In this video I talk through a really simple and easy to set up creative wedding photograph using one speedlight, a MagMod grid, a red gel and a fractal filter.
Fractal filters: www.getfractal...
The great thing about this photograph is that it can be taken in almost any wedding venue, all you need is a dark space and a clean background - showing that even if we don't have a photogenic venue, we can still create really cool and unique wedding photography portraits for our bride and grooms.
A huge thank you to Demi and James for being such awesome models and also to my friend and amazing wedding videographer Jonathan Anelli for filming this video for me. Check out Jon's work here: redseats.co.uk/

Great video. Thanks.
hello Neil ... that fractal comes with two more accessories ... maintains the same technique and for light day applies ... Thank you for your knowledge ... greetings from cali-colombia.
Yet another inspiring video from Neil ! Thank you so much. Whoever was doing the video work did a great job. Your explanation and video footage goes well together. Kudos to your team 😊
Thank you very much Vivek! My friend Jon was filming, he's awesome
Awesome Neil, your work inspires so much always
Thank you so much!
wooow loved it!!! you're so great and the way you share all your knowledge makes you an amazing person. Thank you so much for all your videos.
Thank you so much Marine, you are very kind :)
Thanks, Neil, for another great video! I might add though that on a real wedding, I have mostly found the couple not to have a lot of patience, so once you do this on a real wedding I think one should have been training a lot to make it as quick as possible. I would die of stress if I would try this on a next wedding without practice. Thanks for the creative ideas though!! Your videos are very well made and you are a good teacher.
Thank you very much Manuel :-) Yes, you are right, it isn't easy to do this at a wedding but it's definitely possible with practice as the more you practice shots like this, assuming you set up before calling over the bride and groom, can be done in literally seconds. It's all about practicing the technique first though to give you confidence. Thank you so much again :)
That is genius. Many thanks Neil.
Thank you very much!
You are so awesome for these tutorials! Thanks for your simplicity in showing us!
My pleasure, I'm pleased you are enjoying them Jose!
very generous Neil thanks!!
It depends on where you shoot the wedding and your ability to kill the ambient light but, it's a secret weapon you want to have in your backpack! Such an amazing video thank you :))
Thank you very much!
Awesome Neil
Thank you Robert!
That's the hell of a shot man!
Thank you!
I'm so amazed at how you break down your amazing techniques so wonderfully! They are all gems! & thank you for the links to the fractals. I was just going to ask where to get my hands on one of them.
Thank you so much Richard, I really appreciate your kind words
Bless you Neil
Thank you Babatunde
Neil did you Zoom the flash? Or you left it at wide was just wondering.
Neil, this is wonderful! Thanks so much for the extremely detailed walkthrough also.
Thank you so much Myron!

New follower, I found you this week and been going through your old videos. Thank you for sharing your informative & creative photography and look forward to future uploads.
Thank you so much Tim!
@@NeilRedfern Are you doing any talks at the Photographyshow NEC Birmingham Neil ?
Afraid not Tim, I may go but it's very much as a bargain hunter than a speaker
Wowww amazing shots. Love it
Amazing
Sold on the grid! Just about to buy from your link! Well played sir!
Thank you very much Jamie! Just remember you will need a maggrip too unless you already have one
Neil Redfern just bought the starter pack. I have Bowens flash heads but are just too cumbersome and heavy. Will post results soon! 👍
Great stuff, I hope you enjoy using them as much as I do! That's the best thing about this set up, so small and light in comparison
Top job.
You are Awesome, Please Keep It Up for Us,You are Best
Thank you very much!
Thank you .... very helpful
Thank you Mahisin :)

Welcome...
hi, can i asking where can i buy that fractal piece? thank you very much. ur content is superb.. always like to watch ur new video update.
Amazing video
Thank you Ron!
Neil... great video. I recently came across your channel and have found your advice really useful. The one thing I’ve always struggled with is creative off camera flash, but broken down simply as you do it all seems to click. The one challenge i sometimes find is nailing the focus when staging the shot in dark conditions... any tip on this would be hugely useful. Thanks for sharing... 👍🏻
Thank you very much Ross, I really appreciate that. Yes, you're not on your own, lots of photographers see flash as being scary and difficult but when you bring it all back to basics it can become much easier and hopefully I can show that in my videos. You're totally right about the focus too, a good tip is to give the person you're shooting a phone with the torch turned on, ask them to light themselves so you can get focus, then ask them to hide it away. Or do as I did here and use a Sony - which absolutely nails the focus every time and much more reliable than my Nikon
Neil, thanks so much. I think the problem I find is trying to do too much or multiple shots and then putting time pressure on things. Keeping it simple and planning one or two really good shots is definitely the way forward I think. As for Sony, I’ve been toying with the idea of switching for a while, but have so much £ tied up in all my Canon gear... maybe it’s inevitable though!
I totally agree Ross. I will only try one "creative" shot like this per wedding usually and the couple know that I'm basically playing around. I only take these images once I know I have enough "safe" shots. And yes, that is exactly how I was with Sony for a long time, but then I tried one and it was game over.....! Haha
Look into the godox system you will love it! Appreciate the videos!! 🙌🏽🙏🏽
Very nice. Thank you sir.
Thank you!!!!
My pleasure Enrique!

Thank you!
Another great video Neil. I know you said your favourite lens you where using was 35mm, is that a Sony Zeiss ?
Thank you Tony! No, I use the Samyang 35mm 1.4, half the price and virtually no difference in quality, only downside is the Samyang isn't weather sealed
Great video! This kind of tips made me subscribe to your channel and I'm glad that I did. Keep doing this! From where did you bought that fractal glass?
Thank you so much Teodor! Very kind of you. I bought the fractal from www.getfractals.com/
Top!!
What a video sir,u r genious sir,one question what is these products u r used this photograph
Thank you very much! The piece of glass is called a Fractal Filter :-)
Neil awesome wish I could show you image I did from your inspiration. Can I have a link to get the fractal you have?
Thank you Sol, I'm really pleased my videos are inspiring you to try similar shots! That's great to hear :) Yes, the fractals are from here: www.getfractals.com/
Where do you get a fractal filter.? P.S: I'm from Romania
and I don't know where I could find something like this or something like fractal filter, this is AMAZING 😍!
Thank you very much! There is a link to the filters in the video description :)
Hi Neil, Thank you for this video. Whats the name of that circular tool and where we can buy that?
It is called a Fractal Filter - there is a link to their website in the description :)
Neil, very good video indeed :) I looked for a link to where you got the fractal, but I couldn't find it. Can you paste a link?
Thanks :)
Henrik
Thank you very much Henrik! You can get the fractals from www.getfractals.com/
Nice one!
Just one question: When you were setting the diameter of the red spot, would using the speedlight’s zoom have worked as well as moving the light stand fore & aft?
Thank you Peter! Good question but no, the zoom has virtually no effect when you are using a grid as the grid narrows the light much more than the zoom could
Hi Neil would using or having the use of hss made the image any better or have an advantage?
Also where did you get the fractal glass from, tried Amazon and e bay I must be searching using the wrong description!
Hi Nigel, no HSS wouldn't have made any difference to this shot. If you are based in the UK, the UK supplier is called Rigu - please let them know I sent you 😊
@@NeilRedfern cheers Neil I will check that link out!
Neil thanks a lot for the video!
I'm from Brazil, could you please let us know where did you get the fractal filter from?
Thank you brother!
My pleasure! No problem, it is from here: www.getfractals.com/
@@NeilRedfern Thank you very much brother!
where to buy it.thank you so much
There is a link in the description
Great video and tips Neil. Do you have an Amazon or similar links to buy such fractals and modifiers? Thank you.
Thank you Babu! The modifiers can all be found on my link here: www.amazon.co.uk/shop/neilredfern and the fractals are from here: www.getfractals.com/
@@NeilRedfern Thank you very much for your quick reply Neil. Awaiting more and nore useful videos like this...👍
From where I get this in india ? Any suggestion ???
How to purchese this mirror
Neil, do you have a default setting you zoom the flash head to when also attaching a grid? Thanks
No default but it's probably on 85mm most of the time. You may as well zoom the flash in when using the grid because when you use a grid the zoom makes no difference to the final result
Where I buy this accessory I have the MagMod! But I do not have that crystal.
Hi Wilson, here is the website for them: www.getfractals.com/
Sorry.I couldn’t find this on Amazon.
Please tell me about website page.🙇♀️
Hi Yuca, I don't have the link to hand but if you look at some of my other replies to comments here you will find it :)
Hi what is the name of that tool you use for your creative picture?
It is called a fractal filter :)
