Lighting and Portraiture Tutorials

Good Light Magazine Issue #3 Available

Michael Zelbel’s got a new issue of Good Light Magazine available for download. And I’m featured in a spread that provides a rundown on several of my free video tutorials (including embedded video clips). You can download this latest issue for free as an app for your iPad.

I have to say that I was blown away by this latest issue. It’s packed! I’ve always been into ebooks, but I’m not a big “magazine on my iPad,” kind of guy, but this one started turning me around. Even if you don’t think this kind of thing is for you, at least check it out to see what you think of the medium and the articles. If Newsweek magazine has decided to go this way, I think this is probably the future, and Michael Zelbel’s got a good handle on how to present magazine content through iTunes.

Follow these steps to claim 3 months of free access, which allows you to download the current issue free of charge. This free subscription does NOT turn into a paid subscription or obligation of any kind.

Please note that in order to download the app, you must do so on your iPad or your computer (not on your smartphone):

  1. Go to the magazine’s page in the iTunes App Store: http://GoodLight.tv
  2. Install the free magazine’s app
  3. Open up the magazine in your iPad Newsstand & click on ‘Subscribe
  4. Tap on ‘Current Subscribers‘ & type in this current subscriber code: glmag856 (the second character is a lower-case “L”)

The free subscription terminates after 3 months, so if you are fast and you do it right now, then you can download the current and also the next issue of the magazine for free.

It’s great to learn about lighting setups and placement, but knowing the fundamentals is important.  For beginners (and some of us pros), it’s not a bad idea to make sure you understand how light behaves.  FYI, the video above is a great visual reference for the section, “About Light” in my eBook, 100% Reliable Flash Photography. Again, I just want to stress that learning these fundamentals will help you understand how to get great light anywhere, anytime.
