Many photographers feel nervous working in a professional photo studio simply because they don’t have much practice! If you made it this far, we would love for you to join us for this 2-hour lighting workshop to get you through the basics of professional studio lighting. Our mission is to get you ready to walk into any photography studio feeling confident and ready to tackle your next big project.
This workshop will be hosted at HGAB Studios, a professional photo and video studio located in Wynwood/Midtown. This facility is equipped with industry-standard equipment and knowledgeable staff with vast experience in photography and production.
In addition to exploring studio lighting techniques, you will also work hands-on in the studio with a model to implement the techniques you learned during the instructional portion of the class. Students will work directly alongside Giano to receive guidance and feedback on the images they take. Make sure to bring your camera to this class and come ready with any questions you have in regards to studio lighting. We look forward to working alongside you to help you develop your craft!

The lighting workshop was a great experience. A welcoming environment for creativity, learning, and networking. Giano really opens your eyes to see the many different styles and techniques used to manipulate light.
I enjoyed the workshop. It was super informative and taught me how to intentionally use light to generate emotions. And I met a group of talented individuals as well.
I had an amazing experience learning the studio lighting basics. We were able to cover a variety of lighting setups, from setup to breakdown, angles, creative options through lighting, as well as industry tips for freelancers looking to up their game. I would highly suggest anyone from amateurs to professionals to take this class, learn, and connect with other fellow creatives.
