Creative Beauty Shoot using Gels + Optical Spot | Photo Deconstruction

In this Photo Deconstruction I'll take you behind the scenes of 4 light creative beauty shoot. This image was taken during one of my "creative play days" where I collaborate with my team to test new concepts, play around with lighting, and just have some fun! I highly recommend doing these types of shoots as they allow you to experiment and continually stay inspired. 0:00 Intro 1:21 Behind the scenes 5:35 Final result 6:57 Straight out of camera / Post processing Resources mentioned in this video: 👉 The Magic of Gels: https://lindsayadler.photo/gels 👉 Optical Spot Guide: https://lindsayadler.photo/opticalspotguide 👉 Creative Studio Lighting Guide v2: https://lindsayadler.photo/clg2 👉 In person workshops: https://workshops.lindsayadlerphotography.com 💡Lighting (4) 1.
