Hosted by Bob & Dawn Davis

This week I had a chance to help out Bob & Dawn at their one day workshop just outside of Chicago, IL. If there’s one topic that many of us struggle with I believe it is working with our flash/strobes. Bob, Canon’s Explorer of Light spend the entire day with 10 photographers going into the details of working with light sources that are available to us. It was about working with the basics to create professional studio looking images. I think it’s safe to say that all the attendees, at the end of the day, walked away empowered and challenged to continue to work on their craft. Most of them were extremely pleased with the results that they got and amazed at the kind of beautiful they were able to achieve with their strobes. Bob spent the first half of the day going over the flash presentation and the rest of the afternoon we got to practice different setups of light in various station as Bob went around working with each individuals. We ended the night by doing some night shoot outside then had dinner followed by a gathering at their house. I think some of us stayed until close to midnight! What a blast! We had so much.

I’m pretty sure they will have something like this again in the near future – I highly encourage those of you who need help in this area to attend this workshop. Most of my knowledge on lighting I learned from Bob in the past. I picked up a few new things at this workshop and I’m excited to discover even more things as I continue to work on my craft. Here are some behind the scenes images from that day:
