Lighting on Location: Mastering One-Light Portraits Outdoors

Join Darkroomers and the San Diego Portrait Club for a collaborative, hands-on portrait workshop designed to elevate your lighting skills. This session combines classroom-style instruction with on-location shooting in scenic Balboa Park.

We’ll begin at 9:30 AM on Saturday, September 6, 2025, at the Photographic Arts Building in Balboa Park, where you’ll learn how to use a portable off-camera flash to balance natural light and ambient conditions. Afterward, we’ll head into the park for two hours of guided shooting with a professional model (Anastasia), putting your new skills into practice.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to balance flash and ambient light for natural-looking results

  • Techniques for using a one-light setup effectively on location

  • Lighting placement, modifier use, and exposure control

  • Hands-on experience with a model in real-world outdoor settings
