Professional photographer Steven Biver led a workshop for Professional Photography students at Fairfax Academy as part of a series of mentoring workshops. During his most recent visit, he led a hands-on workshop with level 2 students that focused on lighting and editing. Students participated in lecture and in-depth group discussions that evolved into one-on-one advising in reference to a recent portrait photography project. They are exposed to the local, national, and international photography industry, and learn about light science, advertising photography, and professional editing. Biver is a published author whose book Light Science & Magic: an Introduction to Photographic Lighting has been used in college classrooms for the past 20 years.

Lighting Workshop
I'm here in action volunteering at The Fairfax Academy for Communications and the Arts. After my talk on photographic lighting we did some hands-on studio shots. Here I'm demonstrating ways to use a scrim and a single light to produce either a soft or a more specular highlight on a reflective object.
