Benny Migs

Alternative Portraiture (eBook, ePUB)

Artistic Lighting and Design for Environmental Photography

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, Benny Migliorino teaches readers how to work with speedlights-lightweight, relatively inexpensive, and powerful palm-sized flash units-to create dramatic, dimensional, flattering lighting. 'Migs' presents 60 portraits shot in a wide range of environments-from cramped quarters and fluorescent light, to dimly lit rooms, to makeshift "studio” spaces in a client's home or office. Readers will learn critical lighting skills from reducing the contrast range and creating softer, more flattering light; to re-creating traditional studio lighting patterns in varied existing-light scenarios; to adding fill for a rounder, more dimensional view of the subject; to overpowering the existing light; and working in mixed-light scenarios. Whether you're working solo or with an assistant, with one speedlight or multiple units, using "bare” (unmodified) small flash or harnessing its power via flash-mounted or freestanding light modification devices, you will learn how to make quick work of creating professional, evocative portraits that bring out the best version of your subject and highlight the personal connection he or she has to their personal environment.

Autorenporträt

Benny Migliorino (Migs) began his photographic journey at the age of 14 and has been a working professional photographer since. His style is sure to intrigue the mind and evoke emotion.? The Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) honored Benny in 2006 with the First Place award in the Group Portrait category, as well as the prestigious Grand Award in the Portrait category with a perfect print score of 100. The Professional Photographers of America (PPA) awarded Benny the Photographer of the Year Award and Master of Photography Degree in 2010. "Photography is not a job, it is a passion of mine and is therapeutic in many ways to me. When you feel so strongly about something you love, it has a way of showing in the final product and my subjects get to see that as well.” Benny continues to reinvent himself to ensure that his work never gets stale or mundane.
