WPPI 2010 – flash on the run

August 18, 2009 Neil vN 4 Comments

I was thrilled to bits when I heard that my proposal for a presentation at WPPI 2010 in Las Vegas, had been accepted.  And here it is now officially announced in the latest issue WPPI’s Rangefinder magazine.  Oh yes, a slight typo on the name as is usual.  But nothing as strange as the ‘Van Elk Freek’  I was once listed as by a car rental company I had booked a car with over the phone.  But I digress … it really is a huge honor to be able to be able to do a presentation at WPPI, amongst some of the biggest names in the photography world.

My presentation there will be as a Masterclass, limited to only 35 people who can attend. 
The gist of the material will sound familiar to the regular visitors to this blog …

Flash On The Run

Program Description:
A wedding day can be a rushed, fast moving event with some of the worst lighting conditions. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have great light that approaches studio-quality lighting from just an on-camera speedlight.

Neil will explain the techniques to create beautiful images while working fast, yet still getting exceptional results from equipment you already have – your on-camera speedlight.
.

If you’re attending WPPI next year, it would be great to meet you there … so come say hello.

    Good stuff, Neil. Those in attendance will learn a lot. I finally got brave and tried some of your bounce flash techniques at my last wedding and I was thrilled at the results. I have a few photos that you would be hard pressed to tell weren’t lit with a softbox. Very cool. Now I just need practice – lots more practice.

    Oh my! How I wish I could be there! I’m just starting out and could really use this workshop, but for now I’ll buy your book. Hope to attend one of your workshops one day, Neil! It’s on my “wish list” :-)

    John, the best way to keep track of WPPI events, would be via their website (and their Facebook page and Twitter feed).
