Textured Toast: Dramatic Side-Lit Photography
https://www.skillshare.com/classes/Textured-Toast-Dramatic-Side-Lit-Photography/1216254096
This class is all about shaping window light to highlight the texture and contrast in your flat lay photos. We’ll be utilizing Raking Light and I’ll show you a few techniques for added drama and punch. Gone are the days of lifeless “blah” flat lays!

By the end of this class you’ll be able to:

• • Utilize inexpensive light modifiers to control the natural light in your home

• • Avoid common compositional hang-ups and crop with intention

• • Develop a plan before shooting day to save you time and trouble if something goes awry

• • Hone your eye for reading light in an image

• • Make better decisions about optimizing your image size for its final destination

This class is for Intermediate-level photographers with a good understanding of Manual mode and how to achieve properly-exposed images. Ideally you’re working with a DSLR or Mirrorless camera, however, the lighting and compositional techniques will apply even if you’re using a smart phone (I use my iPhone in part of the lighting lesson!)
