Flash photography is a dynamic and captivating technique that revolves around using external flash units, known as speedlites, to enhance the lighting of your photographs. These compact yet powerful tools open up a world of creative possibilities, allowing you to control light in ways natural lighting alone cannot achieve.

  1. Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of attending the Off-Camera Flash workshop at Sydney Photographic Workshops. The course exceeded my expectations! The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, breaking down complex concepts into easy-to-understand explanations. We had the opportunity to practice with a model, which was invaluable. I’m so excited to continue my photography journey and explore the possibilities of off-camera flash. Highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to elevate their photography skills!
    the best! 📸

  2. Daniel and Wendy consistently deliver outstanding photographic workshops, and their newly formatted Speedlite Essentials workshop is no exception. This revised course adeptly covers the fundamental principles of speedlight photography, making it an excellent preparatory resource for their upcoming 2025 intermediate Speedlite workshop.

    Designed with clarity and practicality in mind, this course is particularly beneficial for beginners looking to grasp the intricacies of flash photography. To maximize the learning experience, I strongly recommend bringing your own TTL-enabled flash. This allows you to observe real-time results directly on your own camera, reinforcing the concepts covered in the course.

    An invaluable educational opportunity for anyone eager to master speedlights, this workshop sets a solid foundation for future photographic endeavours.

  3. Speedlite photography workshop, my third workshop with SPW.
    The bombardment of valuable knowledge and tips on the topic of flash photography which i received from Daniel will immensely guide me along this road of photography I have chosen to embark upon.
    TO NOTE : I had no previous experience with flash photography at all!
    This workshop I guess is for everyone and anyone who is serious and sincere in photography!
    And it would be a miss if I don’t mention the hospitality and ease that Wendy provided!
    Chocolates and all.
    Thank you Wendy!

  4. This is my 2nd workshop with SPW, of all the many workshops I’ve attended from other providers – I have learnt the most right here at SPW. Really enjoyable as well as so much learning! thank you SPW, I’ll be back for more!

  5. Thanks for the great Speedlite workshop on Saturday. Lots of information presented in an understandable way with practical demonstrations. The two shoots with the models were great fun and I’m really happy with the images I was able to capture on the day.
