Beyond the Flash: Unlocking the. Potential of Constant Lighting in Photography

I was invited to be part of Westcott Wednesday, hosted by B&H Photo Video in their Event Space, and this is the recording of that live broadcast. As I'd been using constant light more and more when taking portraits, I was asked to talk about my experience of moving away from traditional flash, and how and why I feel it's made such a positive impact on my portraits, not just for me but also for the person being photographed. I go through the constant light I'm using and how I'm using it, along with tips on how I take portraits, and hopefully you'll see how well constant light works alongside them. It had become the cornerstone of my portrait work, and it brought a new level of creativity and enthusiasm to my photography.

Westcott Wednesday: Unlocking the Potential of Constant Lighting

So here’s a date for the diary …

In conjunction with Westcott and B&H Photo and Video, on the 15th May @ 3pm EDT (8pm UK) I'll be on "Westcott Wednesday" going through the WHY, WHAT and HOW of using Constant Lighting when taking portraits.

Thid will be the latest installment of the regular Westcott Wednesday series hosted by B&H in which I’ll be, as the description says …

Join us for this presentation as Photographer Glyn Dewis takes us through a journey shifting from traditional flash to constant lighting in portraiture. With a mix of image examples and behind the scenes, Glyn will explain how constant lighting has become the cornerstone of his portrait work, injecting a newfound level of creativity and enthusiasm into his photography.

“At first, using constant light almost felt like cheating but I’ve since completely changed my mind because aside from being under no illusion of the results I get and the ease of setting up, more than anything it enables me to concentrate even more on the person in front of my camera and the concept we’re working on.”

Oh and this event is FREE , will last about 1 hour and will be over on the B&H Event Page on YouTube ( LINK )
