Ceiling bounce
flash Most of the time I shoot available room light. When I do use flash I use this ceiling bounce technique to light my models when available lighting is not possible. I some cases I have use a wall when the ceiling is not practical. Make sure the light angle is low to the model from a point on the ceiling to the model. I’ve included this page to show you how I use a simple ceiling bounce technique to light my models. This technique will give you a very soft, nearly shadow free lighting on your models. As you can see from the inset image above, the lighting is very soft on the model. The advantage of this system, as you can see, is the light pattern is very large on the ceiling. You could never get an umbrella system this big in a confined space like a small home. This system has worked very well for me when I have shot shower photos with a model in a small bathroom. It is a quick setup and portability is a plus also. The flash unit I use is a Sunpak 555, using 6 AA batteries mounted on a light stand and I use radio slaves to fire the strobe. In most cases, you want to use a near white ceiling to give you the best results. You can do a test metering at the subject to get the correct exposure. But after much use I have a good idea what my exposure will be. The exposure is not as critical as a close direct strobe system. |
