On this video pro photographer Joe McNally and Daniel Norton from Adorama work on shooting environmental portraits.
Last week we posted a different video from this McNally/Norton photo session which focused on shooting with window light. On this video McNally uses artificial light and natural light and he looks at other aspects of the shoot like nailing the aperture when shooting several people in the frame. Shutter speed also plays a significant role here and McNally shows when looking at the light on his two male models.
McNally also shows an interesting trick of bouncing a flash from the floor to give a little bit more of an extra light in an area which is hard to reach next to the model.
