Often when I mention sets people think about big budget solutions, but the opposite can be true, and mostly is in my work.
For me it’s almost a sport to create cool looking sets without breaking the bank.
So we also look for cool stuff on fleamarkets, attics etc. you would be surprised what kind of “junk” you can buy for next to nothing that work great in a photoshoot.
We all know the term “3D looking”
And maybe you also struggle with getting your images look more “3D”
In most cases it’s “just” a matter of changing your light to the sides of your subject.
The problem is often that the other side of the face becomes really dark, and often also the background which creates a really bad looking images (unless you love that look).
I’ve been using the Rogue flashbender for over 10 years now.
When I got the “first” edition I started using it not as a bounce card, but to get some cool effects on the background, and due to the design of the flashbender you could also light your model from the back, an amazing tool at that moment which gave me loads of creative options.
And this time we had a very special prop.
A Harley Davidson.
In two completely different setups I show you how to light the set and pose the model, but also how to light in zones and understanding feathering and light placement for reflections and covering up light sources.
