Some Thoughts on Light

At Natural Studio, we love natural light. Many times, we have been able to create some of our favorite portraits and headshots just by working with natural light. The reality though is that depending on only sunlight for a photo shoot can be a risky affair. Especially since we work in New York City, where depending on the weather year-round would not be practical. That’s why we became skilled at using the artificial light from professional strobe lights to create that same type of relaxed, airy, sunlit aesthetic. Light itself is one of our major inspirations. It’s often what makes a good photograph. So being in control of the light is a great thing as it allows us the freedom to focus on our subject, their expression, and all the other elements that make up a great image.
