  • Hey guys!
    I hope everyone is doing well 😊
    Today's video is going to be all about 3 easy portrait lighting setups for small spaces. (Studio lighting setups for beginners.)
    It can be really difficult for beginners when it comes to setting up lights for portraits. So in today's video I decided to share some simple portrait lighting setups , particularly suitable lighting setups for small spaces.
    I originally had a home studio, so I wanted to share some studio lighting for beginners that requires only between 1-2 lights.
    Hope you guys enjoy! :)

    quick tip to viewers about the last clamshell version with such a tight setup (and potentially slightly larger boxes) is to make sure you have pretty strong modeling light on all the way through the session to keep those pupils as small as possible. Otherwise you might end up with lizzard-eyes :-). (obviously not visible in your shots though so all good)

  • @portraitsbydouglas9861

    Solid information. But I guess my problem with studio photography is at least the angle as well as how much flash power. I always feel like my photos don't ever come out naturally looking like yours. Just feels like a photo taken with flash with a paper backdrop.

    If you want to use the one light but have a lower ceiling and you can’t raise the light as high will that affect the shot

      @la.uralox Рік тому +1

      It will depending on how low you have to have it, but if you can’t move the light move the model, have them sit on a lower chair or even on the floor

    1:27 "a small space" that's the size of our entire apartment where 3 people live. I need a lighting setup for a 2feet by 4feet space. That's also my workout area and work from home area by the way.

    It would've been great if you actually showed us how you adjust lights step by step while using the equipment instead of talking directly Infront of the camera. @KayleighJune
    This is a good video especially with the pictures of the setup of the equipment.

      I'll definitely be doing more videos in the future in-depth with lighting setups. Plus part of this was filmed when I was still in lockdown. 🙂

      Not necessarily, but it does depend on where you're holding it. It's important to make sure it's not held too close to the face. 🙂
