what shutter speed you use? is it for key light or fill light?
But the background light saves that mistake.
You back/hair light looks like a flashlight beam on her head; no good.
sexy lol
any idea what is the exposure on each light? like whats the difference between the key light and the kicker or the flash or the fill light??? help pleaseeeeee
thank you both verymuch
how to take picture
Your tutorials are bang on target.thank you
Tony, is your fill light a continuous light or is there a speedlight in the softbox? Thx
Nice, simple, very informative tutorial. You guys have a sweet, positive vibe.
Bloody phill with his lights.
That is a great video!
Great as usual !
Fifth light was overkill.
That last picture of Chelsea with the background light makes her look like this was her high school picture! 😂
Love the layering examples of main, fill, … Beginners can really see the benefit of these lights. Thank you, Tony and Chelsea!!!
Wonderful / Beautiful Girl / Great Photography /Just Love It
thank you that was very simple and useful
Helpful as always, thank you Tony and Chelsea.
Awesome explanation and comparison! Thanks!
tony is a fucking pimp
An essential video.
i really like the way tony and chelsea doing tutorials like they are our next door neighbours
Hello Tony. Great tutorial. I am wanting to know what brand and model were you using for hair light and background light. Thanks you very much.
Thank you so much for this! Your videos are so helpful!
love your teaching method…love your channel..
can you described what fstop power used for each of these lights if you don't mind? Looks to be easy setup but controlling those lights to make it looks right is a challenge.
Hi Tony, thanks for explaining everything so well and all the different types of effect lighting…she looks awesome…
came from the book
Joshua Tony is white because is too smart 🙂
I'm new to all this and don't have all the fancy lights. what should I do.
good
Isn't he using a flash with his lights?
Hello Tony, Could you tell me which brand you using of the studio lighting? Thank you.
Great video! What is the main light – is it a beauty dish of some sort? Also, you get a lot done in what looks to be a fairly small space. What would you say are the dimensions of the room in which you are shooting? Thanks again for the video!
