High Key Shooting
More Light than Shadow
(76 votes)
Summary
Two lamps, a model and a bed!
Steven Van Veen shows you how to make high key portrait pictures in a studio setup that won't ruin your bank account.
He explains what defines a high key picture: one which is very light but not overexposed with a few dark details.
With two lamps, whose function and influence on the lighting of the photo are explained in the video, a model and a cloth, he takes pictures straight from heaven!

Simple but Effective
Very effective results with simple means. The results are very pleasing and the flipped B&W examples really work well!
I need a studiooooooo
I like that step- by - step- explaination. He speaks very clearly and slowly so that I can understand him very good. Want to shoot high-key. NOW!!! But there's no room where I could do that... :(
Nice ^^
Good explained. I didn´t knowed that there are this small tripod. I need one, thanks for the tip! :-)
SO NICE

Criminal!
Information, such as shooting each light source separately before using them in concert, is invaluable, and a huge time saver while working through the experimentation stages of using studio lighting. Tomorrow the information may be free and readily available, but for now you should be charging $$$ even with these introductory tips!
