Today we are proud to host a super exciting giveaway with Sarah, a dear friend and Elsie's wedding photographer. She has created a super inspiring and informative e-course, The Study of Light. It covers everything from lighting outdoors to lighting indoors - even at night. The course is split up into eight sessions, although it's set up so that you can go at your own speed. You won't need an expensive flash or lighting set-up - in fact, you'll learn how to use what you already have, as well as how to build your own indoor home studio (lights and all) for less than $50. Each week is interactive, with homework, you can ask questions and even see what other students are up to.
The Study of Light is ideal for anyone wanting to further their photography quality. Whether you have a blog, a shop, a hobby, or a career, your photographs are your first impression - especially online! For more information and a total course overview, click here.
One lucky reader is going to win the course! To enter simply check out the course description and leave us a comment stating which session you are most excited about. One entry per reader, please. Giveaway will be open until July 24th. Winner announced in this article shortly after. Good luck!
Congrats Hibben, you are the winner! Contact us to claim your prize: emma AT redvelvetart DOT com

The session I am most excited about would have to be Week Seven, where you learn about indoor lighting. I always get the lighting wrong whenever I photograph indoors!! Almost as if I am cursed...Thanks for the amazing opportunity!

I love week four - intro to outdoor lighting!

I think Week Seven- Indoor lighting sounds like something I desperately need!

Week 6! I am constantly trying to take photos of my work and they never look cohesive because of all the different indoor lighting, and the white balance is always off. Because of this I spend hours editing and I am still usually unhappy with the final product :(

I think all weeks are super interesting and can't wait for my summer holidays to experience them all! If I have to choose one, I will go for week 6 though!
Posted by: Alessia | July 17, 2012 at 08:48 AM
week 7 definitely sounds the most exciting to me! although the whole course seems amazing. if I don't win, I will certainly be purchasing it myself!

Week 7 sounds most interesting to me. I need to learn how to take better indoor photos, especially at night!

I think if I have to choose, I choose week 7. It will be the most beneficial for me! I would enjoy them all, of course!

The timing could not be more perfect! My birthday is coming up in August (the 9th!) and I'm asking for a photography course as a present so I can get a better grasp on my DSLR.
I'd love to take this course and session 6 would be particularly helpful as the window situation in my apartment is sadly lacking.
Thanks!

I would love to learn how to make my own setup for that cheap!
