DIY is where we started, and we love to return to it whenever possible…especially for tutorials like this.
Columbus, Ohio-based photographer Nick Fancher believes that you can “studio” anywhere, turning the most ordinary locations into quality pseudo-studios. In this video (after the jump), Nick shows us how he constructed a simple and portable v-flat lighting configuration using (what appears to be) foam board and tape.
The setup is pretty creative, especially with the built-in snoots. But, the real beauty of this v-flat configuration is that you can customize the reflective center to create custom catchlights in your subject’s eyes.
Nick has an interesting video series entitled “Studio Anywhere,” and you can see more of his great work on his website.
So, be creative, and get creating! Maybe even build a custom reflector in the shape of your logo for some shameless advertising…
