1/14/2021 ISO 1200 Magazine 0 Comments

Lindsay Adler creates both a high key and low key beauty image using 2 strobes and the exact same modifiers. The only differences? In one shot she used a reflector, and in the other, she added grids while changing the position of the main light. In truth, it’s really pretty minimal changes with really dramatic results.

Controlling the amount of light and shadows in your images is extremely important to controlling the mood in a shot… plus honestly, it's a fundamental element to knowing your way around the studio.
