Lisa Langell will give an amazing BPS webinar on September 28 at 7:30 PM titled “How to Photograph Nature in High Key Style”. We are very fortunate to have Lisa speak to BPS through a special program sponsored by the Photographic Society of America. Thank you to Larry Stamm for forwarding this opportunity.
High key photography is a powerful, evocative and often ethereal type of photography. It involves creating images where there is a dominance of white or bright tones. It is a type of photography that goes against most “traditional” styles and “rules” of nature photography. It requires the right circumstances – the right light, subject, and setting – in order for the magic of High Key photography to work. This class will introduce participants to the genre of High Key photography, which can be one of the most artistic forms of nature photography that can be done in-camera and/or a combination of in-camera and post processing. You will learn: what lighting conditions are best (and worst) for high-key photography; the settings that are generally recommended for creating high-key work; what foregrounds and backgrounds work best for high key photography; composition tips for this style of photography; post processing tips to create the final look.
This webinar is designed to be fun, educational and interactive. You will be able to chat with Lisa throughout the webinar! This isn’t your boring, old “sit and get” webinar — this is engaging, fun and designed to meet YOUR needs!
Whether it was previously working as a master floral designer, a licensed psychologist, university faculty, an international consultant in K-12 education, the Chief Business Development Officer of an education technology company, a researcher, a writer, or an artist – Lisa enjoyed meeting each challenge. In 2015, she successfully transitioned to photography full-time and left the corporate and consulting world behind. Lisa is an award-winning professional photographer whose work has appeared in numerous prestigious publications, including the cover of Outdoor Photographer magazine for its first digital edition in June 2020 on this exact topic, plus numerous images in Arizona Highways, Ranger Rick, art galleries and more. She currently sits on the Board of Directors for the North American Nature Photography Association. She is also a proud ambassador for Tamron, FotoPro, and H&Y filters.
