Today I went to the Jessops store in Leicester to take a 'starting with studio/portrait photography' course. This was a christmas present from Amanda...
We left the house at 09:00, arrived at the store for 10:15, and started bang on 10:30. There were two girls (Liz & Lisa from WPS Studio) there to act as our models for the day , and the instructor made a good job of explaining how (and why) everything worked. The morning was mostly lecture, with demo's of different lighting effects from on camera flash units, 1, 2 or ever 3 studio light units and the use of reflectors.
After lunch the classrom was converted into two separate studio sets, and the girls posed happily while we all worked out how to use our cameras!
The results from my exploits can be see here on my photo-albums site, not quite as 'interesting' as their web pages on WPS, but easier to show the wife what you were up to all afternoon!
We finished at about 16:30, and had a nice steady drive back home - arriving just in time for the 2nd half of the Man United FA Cup tie against Portsmouth (United won 2-1 )
All in all - a good day
