Lighting How To

We often turn to Joe Edelman for easy-to-follow tutorials enabling readers to shoot like a pro without a lot of fancy gear. In the video below, you’ll learn how to create beautiful bikini glamour photos in less than five minutes.

Edelman provides a simple setup using three to five monolights or speedlights and orange gels. You’ll learn how to position your lights, pose the model, and get an idea about what exposure settings deliver the best results.

As with much of Edelman’s work, the final images require very little post processing. For more tutorials from Edelman visit his website. And be sure to watch a recent video we posted where he explains how to make striking fashion photos with a single light.
