Low Key Beauty Portraits

- Are you ready to rock out some low key beauty portraits in my studio? These are a lot of fun to create and if you follow along in my step-by-step tutorial video you will be able to create stunning portraits for your clients. Even if you are a beginner, you can add this simple lighting technique to your studio lighting set-up.
For low key portraits, you only need one off camera light source. In addition, you could add a reflector to fill in some of the shadows in the portrait, but beware, because for low key portraits, shadows are our friend.
In this photography training video, Im using a Profoto B10 and a 20 degree grid from Profoto. In addition, Im using a silver reflector from Profoto to fill the shadows.
And don't miss the bonus portrait I create at the end of this training video. This is a one light portrait as well.

I had forgotten how much fun it was to work with a model that took directions perfectly. Thank you Lauren. Of course, your directions made it easy for her. Great job.

😊😅😮😮😢
Tutte le foto che hai realizzato in questo video bellissime, ma l'ultima è wowwwwwwwwww

Ty ty
Wow, that last shot was spectacular. I'll to try to re-create that one!

Loved the lighting in these photos. You really nailed it and your make up artist did such a great job with her makeup made the skin so clean.
ty so much! she nailed it for sure.
Awesome shoot. You are a rockstar at photography, Sal!
ty so much!!
Excellent team work and shoot... wonderful images
ty ty!
awesome shots
Thanks a ton
Great vid, as usual, but man, was I distracted by the music! Never noticed it before...still, I'm loving all the wonderful tips you share. Thanks, Sal!
hmm... interesting i can barely hear any music. :) but ty for watching glad youre loving it!!
hello everyone,
creative, funny and professional at the same time.
That's how it should be, thanks.
Thank you very much!
Great shoot... but for me it got to be with the addition of the red. I do love dark and moody images...
agreed!
This was so dope I’m going to try these tonight ! Thank you ! Still waiting on the outdoor ambient light flash balance with your meter video :)
crush it!
Insanely great shoot, Sal!
Ty ty.
Beautiful images. I’d like for you to repeat the session with a touch of back lighting.
Great idea! but now thats for you to try! :)
Really beautiful Pictures Salvatore your works so great 👌
Good morning from Brazil Sal, man I love your light, excellent video lesson, but let me ask "again" where can you use a polarizing filter in the studio? I know it's used for reflections, turbo blue sky, but I saw some photographers that they It can also help with the color contrast of looks and remove shine from the models' faces. Is that right? What is the advantage of this filter in the studio, hugs my enlightened friend.
ty my friend. as for filter - i have no idea. i cant think of a single reason i would use a polarizing filter in the studio. i mean it makes sense to cut down on shine, but i dont know why i would opt for that vs having makeup actually fixed. that seems easier that trying to use filters, etc. so i cant personally answer that one for you - sorry brother. :)
@@SalCincotta1 imagine my friend, I just asked out of curiosity :)), and thanks again for answering, hugs.
@@josecarlossobrinhoensaiosr904 any time.
🎉🎉😊😊😊
Nothing low key or secret about this video 😊😊
not sure what that means... but lol for sure. :)
YES! THANK YOU! “Height = Hite”
lol
Gotta give a like for calling out that "heighth" garbage
haha.
Just curious, when you metered you said ISO 100. But all the exif info that popped up said ISO 50. JMHO, the last shot I would have liked a touch more light as the red fabric looked lost behind her.
yeah i think i changed it as i was working to get 1 more stop of light. as for the lighting... i think you gotta allow for some video compression... i love the softness of the light in the image - i can see soft texture of the red... but im looking at the actual final image.

Good Evening ,
First : i am sorry ..this hp is trobles .
Second : you are reals profesionals if i see your ac5ivities on this videos . Third : I often saw Mqgazines which Profesions like you often got Vulgatries of Bodies Womens . I think it will make borings to R3qders . Foursth : Howif will you shoot Womems with Completely dreeses ? . Fifth : Good luck .
I have noticed in this and other videos of yours that you touch your models but you don't ask their permission first. While you may do this, the role-modeling this appropriate behavior in your videos would be beneficial to photographers, especially those new to working with models.
well... do hmua ask permission? what am i asking permission for? did you feel i was inappropriate? its weird when people make it weird. i have a set with 5 females on it. these are people and relationships i have with people... if we are all comfortable thats all that matters. i cant "set the example" of how to not be a weirdo in every video i create. These are people ive been working with for years and know personally. if WE are ok with it - THAT is all that matters. right? :)
Her name?
like... its literally in the video in the first 30 sec. did you watch it?
