As a general rule of thumb photographers try and keep the source of their light out of their photos. However there are times when you need to see the light glowing in the photo and that’s known as a motivated light. It can be the sun, a window, a lamp or in this case a glowing crystal ball.
Join Gavin Hoey as he walks you through the setup of a fortune teller shoot with motivated light created in camera and then follow Gavin in to Photoshop for so simple tips and adding a realistic glow to the final photo.
