Make Real Rays of Light with Flash: Take and Make Great Photography with Gavin Hoey



https://www.adorama.com

We often see beams of light created my nature but being at the right place at the right time when you’re shooting portraits is tricky. So in this video Gavin Hoey will show you how to use flash to create rays of light on a location shoot, whenever you want them.

Using a single flash fired through a small window, Gavin adds smoke to the scene in order to see the real rays of light. He then adds a second flash to light his model and create a dark and moody urbex style portrait in a disused building.
