To be published eight times a year as a digital magazine to be read on the iPad®, Light It is written for both amateur and professional photographers.

“The entire magazine is dedicated to just one topic: lighting. We’re talking about off-camera flash, studio lighting, and how to use all the gear and accessories in studio and on location to help you create your best images,” said Scott Kelby, Light It editor-in-chief. Joining Scott Kelby as co-editor is Matt Kloskowski, a NAPP Photoshop Guy, Photoshop and Lightroom instructor, bestselling author, and weekly co-host with Kelby of The Grid, a podcast all about photography.
“Our goal was to create an iPad magazine that not only looks like a print magazine, but works the same way. It’s clean. Simple. Intuitive. You don’t need to learn how to read it. At the same time, we added the ability to go beyond print, with features like a double-tap to see any photo full size, and the ability to pinch to zoom-in to see a photo’s detail. It works the way you’d think it would…like a magazine. Only better,” said Kelby.
KelbyTraining.com selected Aquafadas Digital Publishing System to produce Light It. Aquafadas’ tools let designers create fully interactive apps and content for iPad and iPhone by using the tools they are familiar with, Adobe® InDesign® and QuarkXPress®, and without requiring programming skills. The company also provides creative software for Flash®, HTML5, photo and video editing, and is a leader in the digital comics market with AveComics, used by French and international publishers to publish comics to tablets and smartphones.
