Lighting can make or break a photo — and understanding how to control it is essential for any photographer. In this hands-on class, Chase will walk you through the core principles of lighting using popular Godox flashes and modifiers, helping you build a strong foundation for studio and on-location work.


What You’ll Learn:


The Three Pillars of Light:



  • Quality – Learn how different flashes affect color temperature, consistency, and output speed.
  • Quantity – Understand how much light you need and how to control it.
  • Direction – Explore light placement and setup to achieve various moods and looks.

Technical Setup:



  • How to connect and sync multiple flashes
  • Using channels and remotes for external triggering
  • Troubleshooting common flash issues

Modifiers & Tools:



  • Explore reflectors, softboxes, and other modifiers
  • Learn how to adapt lighting setups for different scenarios and environments

This class is ideal for photographers looking to elevate their lighting skills, whether you’re shooting portraits, products, or creative concepts. You’ll get hands-on experience with Godox gear and leave with practical knowledge you can apply immediately.
