Instructors: Joe Baker and Hector Reyes

Take your photography to the next level with our Advanced Off-Camera Lighting Workshop, designed for photographers ready to move beyond the basics and unlock their full creative potential. This hands-on class dives deep into professional lighting techniques, teaching you how to shape, control, and transform light to create truly unique images.

Joe and Hector will explore the power of gels for adding mood, drama, and color harmony to your portraits. You’ll learn how to work with gobos to introduce texture, patterns, and storytelling elements into your lighting design. And most importantly, we’ll break down how to use multiple off-camera flashes together—balancing key, fill, rim, and background lights to craft dynamic, high-impact photos that stand out in any portfolio.

Throughout the workshop, you’ll work alongside an experienced instructors who will demonstrate setups step by step, and allow you to take your own images and make tweaks to make the shots yours. Whether you’re shooting editorial, fashion, or creative portraiture, these techniques will give you the confidence and tools to push boundaries and shoot with purpose.

This workshop is perfect for photographers who already understand off-camera flash basics and are ready to grow into advanced lighting techniques that spark creativity and elevate their work.

We will also have Cheetahstand products on hand for you to peruse and pick the best modifiers for your photographer.
