An awesome glamour lighting technique to focus your light

Some lighting setups are just awesome

And for me this is one of them.

As the main lightsource I’m using the Westcott Lindsay Adler optical snoot.
The advantage of the optical snoot is that you can focus the light beam and get some real nice very sharp lighting effecting.
I love using it straight on the model or on the background, or like you see here, to create some special effects.

The trick of course is smoke, otherwise you don’t see the beam of light.
But also make sure you place the light slightly in front, otherwise the model has to look straight up.
But I think a video will explain this much better 😀

And some more of the final results

The workshops are normally in Dutch, but if you let us know a few weeks in advance we can switch to English.
But of course also 1:1 workshops are possible, in real life and even online.
