Lindsay you are such a good communicator of photography techniques. Thank you for sharing so many ideas to the world so everyone can oncrease their knowledge and non photographers can better appreciate our work.
I have always liked the way Irving Penn's studio fashion images looked like, thank you Lindsay Adler for featuring The Checkerboard Lighting its good to learn terminology!
¡Al ver cómo iluminas parece tan fácil! Pero cuando se domina la tecnica, es fácil. Lo difícil es concebir la idea. Sos maravillosa enseñando, gracias.
This was very interesting and presented very well. Thank you for taking us through this at a pace that was just perfect. The model’s makeup was perfect for this shoot. Also, nice shoes …
This is a beautiful inspiring presentation, well structured and presented. I have one question though, I might have missed it, what were your camera settings?
FANTASTIC! Lindsay- I'm a longtime commercial shooter, degreed in same/66; like yourself- studied/admired the greats:...Avedon, Penn, plus MANY more, But: YOU are up there in the photographic pantheon of Greats. Period. #HugeTALENT ps: I love Annie, but she can't talk about the process/SHOW- Teach, like your can. #Kudos
Nice one but those reflectors were all made for the older style of flashes where the tube was exposed outwards. They still work but with the same effect like they do on the Pro versions of profoto lights. The newer style with the bulb hidden inside do not do the same thing on any modifier. Bummer but true.
I don't meter unless every shot has to be consistently the same and sometimes the blown out look is what I'm going for. I don't always play by the rules. :D
Couldn't you also turn her more and simultaneously rotate the light around her more, creating the same Rembrandt triangle, but casting less light onto the background? Granted, it would still have falloff, so it wouldn't be super sharp. But you wouldn't need a flag if the falloff all happens behind your subject.
Lindsay, I like the time, effort and thought you put into this lighting technique. And how you explain it. Well done👏👏👏👏
Lindsay you are such a good communicator of photography techniques. Thank you for sharing so many ideas to the world so everyone can oncrease their knowledge and non photographers can better appreciate our work.

Thank you Adorama and Lindsay this guide is amazing, I can't wait to try it.
Those pictures are so nice, I'd call it chessboard lighting. Thank you for the tutorial.
Great video and using minimal kit for a stunning look !
You nailed that shot at 7:40 that is a Vogue cover right there.
That's brilliant. Thank you. So simple when you know how.

Great video :-) We did similar at college, using two lights. They referred to it as chiaroscuro :-)
Nice and simple, thank you.

Awesome...
Anyone know where in the UK I could buy a headpiece like this please? Lowish budget.

This lighting technique is also known as chiaroscuro.
👏👏
Shame you did not talk about how you got your meter reading as she looks blown out on the highlights on my screen
I don't meter unless every shot has to be consistently the same and sometimes the blown out look is what I'm going for. I don't always play by the rules. :D
☺️
Am I the only one that noticed the nuckle on the left and got uncomfortable? Might be the years on lighting dept haha
