Outdoor Lighting a Tennis Court Photoshoot | One Godox Light Photography Setups
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.ย. 2024
- We're doing a photo shoot at a local tennis court in the summer. I bought a cheap tennis racket and some tennis balls, and we chose to do our photoshoot in the late afternoon so the sun is a bit lower and we get some nice sidelight from the almost setting sun. I'm using an AD400 pro with an octabox for this entire photoshoot.
In this video I’m showing you how to light a tennis photoshoot with a single Godox AD400 Pro and an Octabox, balancing the sun, with flashes. These technics can also work using any kind of studio strobe, or speed light to balance the ambient light.
The equipment used in my videos is a mixture of Godox, Neewer, and Flashpoint.
Main Filming gear:
Sony a6400 - amzn.to/3qwCtNz
Atomos Ninja Inferno - amzn.to/3mtfz1L
Rode NTG4+ - amzn.to/3sa5KOl
Zoom H6 - amzn.to/47yPc2U

Interesting outfit choices for a tennis shoot
Thank you! We thought so as well. 👍
One of your best photo session and using your light modifier makes this absolutely beautiful!
Thank man! Hauling the gear sucks, but the outcome is worth it.
Super nice!! Thank you for this tutorial , Austin.
Anytime! Thanks for the kind words.
Love your type of shoots!! I hoop you continue making these video's. I would like to see how you get your inspiration and how you prepare for these shoots. :)
Thank you for the compliment! That’s a good idea. I’ll have to try and work in some more inspiration content. :)
Always interesting seeing the mix of hard sunlight with strobe lights. Something I'm still learning how to do well, so I appreciate your video showing off the results you got.
Thank ya! Your work shows you’ve got a great understanding for photography, so you’ll just keep getting better and better at.
Once again, awesome video with great results! Thanks mate!
Thank ya, sir! You’re the best!
Thanks for sharing Austin, as usual great content and this is going to be very useful to me 👍.
Yes! Thank you. I’m glad you found it helpful. =D
Killer work as always!
Thanks man! I appreciate that.
Amazing... this is really inspiring for my next shoot....
Thank you! Let me know goes it goes!
Great shots and great lighting! Of course, the model is fire!!! Just a though, next time use a better quality racquet, a $30 junior racquet cheapens the shot in my opinion. Unless of course it's an ad for that particular racquet.
Thank you! But, It was an $11 racket which already took us over our $0 budget. 😆
The racket does not to take away from how well the shots are lit and how good the model is. Outstanding shoot.
Great style
Thank you kindly! Much appreciated!
amazing
Thank you very much!
great video
Thank ya kindly!
nice stuff Austin. Beautiful light on her! Just out of curiosity, did you ever try to augment the sunlight, but placing the main light on the same side of the sun, and get a bit of wrap around on her? Although I do find the results pleasing with seeing the main on her shadow side , stopped down just to add fill , as you mentioned.
Thanks a bunch man! When I shoot outdoors with the sun, I generally try and use it as a rim light. Although I call the sun a key light, I think in reality I’m most often using it as a rim light.
You could definitely augment the sunlight, but like to use it more like a secondary light source.
It really comes down to what look you enjoy in your images. :)
@austinlindsay I used to shoot sun as natural rim all the time but I've started augmented the motivational light source recently so it's more subtle.
But you're using the octos subtly , so it's not distracting, nice job !
Thank you. I try and balance it well. But, I should branch out and try using the light on the sun’s side just to see how I like it. Do you have any examples you’ve done with the light on the sun side? I’d love to see them.
@austinlindsay I just recently started this approach with portraits but nothing for fashion or sports publicity yet. I shoot a runner next week and I'll show you something, if we decide to go this route based on weather . Augment the direction of the motivating light source, and then maybe a bounce on the shadow side ?? Who knows, just a thought, but your tennis stuff here is subtle, and the rules don't always have to apply I gusss :)
That’s cool. If it goes down it would be interesting to see. And, yea rules are always meant to be broken. Haha
Thanks for sharing Austin. Sorry I have to ask, what size and make is that Octabox and do you like it for light quality/ruggedness for outdoor work?
I’ll post a link to what I have. It’s roughly 42 inches. I absolutely love the light quality from this one because of the textured reflective interior. It’s fairly durable as well.

@@austinlindsay thank you, always great to see content creators interacting. Appreciate your response. I'll probably be looking at the CheetahStand version instead since I'm in the USA. I'm finding the Godox/Glow substitutes not as durable and I've seen a number of users complaining about them falling apart in a year or so. I don't mind a little extra weight with softboxes/octaboxes if it means I'll have a longer life with the modifier.
can make a video on how you edited this images?
Currently I have a 48inch soft box, with a Godox V860ii flash. Could I recreate the light in this scenario with this flash, or is it not strong enough?
Hey! I think you’ll have a very difficult time replicating this setup with a speed light. You need a lot of power to compete with the sun while shooting trough a softbox.
What's the tip I need to know about shooting on location? Who do I need to ask permission for say a tennis court?
This is a public tennis court. So, we didn’t need permission. It could be similar for your area. But, you can always check out your city’s parks and recreation website to see what the rules are for the specific location you are wanting to shoot at.
@@austinlindsay Thank you Austin
@@austinlindsay I just subscribed to you. I like your content. FYI, I'm trying to get in more lifestyle, fitness, and wellness type of shots. I'm going to dig through your collection.
@victordelacruz8440 thank you. I appreciate it. If you have questions I’ll definitely do my best to answer them.
The photos and techniques were great, but no one give any credit to the beautiful model? C'mon man! 😁
I’d have to agree with you. The model is amazing!
What stop ND do you have on the lens or did I miss you tell us in the video?
I’m not 100% as I bought it used to try out. But, I believe it’s an 8 stop filter. I don’t recall what stop I was for each image though.
@@austinlindsay Literally as I hit enter it came up in the video haha, typical. Yeah I was looking at the camera settings confused as hell til I saw the end of the camera :)
I don’t see any cords...could someone explain how they’re using the lights out there
The lights are battery powered.
I have Aputure lights for filmmaking, and they can run off VLock batteries... VERY convenient.
Yes! V-Lock batteries are super useful!
Nice video ! But you could have used a "real" racquet ! ;-)
This one was real. I was able to touch it, and pick it up, and everything.
tennis player in a bikini... hmmm ok
Stop staring at her. Why does she have a bathing suit on for tennis?
Because that’s the look we chose for this photoshoot.
My intention is not to offend, but absolutely not, the little clothing that the model is wearing and some of those poses seem in very bad taste to me, in a swimming pool it would not have been so out of place, but on a tennis court with a bikini and a pink sweater on the shoulders, it seems ridiculous to me, the child's racket is also out of place, the light a little underexposed but they don't seem like bad images to me, a good idea poorly executed.
This video isn’t about what to wear in what scenario, it’s meant to teach people how to light. And we just so happen to be sooting, poses, and outfits that we like to do so. You don’t have to like it, but if you’re going to comment at least teach me something factual. All I learned here was what your opinion is of this video, and that is of little use to me in my daily life. I don’t mean to offend either, but just wanted you to know my honest unfiltered thoughts to reading who’s. Cheers.
I mean to offend, stupid ass comment guirado
