North Haven Camera Club is pleased to announce we will again host professional photographer Duck (Charles) Unitas on November 11th. Duck will tackle the issue of balancing light and shadow in photography using artificial (studio) lighting, and will explain both continuous and flash/strobe lighting during this hands-on workshop. Attendees will then get a chance to use the provided lighting equipment to build their own lighting setups based on the information presented. All you need to bring is your camera! Also be sure to bring something to take notes with, as he will cover a lot of information and it will help you to have something to refer to afterwards.
Duck is a certified professional photographer, graphic designer and illustrator operating a small photography studio in Shelton, Connecticut. His work ranges from food, product and brand photography to corporate headshots, logo design and spot illustrations. Primarily specializing in tabletop photography for eCommerce and environmental portraiture, his has a wide range of retail clients. Duck also teaches photography and photo editing through various local camera clubs, meetup groups and his own workshops, both live and online. See more here.

This program will also discuss Light painting, which is using a hand-held light source like a flashlight or LED light in a dark room (or outdoors at night) to illuminate your subject. The camera is set to bulb mode (or Live Time or Live Composite on OM SYSTEM or Olympus cameras) and placed on a tripod using a long exposure to capture the light while you walk around and illuminate the subject with light. There are degrees of light painting from the less desirable “Light Pointing” (standing at the camera with a light source directed at the subject) to more effective “light painting” (moving the light in a brush movement, typically starting from one direction, using a flashlight) to the extreme of “Light Sculpting” (using a flashlight to “Sculpt with light” using multiple layers and post-processing). Come learn how to see light and light paint!
