!!!!!SOLD OUTCHRIS DUNCAN The ART AND SCIENCE OF LIGHT SOLD OUT!!!!
!!!!!!!We are sorry there are no more seats!!!!!The Art and Science of Light

Cris Duncan

 Lighting is by far the most important ingredient  in creating an image, it is the key to photography. Light defines the subject. Light will show or remove texture. It has the power to direct a viewer, evoke an emotion and tell a story. Light is the basis for life and the heart of a photograph. Knowing how to and use light to set the tone for your image is an art, an art that takes years to master and only moments to appreciate.


On the other hand, light is also a science. We are ruled by physics. The two must be used together. Photography is about the     

“Art and Science of Lighting”. 

In this program, the fundamentals of light, any light, will be demonstrated and explained  in both studio and location settings.


Cris will your guide sharing practical, pertinent and positive ideas to propel your business forward. You will learn what light will do in any given situation. Strobe, ambient, daylight, portable light, off-camera flash and more. It does not matter the source of the light as long as you understand the physics of the light and its properties--You will know and understand that in this presentation. LIVE! Not geared to one particular discipline, but rather for a working pro who has to shoot a variety of subjects. We will discuss lighting for portrait, wedding, product, architecture and more. 


The best part of photography, at least in my opinion is being able to manipulate reality while still keeping it real. An artist can create any fantasy he or she desires with the brush, but photographers must do that with light and shadow alone. The challenge, creativity and technical science of our craft is what keeps me passionate for the next.  

It does not matter what you shoot or your market level. This program is designed to give the tools you need along with the confidence to apply them to your everyday life. Whether you are needing to rekindle the love you have for photography, learn a few new skills or just have fun doing what you love, than this is the seminar you do not want to miss.
