As photographers, we have the ability tocapture the world through our lens, sowe’re tasked with the social and professional responsibility to properly represent people of color.

As early as I could remember in my career,I wanted to make sure that people who looked like me were going to be properly represented. I remember a lot of my friends complaining that there weren’t any photographers on our college campus that were able to capture the way they looked. Despite having competent work, they struggled with photographing and editing people of darker complexion, for example changing their skin tones or in a lot of the cases, using presets that don’t consider the nuances in different complexions.
In this class, we’ll coverhow to properly light, shoot, and edit a range of different skin tones and complexions.
You’ll learn how to:
Determine theundertonesof your subjects’ complexions,Properlylight your subjectsin both indoor and outdoor settings,Select thebest settings for shootingwhether you’re using a DSLR or an iPhone,Color correct & color gradeyour images in Adobe Lightroom & Photoshop.
This class is suitable forbeginners, but isalso recommended for all levels. I believe that this is information that anyone can benefit from regardless of where they are in their photography journey. I even created aclass guidebookthat you can reference throughout the class, and use as a tool in any project moving forward.
