It can be said over and over, but every time an amazing photograph is published and it's learned that it's a one light portrait, jaws continue to drop. That's definitely the case with this demonstration from Lindsay Adler shooting boudoir!
Honeycomb grids are a great way to direct light in one direction while still creating a soft-edged effect with your lighting, but what happens when those grids are white?
Using two speedlights modified with Rogue FlashBender 2 XL Pro Lighting Systems set up as gridded strips, we can focus the light in a very specific area. Using a strip gives us a soft but narrow beam of light, the grid enhances that focus even more while still keeping the softer quality of light.
Far too many photographers waste countless hours correcting images in post production but it could easily be avoided if they simply spent a few seconds on the basics before pressing the shutter button.
