Autopsy and Injury Photography
​

This is a 3-day Autopsy and Injury Forensic Photography course which will be of interest to medical examiners, coroners, and those forensic photographers who are tasked with the photographic documentation of autopsies and injuries on victims’ bodies. Emphasis is placed on specialized photographic and lighting techniques that produce meaningful images that are admissible in court.

This forensic course begins with a brief review of basic photography and goes on to cover techniques that can be used to effectively document patterned injuries and bruising. Infrared and ultraviolet photography techniques will be discussed and demonstrated. Lighting techniques covered include a lecture on light theory that features a discussion of luminescence and its documentation with cameras.

Lighting techniques covered in this course include the use of the Alternate Light Source to locate and photograph evidence at the crime scene or on the body of the victim.
