Love shooting at night but tired of dragging your tripod around? This session is about learning a set of techniques to shoot using a single, fast prime lens (e.g. 50mm, 35mm f/1.2, f/1.4, f1.8)

You know that small, lightweight, inexpensive but beautiful lens that sits quietly in your camera bag? Tonight you’ll put it to good use!

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Using a fast aperture to allow hand holding at night
Create bokeh for beautiful shallow depth of field
Getting depth of field in your shot
Tips for getting sharp shots whilst handholding at night

EXPERIENCE

All levels welcome!

EQUIPMENT

Any camera
50mm f1.8 - any lens will work but a fast lens (f1.8-f2.8) is recommended
No tripods needed
We'll be wandering around so be sure to wear appropriate shoes.

TRAVEL

As usual check the TFL website for any issues that may delay your journey
