Money Making Lighting Setups: Photographing Men | Inside Fashion and Beauty Photography w/ Lindsay

Күн бұрын

If you are only photographing female subjects then you are missing out on a big part of the photographic market! While I specialize in beauty photography and most often photograph women, much of my commercial work involves male subjects. I’ve photographed professional athletes, executive portraits, and fashion lookbooks- all with male subjects!
In this video, I show you the 3 lighting setups that help me make money when photographing men; headshots, commercial fashion, and athlete portraits.
Let’s take a look.
Headshots (1-3 lights):
Main Light: 3ft octabox
Rim Light: 1x4ft strip softbox
Background light: 10 or 20-degree grid
Commercial Fashion/Lookbook (1-2 lights):
Main light: Large umbrella with diffusion
Fill: White V-Flat
Athlete Portraits (3 lights):
Main Light: White Beauty Dish (with and without grid)
Rim lights: 2 1x4ft strip softboxes
Remember, for any of these setups you can swap out modifiers if you wish to change the quality of light. For example, for the men’s headshot, you could use a beauty dish as the main light if you wanted a bit more contrast and sculpting. Your background choice will also mark a big difference to the final result. A brown/beige background (Savage Universal Beige or Pecan) is a great choice for bringing out skin tones and creating a welcoming result.

Excellent. As ever, the "trick" is knowing what look you're after and why. The lighting and other tech aspects fall into line from there. For whatever reason it remains unsaid but I imagine a basic shot list is part of any "recipe."

Appreciate you and your videos. Does it matter if the rim light touches the nose during portraits and headshots? It doesn't bother me personally but ive heard people say otherwise.

Hi Lindsay, a question: I use the RF 24-105 F4L as my main studio lens as well (RF 50mm 1.2 and RF 135mm 1.8 for outside the studio setting). What would you say is the widest you are comfortable with for shooting a full body shot, without having too much distortion in the body? I have a lot of space to back up at the moment, so I can even shoot full body at 135mm, but my near-future home studio will be a lot smaller...

@lindsayadlerphoto Жыл бұрын

It is hard to say, but I think I am usually around 50-63mm but I definitely have some purposefully dramatic shots much wider. Check the 15-35mm wide angle video I did last year. Id say probably usually around 35mm as widest

@kathleendylan Жыл бұрын

Thanks so much for your education! I have white and black seamless and want to add gray and a skin tone. Which would you recommend? I've heard you speak of Fashion Gray. And for the skin tone, which of Mocha, Pecan, Beige, Egg Nog? Appreciate your input!

@lindsayadlerphoto Жыл бұрын

Fashion Gray is my go-to and most versatile. I also use Thunder Gray often as well. For skin tones I typically use their general 'beige' but it largely depends on what I'm shooting. I have a variety of them for that reason.

Please STOP using a white background when showing your images, the pupil of our eye is on auto so it shuts down with all that screen light making the image lose contrast ....
