For a photographer, what matters is the head behind the lens. No matter how good the camera is, the pig head can't take good pictures.

For portrait photographers, no matter in the morning or evening, no matter in the season, no matter when the shutter is pressed, natural light and ambient light directly affect the color and tone of the works. Understanding and using natural light is the most basic compulsory course for every portrait photographer.

There are many advantages to shooting with natural light. According to a survey conducted by a photography website, viewers prefer photos taken in natural light, which may be the instinctive reaction of people who have lived in natural light for a long time. In addition, compared with flash lighting, natural light is more intuitive in application, less restricted by the venue and lower in shooting cost.

However, the premise of using natural light well is to understand it and learn how to adapt to the changes of natural light in the environment.
