Flash Exposure Simplified: The Power of the Gray Card

Christine Chambers, CPP

 LOCATION: 63 Village Street, Millis, MA 02054

Are you new to using off camera flash?  Are you confused by trying to calculate lighting ratios?  Christine will take you through a simplified, non-technical way to incorporate flash and get the exposure correct.  She will take the guessing game out of it and show you a method for being able to get the exposure right regardless of the environment you are working with.  Learn how to use a simple gray card both indoors and outdoors in your portrait sessions.  This program will start with using one light inside.  Then we will take the group outside of the studio to use that one light outdoors.  If time permits, we will do a field trip for more outdoor scenes.

Bio:Christine has operated her photography business since 2016 and provides photography education since 2021. She teaches in both larger seminars and one-on-one specializing in off-camera flash. She is currently a CPP with PPA and serves as on the PPA Council and the PPAM board as VP of Technology. Christine works with flashgear.net, an online small business providing personalized solutions for lighting for photographers. Find out more at www.christinechambersimages.com.
