Where Tungsten and Daylight Meet


Today's image is another shot from last Saturday's photography class excursion to the Great Salt Lake. The combination of the blue background and the normally toned bride were achieved completely in camera by lighting the model with several handheld tungsten lights and adjusting the white balance to the corresponding temperature. The naturally lit background then became the wonderful blue tone displayed in the image.

Canon 5D, Canon 24-105 f/4L lens - 1/30 second, f/4, ISO 160

Awesome. I've heard of photographers that carry around a videographer's light for just this purpose. They light the bride (or B&G) with the video light and set WB for tungsten to get an awesome blue background.

Thanks for the reminder! :-)
