Lighting Setup Tutorials: basic to advanced
Thanks for your help Gibson! I can see the images on your document just fine (usually impossible due to a Flickr block in this country) but for future reference here's a quick way if you ever want to do a PDF: with the thread open, go to File > Print > then select the page numbers required and instead of the default printer location, scroll & select 'Adobe PDF'. Voilla.. Thanks again. Jul 25 09 01:22 pm Link I've missed the pdf's for 15 through to 25. Whereabouts can I find them. Thanks in advance. Jul 26 09 09:34 am Link Lightlab thank you for paying it forward with this info  Jul 26 09 02:52 pm Link Tusk wrote: Hi, how can this be done in safari please?

The ceiling was about 15' with small emergency type lights on it, so I don't think the affected the shot. The model, Michelle Monroe, was stood in front of an open doorway which was dircetly adjacent to a huge window letting in tons of natural light. Also there was a small strobe on very low power with a blue gel on it, pointing to the models left, with a set of barn doors on. This was positioned just inside the doorway at a low level. This was to try and accentuate her body scape/shape/contours.  Jul 27 09 07:14 am Link Yes. This has been very helpful! Thanks to everyone.

Either a grid or speedlight behind and to the left of the model. Actually a rather easy shot.

I have been trying to do this type of shot for a while, but i always seem to end up with a very noisy photo, or with the light spilling out too much.

But i figured i should add it here also since it gives another lighting setup for the people who keep track of this thread.

I have a beauty dish and grid, 20 degree grid and umbrellas, a soft box with grid, soft box strip box , round filter , and strip modifier for it.

AWESOME results with the 6mp cam though. Sep 20 09 01:37 pm Link A new photo shot I did with model Alex. Still trying to master the one light setup. Used one Novatron 240 strobe with the butterfly lighting setup.    Sep 29 09 10:10 am Link Jason Bassett wrote: Hey Jason. Thanks for the feedback. For the moment I am just focusing on lighting with only one light. Haven't even added a reflector or bounce card. After I feel I got the one light & reflectors I'll start adding an additional light. Almost there. Sep 30 09 05:53 pm Link |
