Using the right equip­ment, select­ing unique per­spec­tives, and prop­erly han­dling expo­sure and color tem­per­a­ture, an ordi­nary build­ing can be trans­formed into a mon­u­men­tal sculp­ture. Key to great archi­tec­tural pho­tog­ra­phy is under­stand­ing image dis­tor­tion, find­ing the opti­mal time and angles to cap­ture a build­ing, and uti­liz­ing the best dig­i­tal tools available.

With recent devel­op­ments in dig­i­tal imaging—cameras, lenses, lights, and post-production soft­ware— pho­tog­ra­phers are now able to sep­a­rately expose for shad­ows, mid­tones, and high­lights, com­bine expo­sures into a sin­gle image, make adjust­ments to a RAW file and print directly from it, cre­ate cus­tom cam­era pro­files, and fine-tune color to a degree that was never before pos­si­ble. This course cov­ers a host of top­ics, from strobes and lenses to set­tings for inte­rior and exte­rior pho­tog­ra­phy, and demys­ti­fies dig­i­tal tech­niques like teth­ered shoot­ing, HDR, out­put sharp­en­ing, mask­ing, and stitching.

“As a per­son who takes many pho­tog­ra­phy sem­i­nars, I would like to highly rec­om­mend Eduardo Angel. I have taken sev­eral of his sem­i­nars in NYC, and each was fan­tas­tic. Eduardo is a pro­fes­sional pho­tog­ra­pher who is an expert in Light­room, Pho­to­shop, Cap­ture One and Color Man­age­ment (X-Rite, Data Color). In addi­tion to being extremely knowl­edge­able, he has a dynamic per­son­al­ity and is a won­der­ful teacher. His sem­i­nars were packed, and all atten­dees came away very happy with the class. Eduardo’s last sem­i­nar was the best I have ever attended, due in good part to his teach­ing style. I strongly rec­om­mend tak­ing his classes.”
