Photography Lighting workshops by top fashion photographer Shaun Alexander
Fashion photography lighting by fashion editorial photographer Shaun Alexander
No matter how gorgeous the makeup looks, it is never noticed in photos if the lighting is impaired. Once again, this highly regarded photography skill is mentioned, dragging along the name of world famous fashion photographer Shaun Alexander for his spectacular lighting techniques. Color is important, and he has the talent in letting color and light unite, turning pictures into the most smashing portraits you’d ever see.
Only the best photographers can capture the beauty of each atmosphere, body, person or object. The secret is lighting, according to Shaun Alexander. He takes amazing photographs like no other. With the mastery of photography lighting, he is able to produce flawless candid shots especially the most memorable momentum at the right timing.
Lighting is yet a skill to improve for amateur photographers, but for Shaun Alexander, he has perfectly mastered it. For perfect photography lighting to work, the artist is gifted with an ability to see what would turn images into bestsellers. Where light strikes and does not is similar to considering which part of the subject must be shaded or left alone in sketching. Shaun is quite cautious about his lighting techniques as it is his secret to taking great photographs. He shares this to aspiring photographers throughout the globe.
Those who have no idea that it is lighting that gives photography a spark are likely to ogle and admire the colors, the pose, or how the model looks. Yet they fail to see what’s utterly visible at the moment, what exactly makes the picture as immaculate as it appears to be. It is no other than the light that falls on specific angles. Shaun literally gives light through lighting techniques and he also gives enlightenment with his groundbreaking portfolio by showing how lighting can make a difference in a range of photographs that people are destined to see.
In every picture, Shaun brings lighting to perfection. It took him places in more than twenty-seven years of experience as it does up today. Just take time to marvel at his portfolio and you’ll discover a separate art in photography that Shaun Alexander is known for- his own.

Many photographers wonder what is the best lighting for beauty or fashion photography? Indoors or outdoors?
Strobes or continuous, incandescent or Fluorescent and I always say it makes no difference what type of lights is available to you as long as you know what to do with it.
In my 30+ years of professional life as a fashion photographer I have tried almost every possible lighting scenarios you can imagine, from a 10 dollar home depot halogen light to a $10.000 studio lights and I must say that I have managed to make some of the most interesting images with the cheapest lights
I still prefer the good old natural light over anything, no other lights can even come close to the most beautiful colors created by mother nature
Especially right before the sunset, or as we photographers call is the Magic hour!
No matter what type of light is going to light up your subject, the most crucial piece to a fantastic photography is your GLASS, by that I mean your lenses, and I have a few favorites, like my fixed 85mm 1.4 or even the 50mm 1.1 which would allow me to shoot in almost any lighting situation
Perhaps it is a good idea to have a small tripod with you at all times if you are planning to shoot at a low shutter and a higher aperture setting
I normally don’t like to go any lower than 1/60th of a second if I am shooting a live subject, but I also like longer exposure for interiors with available indoor lights like shooting inside a mall, or a building.
As you know the longer the exposure the crisper and more defined your none moving subjects going to be, but all of your moving subjects become either blurry, or if the exposure is long enough they will completely disappear from your shots.
The possibilities are endless once you get a better grasp of your lighting as well as your camera’s setting.
Film or digital, photography and photographers are only as good as their imaginations.
Photography has always been my passion and the biggest part of my life, and if anyone asked me for a few pointers, I’d say to them
1-Expand your horizons by looking at great master photographers work 2-Shoot something every day 3-Never settle for mediocre shots 4-Create a great team 5-Think outside of the box 6-Own a few great lenses 7-Make images that you will be proud of 8-Create your own style 9-Be open to challenges 10-And finally, Understand your blacks, whites and mid-tones
and if you do that, you should be in a great shape and have some amazing images
