Synopsis:
Light is all around us. Good job given that we're photographers as it's our most essential resource and we certainly can't do much without it! In this session John will do away with fancy gadgets, flashes, video lights, studio heads and rely on light sources he finds around the venue to create his images. This workshop is straight out of the A Team Book of Photography in that John will use anything at all he can find to add dimension to the images. His only tools will be a reflector and DSLR in this session that will strip your technique back to basics and increase your skill level and understanding many times over.

Fab. Really good and would fully recommend to anyone.

Very good gave me some real gems, would attend a seminar with John again, if was in this area again.

Loved John's relaxed and informal style. He was very approachable.

I have learnt lots of new technics. This workshop was really useful and worth of my money.

He was so amazing and also funny. His teaching skill was also superb. No doubt why he is top class of the game and the images we've got were so stunning. 100 out of ten.
