A Quick Beginners Guide to Photographing Full Body Portraits using ONE Light (Speedlight)

In this video I will demonstrate how to shoot a full body portrait using one light in a small space. I will be sharing photography tips and techniques as well as a live view of the actual shoot. As with all my lighting tutorial videos, I will be giving you a behind the scenes and live view (SOOC) look of the entire shoot.

Just something about me…
Since prior to my entry into the wedding industry, I have been considered to be one of the most reputable lighting specialists in the Philippines, conducting workshops nationwide and have been featured in various photography magazines. I was also a multi-awarded portrait and advertising photographer.
My expertise is in manipulating ambient and artificial light to create clean and classic photographs which naturally led me to the genre of portrait and wedding photography. Since then, I have shot numerous weddings locally and overseas exhibiting my signature style.

@@JiggieAlejandrino Thanks for making this video. It was REALLY helpful and clear!
Just out of curiosity, do you typically keep your camera at mid-level to your subject when you're doing full body portraits?
Thanks again!

You are shooting in manual mode but in some video you talked about using Aperture priority almost 90% of your shooting.Would you please explain when you go for manual ?

[@JiggieAlejandrino]

When I have full control of the lights and I know it won’t change

[@gezimgeci4392]

Hi Jiggie, how do you maintain the 5.6 aperture while you change the flash power?!
