My best gel tip is in Outdoor Portrait photography. By using a warm color gel on my main light illuminating the subject by warm light. The tip is decreasing the Kelvin in my camera's settings to compensate the warmth on the subject and add coldness to the background in order to get more saturated blue sky..💙😄

I did the combination of complementary colours with gel and smoke. It is amaaaaasing! The tip there is if you are using main/back light is that your main light is stronger that main and it is positioned behind the smoke so you can have that 'came out of portal' effect! Thanks for the video, I was struggling with the light bleed and now I am going to catch up that DYI grid for speedlight. Great job man, keep it up! 👏

Just started researching Gels after watching a photographer shoot a wedding with two speedlights on stands just like yours. The speedlights were one foot higher than his head and about 7 feet away on each side of him. He was shooting at 1/4 power with what looked like a CTO gel on each one. On his camera screen, the photos look great. We will get the edited photos shortly and I can see if they are still as good as what I saw on the screen. Spyros, as always your video gave me a lot of good information that I can use as I dabble in gel photography!!

Hi, I'm starting photography with flashes, I've ordrered speedlights and will try tomorrow. Just one question: Do the lights on your ceiling stay on when you shoot? Cuz I did some testing with constant lighting (umbrellas) pointing on me and a white background (no flashes for now), the background is showing on the pictures. How come your background disapear when you shoot if the lights stay on? Is it the flashes that create some king of magic effect, making the background become dark? Thanks for your answer
@spyrosheniadis
5 жыл бұрын
Good question! When I am shooting with flash, the studio/ceiling lights do stay on, but they do not show up in the photos. This is because you can control the ambient exposure (light from the ceiling lights) separately from the flash exposure (light from the flash.). This video explains in more depth: kzitem.info/news/bejne/tZ-c346whaCTqm0 What that means is that when using flash, you can (usually) black out any/all ambient light from the photo, and light the photo entirely with your flash(es), even with room and other lights on. The reason the background is showing in your photos with the constant lighting is that the constant lights you were using (the umbrellas) were the same type of light as your ambient/ceiling lights. They’re all continuous lights. Definitely check out the video I linked above, that will explain it in much more depth. Additionally, I’d recommend checking out this video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/pK-m4IeDe56Df4I That video goes through the step by step process of setting up a flash shot, including the process of controlling/blacking out your ambient light, as well as the process of getting your flash exposure just right.

Well done, Spyros. I appreciate the second viewpoint in your examples. Makes me want to get out there and take some damn photos! ;) I like to use a gel on the hair light, rim light or back light. Adding a touch of color sometimes enhances background separation and makes a shot more dynamic. I really like the examples of cross-over complimentary colors, and using flags. Thank you!
