Why Studio Lighting • Studio lighting is an essential addition to most photographers’ arsenal. It allows us to create natural lighting effects in a variety of situations, and is far more controllable than a flashgun. And, with so many options available nowadays, it doesn’t have to be confined to a studio.
Strobe Lighting • This type of lighting is more commonly known as flash lighting, as the light will ‘flash’ each time the camera is fired, and then recycle its power. Within the remit of strobe lighting, there are several variants. The most popular, and budget friendly, are monobloc lights.
Continuous Lighting • Continuous lighting is light that’s on all the time, so it doesn’t flash like strobe lighting. There’s a huge discrepancy pricewise when it comes to different types of continuous lighting.
Softboxes, Octas & Rotaluxes • Softboxes (square), Octas (octagonal) and Rotaluxes (rectangular) are probably the most useful accessories you can invest in. They soften the light and even it out, providing a beautiful light to illuminate your subject.
Umbrellas • White shoot through umbrellas are probably the most common of brollies. Shoot through refers to the fact that they are made of a similar white diffused material as softboxes.
Barn Doors • Barn doors are small rectangular ‘doors’ that clip onto the side of your reflector, and allow for very precise directional lighting. They are particularly useful for lighting a background evenly.
Snoots • Snoots are long cones in solid black, which narrow to a small hole at the front. They are often used for highlighting hair, due to the directional small light they provide.
