Get your white balance correct easy and fast

When working with photos or videos the correct white balance is essential to get natural looking images/video.
But it’s also important when you use presets to tint your images, if your base is not correct every time your presets will look different every time.

When shooting raw you can correct a lot yourself, but with video it’s often not that easy because you’re shooting on a compressed format. Today in the video a quick tip on how to get proper white balance on you video camera, or photo camera in a few seconds with the brand new ExpoDisc V3.

 

that awesome Rembrandt lighting

In todays blog post a video about one of the most beautiful lighting setups, the Rembrandt setup.

Fiberglass umbrella kit

The umbrella is a vital piece of kit for every photographer that wants to be able to use a large/soft lightsource on location or in the studio without breaking the bank. And although umbrellas are widely used they are also often very fragile. With the Rogue Fiberglass umbrellas they tackled that problem by using fiberglass. And making the umbrellas very sturdy. But also super light. In the kit you will find a white umbrella and a black umbrella with diffuser panel.

I mostly use the white umbrella for white backgrounds.Because it will reflect the light and pass the light making it possible to use one light shaper as background light and accent on our model. Very cool.

The black umbrella with diffuser is my favourite as fill in light or a very nice soft contrast portrait light.
The umbrellas are delivered with a nice carrying bag.

The magnetic snoot


As you know I love light shapers that can be used in different ways, and the snoot does exactly that.
You can use it in 4 different settings, but when combining them with rectacular strobes you can also use them without the diffusion panel and create stunning vertical lighting patterns on your subject to really let him/her jump out.

Some fun images with Nadine and crazy styling

Today just some images I shot during a workshop with Gabe and Nadine.
With sets like this it’s always fun to experiment with different angles and expressions.
So walk around your model and sit down, or stand on a ladder, make it fun and creative.
And don’t be afraid to use your wide angle for some nice leading lines.

Oh… and even during lunch keep shooting 😀
