        I created Vanity Fair style lighting in my living
        I created Vanity Fair style lighting in my living room using speedlites! You can too with either speedlites or strobes! CLICK the LINK in my BIO to watch my tutorial video.
I photograph my models and flowing fabric separately and combine them in Photoshop. I used a printed fabric backdrop by @Avezano_backdrops and I’m really happy with the results! Get 20% off any of their backdrops on their website with code NCB20 🙂
A huge thank you to my incredible model @jocelyncphillips17 for rocking this look!
Camera: Canon EOS R
Settings: SS 1/200, f3.2, ISO 200
lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.2
Backdrop: Avezano khaki printed fabric backdrop 10’x15’

        Take gorgeous natural light portraits in your livi
        Take gorgeous natural light portraits in your living room using your windows as giant softboxes. I show you how in my latest video. Click the link in my bio!
Camera: Canon EOS R
Settings: SS 1/200, f3.2, ISO 500
lens: Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8
Lighting: I used several v-flats I made to bounce the light into the front of Daniel. 
I love the ethereal and contemporary feel this lighting scheme gives to the portraits. I’m always trying to come up with simple solutions for pro techniques.
