In this episode, Mark Wallace shows you how to shoot beautiful portraits in a sunny environment. Mark uses a 5-in-1 reflector to create shade and a Flashpoint on-camera flash to separate the model from the background. This technique will allow you to shoot great portraits even in bad light. It’s a trick that’s simple to learn and powerful to use.
