  • In this episode, Mark Wallace creates portraits that are beautiful and soft. By using a Canon 85mm f/1.2 lens, Mark is able to create a shallow depth of field. Mark lights his model with Nanlite Forza LED lights. He uses a Nanlite Forza 300 as the key light and two Nanlite Forza 60B fixtures to highlight the model's cheekbones.

    Just a note: The light modifiers are actually *parabolic* softboxes, not octoboxes. That's a big difference when it comes to light shaping. A para will focus the light and give you more specular focused soft light as opposed to the simply diffused light of an octobox. Sounds like I should make a video about this one! Thanks to those who caught this and brought it to my attention.

    Awesome video Mark. I love Clam Shell Lighting. It's my favorite lighting setup. I love how you did Clam Shell Lighting using constant lights. You did a excellent job showing how to do it in this video.

    Mark have you used the nanlites in wedding events?

    Nice although that banding noticable on the background isn't overly appealing. Woulld have been nice to try to remove this by perhaps exposed the background slightly ... or was this perhaps an issue with your Camera/file size?
    Another question I have relates to mixing the Nanlite Forza lights with flash. Are any of them powerful enough to do this, perhaps in combination with a gobo or cookie?
