THE WORKSHOP EXPERIENCE

4-HOUR WORKSHOP OUTLINE

1:00–1:15

Welcome + UV Fundamentals -We'll start by understanding UV photography before picking up our cameras.

1:15–1:30

Camera Setup, Exposure + Focusing

We'll cover practical starting settings, RAW capture, exposure, white balance, focusing in darkness and how to avoid losing detail in extremely bright fluorescent colors.

Live UV Lighting Build

Instead of arriving to a finished lighting setup and simply photographing it, you'll watch the UV lighting being built.

1:45–2:30
