Ring Lite 1
A ring flash is unfortunately an expensive proposition, but so much money we need not spend, as we craft our own ring flash with a dish and a tripod.

Ring Lite 2
In a modification to the previous film we use this time instead of a softbox as the direct light of the ring flash. What causes the changes in the photo that we experience in this setup. Following the motto: simple, but brilliant and an absolute "BURNER".

Bags of coffee beans
A great model and a nice background does not require always a thousand flashes. Quite the contrary, more than any flash itself draws more from the subject. This video is all about the exact balancing of the light situation.

The same in blue
This technique can be manipulated back and modify a little. Immediately we get a completely different picture and acting in this film, the impact of the different combinations.

The reason large softboxes
Why do so many manufacturers actually build such a large soft boxes? To leave only to models before? - Absolutely not. The reason for large soft boxes is quite another. Which? - That we can find right here.

Glamour thanks Dish
Glamour pure with only a Dish! By positioning, we can still set a light technical focus the viewer on a portrait of our model. The article is all about the drop in light intensity over distance.

Abnormal
It is not always sharp! Here we create a corresponding illumination with continuous light, while using the permanent illumination characteristics. Motion blur and sharp contrasts create an interesting interplay.

Wrap behind
A great effect can be achieved again with only one source of light. As always, the photo must occur before the head and we have to use the light and carefully targeted.

Feather-technology
With the Feather methodology can make the laws of nature on its head. The movie is about to use the border region of a light shaper so that more light is thrown behind the model as the model and that with only one source of light.

One site setup
Even in this post again only one light source is in use! Everyone has a dark side and this is specifically for use in this post. We use a continuous light and a reflector with zebra fabric.

Indirectly, high 10
It does not always use real light former. Large, white rooms are great as a giant softbox. We use this in the studio and take pictures with extremely soft light, our light source is this time the studio itself

Crazy sexy cool
Still only one light source and light deep this time! By varying the distance from the light source model, we can systematically influence the shadows. Separated from strong to "glow effect" anything is possible.

The post-
In this chapter you will find extensive possibilities with Photoshop and Lightroom to correct in post. Many examples will give you an impression, but also practical assistance on how to get to your destination.
