what we could use.
We ended up with scenes using rescue blankets, a torch with gels and cardboard, a room divider, and a lot more.
This is one of the most creative classes I have ever recorded, so I’m 100% sure you are going to love it.

I show you the lighting setups, the whole shoot (including all the images coming in), and of course, I explain all the techniques and ideas behind the shoot.
And to finish it off, you also get a full retouch session for several of the images.

Fun and creativity: storytelling

Photography is so much more than just capturing a beautiful model in front of a great background.
All of history, we have been storytellers, and you will find out that you will get much better results when you think more about storytelling than just capturing the light on your subject.
Storytelling can be done with colors, expression, and, of course, lighting.

In this class, I show you that you don’t need to break the bank to create cool sets or interesting looks in your photos.
So next time you are shooting a model, maybe just use a tungsten lightbulb or a torch?

Have fun 😀

This blog (with Claudia) is also about being creative with colored lights
