Probably one of the most informative videos on lighting for beginners out there. And it doesn't require you to splurge on expensive equipment.

I love the way you present things. You don’t talk about your life during 10 minutes, drinking coffee, … It’s to the point, clear and with affordable gears. Great job!

Sheer genius for the hair light never seen that technique before. This video will help hundreds of beginner photographers or anyone who is on a budget from getting discouraged by thinking they need to have exspensive gear to create beautiful images. I have saved this video for a quick refresher for lighting when I need it. Many Many thanks!!!!

Love the way you explain so easy to understand for someone who is not a native English speaker!

Very nice and short, thank you!

One of the better portrait lighting tutorials using an umbrella--thanks a million. I always learn something useful from your videos/tutorials. Peace.

Fantastic. I'm a videographer working in a very small studio. Most of the examples I see use huge lights, high ceilings, flags, add tons of gear to get the same look you achieve with efficient use of a single light in a small space. I'm going to adapt these portrait techniques for interviews.

Awesome, love the way you present , point to point in an simple manner, great to watch and learn

I needed to take a portrait shot for my mom on short notice, and I was able to recreate the set up I needed with a florescent light and white bed sheets using this knowledge! Thanks so much

Covers a lot of ground in little time: the result of practical knowledge clearly demonstrated minus the bullsh*t and embarrassing self-promotion. Very well done

5th is my favourite!!!!!! love it

Great video

FIRST! Love your content Pye!

Great presentation. Simple and concise.

Very interesting, thank you for your video.

Brilliant,,, looks so easy to do

Awesome 👌

Thank you thank you thank you, love the way you explain , point to point in an simple manner, great to watch, very helpful !

Really good stuff Pye

The backlit shot was a little hot and would look better with dramatic feel or just less backlight amount. Adorama has the best instruction videos

Absolutely outstanding!! I love it!! Plus, an affordable budget setup for beginners or pro

Good...

Anyone see how smooth he rolled that reflector up. That takes skill lol. Takes me 5 minutes every time.

great tips ! thank you i will definetly try this

Thanks for this great little presentation!!

Love this-thanks

Awesome 👍. I love your style... cool as ........ Keep doing what you do man 👍

If you don't have reflectors or v-flats "Brooklyn reflectors" aka pizza boxes work as well ;) @lastxwitness

Thanks Pye!

Fantastic

Great one #iAmCROSSPATH

Get a pie of Light from Pye!

Did they continue this series with 2 and 3 lights 🤔

Great video breaking down the setups. Thank you. Can you link the grip arm used in clamshell setup? looks like a matthews stand or is it Flashpoint? can you use arm on regular stand or only on c stand?

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Hey Pye. If I need more power of modeling light on b10 and b10 plus for continuous lighting setup, what should I do? Any other solution to avoid using other brand of LED?

What was your flash set at? TTL or something else?

manual ot TTL ?

What are the flash settings?

Pye where I can get that backpack?

So why would you pick a Rembrandt or Split or Loop lighting? I wish portrait lighting videos talked more about the motivators like wanting to show an emotion that's part of whatever story that only Rembrandt is good for and wouldn't work as a loop... but instead they stop at this light adds drama, this one doesn't. Maybe I am about to answer my own question but is it that the more mysterious qualities of the emotion behind the subject of the photo (not just the person in the photo) then that's when we choose a split or Rembrandt over loop or paramount lighting? I wish I had more faces come to me who cared this much more than "just pick a lighting that makes me look slimmer" :P But seriously, this kind of thing might be useful to discuss, huh?

Lemme be

Zippers always (!) get stuck at the worst times, don't they?

Great video
