  • Are you ready to rock out some low key beauty portraits in my studio? These are a lot of fun to create and if you follow along in my step-by-step tutorial video you will be able to create stunning portraits for your clients. Even if you are a beginner, you can add this simple lighting technique to your studio lighting set-up.
    For low key portraits, you only need one off camera light source. In addition, you could add a reflector to fill in some of the shadows in the portrait, but beware, because for low key portraits, shadows are our friend.
    In this photography training video, Im using a Profoto B10 and a 20 degree grid from Profoto. In addition, Im using a silver reflector from Profoto to fill the shadows.
    And don't miss the bonus portrait I create at the end of this training video. This is a one light portrait as well.

    Good morning from Brazil Sal, man I love your light, excellent video lesson, but let me ask "again" where can you use a polarizing filter in the studio? I know it's used for reflections, turbo blue sky, but I saw some photographers that they It can also help with the color contrast of looks and remove shine from the models' faces. Is that right? What is the advantage of this filter in the studio, hugs my enlightened friend.

    • @SalCincotta1
      @SalCincotta1  Рік тому +1

      ty my friend. as for filter - i have no idea. i cant think of a single reason i would use a polarizing filter in the studio. i mean it makes sense to cut down on shine, but i dont know why i would opt for that vs having makeup actually fixed. that seems easier that trying to use filters, etc. so i cant personally answer that one for you - sorry brother. :)

    Just curious, when you metered you said ISO 100. But all the exif info that popped up said ISO 50. JMHO, the last shot I would have liked a touch more light as the red fabric looked lost behind her.

    • @SalCincotta1
      @SalCincotta1  Рік тому +2

      yeah i think i changed it as i was working to get 1 more stop of light. as for the lighting... i think you gotta allow for some video compression... i love the softness of the light in the image - i can see soft texture of the red... but im looking at the actual final image.

    I have noticed in this and other videos of yours that you touch your models but you don't ask their permission first. While you may do this, the role-modeling this appropriate behavior in your videos would be beneficial to photographers, especially those new to working with models.

    • @SalCincotta1
      @SalCincotta1  Рік тому +1

      well... do hmua ask permission? what am i asking permission for? did you feel i was inappropriate? its weird when people make it weird. i have a set with 5 females on it. these are people and relationships i have with people... if we are all comfortable thats all that matters. i cant "set the example" of how to not be a weirdo in every video i create. These are people ive been working with for years and know personally. if WE are ok with it - THAT is all that matters. right? :)
