  • If you've gotten good at one-light portraits, it's time to introduce a second light in this two-light portrait setup. My favorite way to use it: Cross Lighting.

    Yours are among the best lighting tutorials I've ever watched. I love the illustrations showing the setup from above, it's incredibly helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    Great tutorial in 3 minutes and straight to the point. Nice supporting illustrations. Thank you!

    Your tutorials are always brilliant. It’s coming up to the time to do the staff headshots for the charity I’m an advisor for, I hate shooting wingless bipeds and I’m going to rewatch all your tutorials again. I have managed to transfer the basic principles to still life and food, and the rules of light are the rules of light, but it’s very much a confidence thing when I have people in the studio (which happens to be a room at said charity so it’s very cheap rent doing this every so often). Great video as always Ed, really enjoyed it.

      I'm glad that any of this helps in any way. Thanks, Mark. And once you get your setup in place (and test it), it can be as simple as point-and-shoot. The rest (posing tweaks, etc.) is just icing on the cake.

    Found your vid just in time. I was scared that I didn’t have enough lights for a scheduled session. Then I found your crosslighting video! What a relief!

      Cross lighting is definitely one of my favorite techniques!

    Thanks but how do I get rid of shadow ? Or should I just not use white for the backdrop to shoot a model

    Is the second light at the same height as the key light?

    Guess I have something new to practice this weekend. Cross lighting. I love the look, never tried to pull it off. I need to rummage through my stuff and see if I have two umbrellas. If not, a soft box and an umbrella would work well together wouldn't they?

    • @edverosky
      @edverosky  6 лет назад +1

      Oh definitely. I’ve done it with a couple of household lamps with good results.

  • @RickMentore
    @RickMentore 6 лет назад +1

    Quality advise as usual! One slightly off topic question, do you use shoot through umbrellas or soft box for outdoors group shots. Hey Ed, I just realized I had bought your book “100% Reliable Flash Photo“ some two years now, I will now study it. Thanks.

    • @edverosky
      @edverosky  6 лет назад +2

      Every time I've tried to use umbrellas outdoors... EVERY TIME... a slight breeze threw them over. Unless someone held them for me. So, outdoors, I use whatever the wind lets me use. Usually, no flash. Otherwise, bare flash.

    • @RickMentore
      @RickMentore 6 лет назад +1

      Ed Verosky Sincearly appreciate your prompt response. I’ll just use a single off-cameras flash on a stand. Again, thanks.

    No real comment on the video other than to say it's the same great stuff that got me to subscribe. That said, has anyone mentioned that the photo of you on your channel header makes you look like Charlie Sheen? ; )

    • @edverosky
      @edverosky  6 лет назад

      Thanks! And LOL! on the Charlie Sheen reference! So, nobody's actually said that to me, but I used to get "John Stamos" when I was younger and had the late 80s semi-mullet. :)
