Explore modern natural light photography techniques for fashion and beauty. Learn to manipulate light and enhance your photography skills with comprehensive lectures and hands-on projects.
This course dives into the art of natural light photography, focusing on fashion and beauty shots. You’ll learn to master various light qualities and practical techniques using basic tools. It’s perfect for every photographer looking to enhance their skills and creativity in using natural light.
Natural light is a popular way for fashion or beauty photography. We explore modern methods of natural light photography
There is something inherently beautiful about natural light. It can be soft and warm, or hard and unforgiving, or even have a sort of melancholy to it. These are the areas we will be looking at in this course.
Fashion and Beauty photography make use of natural light in many ways. A recent viewing of Vogue (October, 2012) reveals many natural light photography shots by up and coming and well established photographers. The techniques are not hard to understand, but still require the finesse and deliberate approach that is required when using artificial lighting.
We will look at natural light from all angles; full sun, modified sun, shade and moody, emotional light.
We will build some inexpensive modifiers for natural light, and also show how to correctly use white reflectors, silver and gold reflectors, scrims, mirrors, and more. These tools are not expensive, but the results they give can be astounding.
The natural light fashion/beauty photography course is divided into 12 lectures, each running approximately 30 minutes. There is a workbook, plans for building a scrim and large reflector, and lots of videos.
Most lectures include a shoot with the gear we are using, a Photoshop tutorial, the PSD file for viewing and a look at how the final images were selected. Looking at the images as they are shot, and then edited, is very powerful as a learning tool.
If you are interested in portraiture, fashion, beauty or glamour, this natural light photography course will open your eyes to the very cool ways you can use natural light to make your images.
The beauty photography course is suited to any level of photographer. I recommend a light meter, although we will also show you ways to use your camera meter as we go. A couple of stands would also be a good addition to your natural light arsenal.
This class also has over two hours of bonus content, with new content being added in May 2013 and June 2013.
At the end of this course, you should be very comfortable in all kinds of natural light situations.
Your fashion and beauty work will see significant improvement.
If you have experience in shooting, you will be able to add some additional tools to your arsenal of light.

Don Giannatti has been a photographer for more than four decades. Starting with a desire to do fine art photography, he quickly made the jump into commercial. Over the decades he has owned studios in Phoenix, New York, Chicago and LA. A wide range of clients kept him shooting everything from studio product to fashion, beauty and travel.With a preference...
very good instructions on how to use reflectors to add to natural light sources. See on site models and how they pose. instructions on post processing photos as well.
As a beginner I found this fairly easy to follow. However I do recommend watching on double speed and also the video quality is very low.
It's very bad I have successfully completed my course but I didn't get any certificate why?
I love Don's candid and natural mentorship as he guides you through the process of taking pictures and editing them in innovative and unusual ways... I would love to clone Briana though... She is just a natural and her soft yet striking beauty adds extra punch to already impactful images.
Im learning with my photography about portrait photography and nature light so it was very helpful and I can't wait to go out and try it.
He is teaching the best way to take best shot without complications
Muy bien explicado, fácil de entender
Great for amateur photographers or someone interested in learning a bit more about photography. For the more experienced photographer, it definitely reinforces some key components about lighting and working with subjects/models.
