Course Description

An online long exposure photography course giving you a complete guide to this popular form of photography with post-processing training to make your photography stack up against the best.

This is a high-end, professional course that will take you through everything you need to know about this genre of photography. You’ll learn how to use ND filters to master the visual effects they can create, like making water look like glass and clouds streak in the sky. You’ll also learn how to use long exposures to create stunning night photography and how to make light trails.

Once you’ve learnt how to master the visual effects with your camera, we’ll then teach you how to post-process the shots to ensure you get professional results. We’ll use high-end editing techniques like luminosity masking, HDR blending, and removing objects seamlessly from the scene to ensure you turn your shots from good to great.

The course also comes with PDFs to help reinforce the knowledge learnt whilst you’re out in the field. To make your life easier in post-processing you’ll also get Photoshop actions, RAW files and the final edits created in the course so you can follow along and learn with ease.

This online course is aimed at intermediate photographers who want to take their photography skills to the next level and for people who have tried these techniques but haven’t quite grasped how to get great results from them.
