The Magic of Light | Lighting in Different Situations

GoldLogo

 

Light seekers know that great lighting can make a parking lot sparkle and bad lighting can make even the most gorgeous setting just plain ugly. I thought I might put together a tutorial on how to photograph in different lighting from the worst dappled lighting you can imagine to the yummiest light possible including ways to modify the light without fancy things or artificial light. In order to show you I used the exact same location – lets compare apples to apples shall we? I’ll explain this short and sweet:

Part 3 Making the Most of the Yummiest Light | Photographing in Gorgeous Golden Hour Light

Part 4 Analysis of the Images and Settings Used

Part 5 Editing Tips & Tricks

How to get it:

I went with a different option this time, switching to a platform that is more user friendly with more options.
