Join Daniel Norton OnSet as he transforms the hard specular light from an “on camera” flash to a studio-quality beauty light with some simple tools and an understanding of light. For clean beauty portraits, we tend to like a large diffused source, so transforming our speed light into one, is what we will do! Reflecting or bouncing light off a surface is a great way to make it larger (soft), as well as more diffused.
