Trailer The Essential Lighting Techniques

/1 Comment/in , /by

Photography is painting with light, it’s telling your stories with frozen moments in time that never come back. And this is where you should concentrate on.

If you master your lighting you can completely focus on the story in front of you.

In this video, I guide you through the essential lighting techniques every photographer should know and master.

I will show you the most used light sources like the beauty dish, umbrella, reflector, strip light, a small softbox and more, but also how for example does a grid change the light. We also discuss a really handy technique for total light control by feathering the light

But without the proper understanding of shadows, light fall off, how to meter a scene etc. the video wouldn’t be complete, so we also included these topics. And what about creating the perfect white or black backdrop, or making sure that there is still detail in the blacks and whites within seconds? Also got that covered.

And I also throw in my favourite plugins and how to use them.
And that’s not all….this video is jam-packed with tips and techniques covering A-Z from the essential lighting techniques you really need to know for a successful photo shoot.

This is THE essential lighting techniques video…..you can’t afford to miss.
