Today’s class was amazing since we were asked to bring an item that we are interested in shooting. I brought perfume and some flowers to use as props. I used a white background for my perfume. As for my angle, I shoot at different angles just to see which one looks the best. These three are the final one. After the shoot, I used lightroom & Photoshop to fix my lighting and do a little touch-up.

Today’s class covered product photography. I personally found that the flash helped get a really clear and crisp image. I had a great time during this shoot.

Doing product shots was fun to do. Using highkey lighting is definitely easy to do and makes me realize that a lot of product shots are done in that lighting.  I kept my aperture the same at f32 and 1/200 shutter speed on a tripod. For the lowkey lighting I kept my aperture at f5 and set it the tripod and angled it to my card and even switched to catch the light.

This class we were learning the light painting portraits. With the help of  different lights we are getting different results. I learned a lot on this class not only in terms of using light to be creative but also essential skills in photography, such as control of manual flesh to get double exposure. I learned about how to correctly expose the photo using manual flesh + creative light.   This class helps me to understand the process of exposing with slow shutter speed.

For today’s class we got to take pictures using light sticks, pixelstick and phone lights to create different things. I used ISO 100,  Exposure 15 sec  & F/10 to take these pictures. All the pictures were on the black backdrop.
