The Natural Light Portrait Book

In Mastering the Natural Light Portrait , professional photographer Scott Kelby teaches you how to shoot and edit great portraits in natural light. Scott covers all you need to know, as he discusses everything from his go-to lenses and camera settings to capturing natural light — whether that's direct sunlight, window light, shade, etc. — and then covers a variety of different lighting scenarios and offers tips for how to work with and modify the light to create a great portrait. Once the shoot is over, Scott covers his process for editing the images. You'll learn the core types of edits that you can apply to all of your natural light portraits, then dive into different techniques for reducing distractions and making the face the most eye-catching part of the photo. From soft northern-exposure light to dappled light, Scott teaches you how to analyse the photo, plan your approach, and get the most out of what Lightroom and Photoshop have to offer.
