How to make children's photography without flash

Common strongpoint-free combinations generally use three or more lamps, which can be quartz lamp, tricolor or led lamps. Generally speaking, soft boxes are the main ones, and they can also be used with bare lamps. As a backlight, the naked lamp should not be too close to the baby, otherwise it may cause excessive exposure to sallow.

1, double soft box: The combination of double soft boxes is often used for shooting scenes with simple background and not much light. Visible light is more conducive to the photographer to control the light ratio, and the baby's skin color can be easily restored without a flash. The double-layer soft box is also the best lighting combination to show the delicate skin of babies.

2. Soft boxes and bare light: When the background is rich and there are real scenes and props in the scene, the simple double soft boxes are not enough to create the light of the whole environment. At this time, naked light can be used as background light, and it can also be used as backlight to hit people. The naked light is hard, which can emphasize the baby's outline, and the rich light and shadow changes also make the picture more spatial.

3. Soft box with overhead light: To achieve the effect of overhead light, you can invert the soft box with a high tripod, or install the three-color light box on the derrick or the roof. The use of the dome light is to ensure that there is enough light in the foreground and background, and the shutter speed can be appropriately increased when shooting, which is beneficial for photographers to capture lively babies.

4. Double naked lights and reflectors: Bare lights are hard, suitable for showing some scenes with large light contrast or strong light, and can also be used for more personalized scenes. When using, pay attention to the light not to be too close to the baby, and properly control the light ratio, otherwise the effect may be counterproductive. Bare lamp can also simulate the effect of sunlight, and can use reflector to supplement light, reduce contrast and make people and background more harmonious.
