12 years 2 months ago - 12 years 2 months ago #204164 by PhotographyTalk
For months we've been sharing short "how to" video tips from Jay P. Morgan with "The Slanted Lens". Being great at photography takes a lot of hard work and dedication. Photography enthusiast like yourself are looking to emulate the success of some of these master photographers. Jay P. Morgan is one of these masters who has a proven training method that shows you how to step by step duplicate his photography techniques.

Earlier this week we attended the WPPI trade show in Vegas. In the Hensel Lighting booth was Jay P. conducting a live photo shoot and training. They also were releasing a new training DVD on "Mastering Studio Strobe Lighting" which was aimed at photographers just getting started to advanced photographers. I'll be honest with you, this week has been a LONG week between the trade show and traveling. I wasn't planning on watching this DVD till this weekend. However last night around 11PM I decided I'd watch 30 minutes of this DVD. It was so good that I watched the entire 1 hour 24 minutes! If you would like to grow your understanding of lighting and how to use lighting equipment, this DVD is one of those investments to make.
