Natural & Artificial Light
Natural and artificial light is available whether you take photos indoors or outdoors. Understanding the difference between these two types of light is essential to create the most effective results.
Natural light offers a unique look to your photos that can’t be duplicated with artificial lighting. From the soft, diffused glow of a sunrise to the dramatic shadows of a stormy day in the mountains, there is no one-size-fits-all look to natural light.
On the other hand, artificial light is easy to modify and direct. It’s an excellent option for studio portraits and even works well for nighttime outdoor photography or situations where natural light isn’t available. It is also more consistent than natural light, making it easier to achieve the desired photo. For example, you can use artificial light to fake a sunset by creating a three-point lighting setup using a key light, fill light, and backlight.
Off Camera Flash
Off-camera flash is an excellent option for photographers who want to take their photography beyond the limitations of their camera’s built-in flash. To work with off-camera flash, you’ll need three things: a camera that supports TTL (automatic) flash metering and has a hot shoe; a compatible flashgun that works in Manual mode; and a way to trigger the off-camera flash.
An everyday use for off-camera flash is to provide fill light to a subject in bright sunlight, where the sun can cause shadows or cause the camera to expose the background and underexpose the foreground. Some use an octal bank softbox to balance daylight and add fill light for their portraits.
Off-camera flash can also be used for more creative lighting options, like illuminating the background with a different light color than your main subject. Others suggest using a strobe with one colored gel to light the subject and another external flash with an extra gel color to illuminate the background, creating a backlit effect.
