I’ve been using the Rogue flashbender for many years and without any doubt it’s one of the most flexible light shapers.
You can use it as a snoot, bounce card, softbox and even a striplight with grid.
Quick portraits on location is always a challenge, you have to think fast, find a location, setup your lighting and often only have a few minutes with your client. Today we are going to take a look at how we setup a location session and what I use.
On the desktop I’ve been using products from Skylum since they were called MacPhun and I always loved their approach to make something standalone but also fully incorporate it into the Adobe eco system. Now a days you probably know them best for Luminar.
And man am I excited, because Luminar has now been released on the iPad.
I still have to test everything and see how it will integrate into my workflow with Lightroom but for “looks” in my images I can’t wait to start building new presets.
Now this might seem logical, but often it’s forgotten that when you really blend background and model together ON SET you get a much more “organic” and “real” end result, not just because the shadow and light play on the backdrop, but also because both model and photographer are “inspired” by the results coming in.
