Video: Telling Stories In Your Portraits – Environmental Lighting Tips with Tony Gale

Light plays a huge role in creating the mood in your images, and with your subject in the right light, you can nail the shot. But with environmental portraiture outside the studio, lighting situations can vary, making it difficult to get the right shot.  In this 1 hour special co-sponsored by Manfrotto, award-winning NYC based photographer Tony Gale delivers lighting techniques and tips you can take with you to your next shoot. Tony, a Sony Associate Artisan of Imagery and Manfrotto Ambassador, walks you through some of the more difficult lighting scenarios he’s dealt with, showing diagrams of his light set ups and what gear to use to get the right look.

From this webinar you’ll walk away with advice about how to enhance the mood in your images by using strobes, softboxes, and Tony’s favorite: the Elinchrom Ranger Quadra. He touches on metering, why using a color checker is an important tool for a better shot, and how to scout for the best locations for telling your subject’s story.
