- Hello again!
These are three of my favorite ways to light for portraits using one light in the studio.
So far this is the most instructional video I've made so far, so please let me know what you think in the comments below. I'm still super new to CZcams and appreciate all the feedback.

I LOVE this shoot! I would love to shoot like this every day.
Great model, great lighting, great commentary. And I totally recognized the sound of that shutter! The 5D Mark III is one of my main cameras.
Thanks for posting this!
Hahaha love my 5D3 💖 glad you’re on the same gear!
❤❤❤ your teaching instructions.. clear & simplified, with great review adding sketch drawings after each setup. All 3 portraits were great, my favourite was #2 with the hair flipping. Looking forward to more inspiring videos from you guys.🥰
Aw thank you so much, Betty 💖 we’ll do our best!
Good stuff Renee! I really like how you buttoned up the segments with the little drawings. That's a great way to lock down the specifics of each lighting layout into an easy to remember mental image.
Thank you so much! I’ll see what I can do for future videos. Glad to hear the stick figure drawings are such a hit haha
So useful! With the use of the reflectors, such great examples of not only using 1 light but manipulating it. To do different things. Props to your model for having such great awareness of her hair and limbs and fingertips and where the light sources were, you can see her experience and she rocked these photos!! Love these videos, it’s like we can hang out even though are are far away ❤
Aw thank you, my lady! 💖💖 and yeah, Jane is a fab model!
As someone who uses one light a lot, I really enjoyed this. The drawings are well done and quite helpful in really understanding what you did in each set up. I look forward to many more of these videos.
Haha thank you! I’m so glad you like the digital doodles!
All the 3 styles are awesome. I've learnt a lot from this video.
That makes me super happy! Thanks for watching! 💖
Very fun to watch this shoot! I appreciated your concise teaching and fun shooting style. Beautiful images and great variety of looks.Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching ! I’m very happy you enjoyed it :)
Wow! Great lesson! I’m going to watch it again , take good notes, and then do some serious practicing. Can’t wait to see more of your videos.
Thank you so much for watching! I have more videos coming 💖💖
Oooh, that hair flick is excellent! I will definitely be trying that. Thank you for this great video!
She does great hair flip!
It is great to see you sharing your work here once more!!
The plan is having something come out every 2 weeks! :)
You're a great teacher! Thank you :)
Thank you for watching! 💖💖
Only just ceme acryour channel, lovely pictures from simple setups, great !
Thanks so much!
That boom and stand combo is sooo useful!
It’s the best!
Hey There!
Really love this and the 3 point light ballet video. I also picked your course over on Pro EDU for your composite work because that's definitely the area of photo industry I am interested in. Thank you so much for doing all this!
Ah thank you so much for watching! I hope you enjoy the course! 💖💖
I think lighting setup number 2 was my favourite of the 3, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video. I like the tethered shooting setup as then client can view along as well!🔥
Totally the best!

I really appreciate it, thanks!

This is clean real world work. I love it. where have you been my whole CZcams life ;)
Whelp, you’re here now! More coming :)
Entertaining and informative! I'll have to try that 3rd setup sometime very cool.
Yesss! Do it! It’s so easy ! You can make it with reflectors or just some white paper haha
Superb video! I learned so much!

Outstanding thank you 🥰
Thanks for watching! ^_^
beautiful Images
Thank you so much!
Love the drawing
Ahaha thank you!
images look great
I appreciate it, thank you :)
I love your model so soft and yet hard edged.
Thank you! She was great to work with :)
I appreciate how you share a diagram of the lighting set up & of course the edited images as well.
I’m so glad you enjoy them! It was kind of a gamble if anyone would appreciate our chickenscratch 😅
They work quite effectively. @@ReneeRobyn
I’ll see what I can do to get you more of them! :)
@@ReneeRobynI wondered if you had used some cool software to create these diagrams no?
Nope! Just screen recorded in procreate on the iPad :)
Hi Renee, great video. Can I just ask if setup two was with a grid or is the dark background just because of distance?
I had a grid on it 😇 good catch! The distance of the paper to subject changed only by inches between each photo. So the grid is doing all the heavy lifting on light control.
Hi Renee, can you share the arm's brand with the lever that is holding the light on top of the model. Thanks
Hey it’s a manfrotto :)
Hey Renee, great one light setups. I will definitely a few of them. I was wondering can use tell me the name and where you purchased you boom and stand from. I've been looking this particular setup in boom and stand.
It’s manfrotto !
@ReneeRobyn thanks for making this amazing video tutorial on lighting, and I’d love to know what is your camera and lens combo.
Haha just my super old canon 5D mk3 and a sigma 70-200 sport
@@ReneeRobyn awesome kit
@@leonard187 it works! 😅 after all these years hah
What is the second light above the background that you raised up in the beginning doing? Is it for separation from the background?
Oh no that’s just for the third look :) I didn’t use it for any other photo session.
Great video. What Kelvin do you shoot in?
Thank you! Kelvin for the video or for the photography ?
@@ReneeRobyn my pleasure 😊. Kalvin for the photography.
It was about 3200 I believe :)
For the 2nd set up, can you use a burst mode with a strobe?
If your strobes can handle burst mode, totally! Mine don’t have a fast enough recycle time with the power I was using.
@@ReneeRobyn Thanks a lot for your reply.
Of course! Thanks for asking good questions :)
If those are bullet holes you need to work on tighten up that group. Grade A video on photography
Bahaha well played
👍🏾👏🏾📸100% sure those are bullet holes😊
Worst grouping ever 😂
"Those aren't bullet holes" is what I also tell people when they ask about my bullet holes.
Bahahaha
Genuine question why a hood and 300mm lens in a studio? You said one light but there is plenty from the studio
Hood so I don’t get lens flare, plus it saves my glass from getting bumped or scratched because I’m often not paying attention where the lens tip is going.
And it’s one strobe light. The photographs aren’t impacted by the continuous light. If they were, the cover image would have been impossible.
And it’s a sigma 70-200, and I use it because I like the compression and my studio is big enough to use it :)
Is your model wearing body makeup? Her skin is very light in this session. But, in her jane doe instagram pics, her skin tones are quite different.
I can’t speak for her Instagram :) I just edited the images to how she looks on my camera.
I don't understand calling this "one light" when there are literally lights everywhere
The other lights aren’t affecting the shot. They are for video purposes.
@@gregshawphotography8828 I disagree with that. The other staged lights are close enough and bright enough that they are influencing the shot. Turn all but one of these lights off and the picture will look completely different. They may night be influencing the shot as much as if they were closer, but they were clearly setup for this photography session.
If we call this "one light" then what do we call a session when there is actually only one staged light used? A "really only used one light" studio?
You try F/9 at 1/200 ISO 100 and you will get a black frame. The shutter speed isn’t too fast for these lights.
Hey those are for video lights 😂 because the studio would be very dark and boring with just the modelling light.
The video is shot at 50th of a second, f 2.8 at 3200 ISO, whereas the photographs are taken at iso 200, F9, and 200/S. I have photos where the lights didn’t fire and they’re totally black 😂
I am going to assume that you don't understand many things.
