This beginner-to-intermediate lighting class breaks down the essentials in a way that actually makes sense—no overwhelming theory, just practical application you can use immediately.

What This Workshop Is About

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to: 

  • Use on-camera flash correctly for clean, balanced results
  • Understand off-camera flash without the confusion or intimidation
  • Blend flash with natural (ambient) light for a realistic, polished look
  • Set up simple studio lighting techniques that can be used on location
  • Create consistent results in challenging lighting environments

Hands-On Learning Experience

This is not a lecture-style class. You’ll be actively shooting, adjusting, and learning in real time.

  • Small group setting (max 8 students) ensures personal attention
  • Plenty of hands-on shooting time with guided instruction
  • Real-world scenarios designed for practical application
  • Direct feedback to help you improve quickly and confidently

Our goal is simple: when you leave, you’ll understand why your lighting works—not just hope that it does.

Who This Workshop Is For

This workshop is perfect for:

  • Photographers frustrated with inconsistent lighting results
  • Beginners ready to move beyond auto settings
  • Real estate and architectural photographers wanting cleaner interiors
  • Portrait and lifestyle photographers looking for natural-looking flash techniques
  • Anyone ready to take control of their camera and lighting setup

Rebecca Moran Rodeo & Western Lifestyle Workshop

“This workshop, run by Joe and Lisa Duty, is one of the best I have ever attended. They are very knowledgeable and helpful for every participant’s photographic needs. The workshop was structured to cover a variety of subjects and photographic treatments to please everyone. They made everyone feel they were a valued member of the group, no matter what level of photographic expertise each person brought to the workshop. That level of inclusion in the group process, and support is rare in my experience, I would have no hesitation in recommending Joe and Lisa Duty to anyone considering any of their workshops or tuition, and hope I shall have the privilege of working under their guidance again.”
