Although today the majority of images are created in color, black and white photography has lost none of its fascination. It demands a different way of seeing from the photographer and directs the viewer's gaze to the essentials. While in color photography the colors can quickly become a distraction and thus affect the main message of the image, in black and white images there are far fewer elements available to the photographer for creative design.

Many photographers have great respect for working with artificial light and especially for the use of flash units. One often hears that flash light changes the message and effect of an image or appears unnatural. This may be the case if used incorrectly, but with a little practice and an understanding of how the flash works, outstanding photographs can be created.

Streaming is becoming more and more popular in private, but also in companies. Viewers are close to the action and have a closer connection to what is being shown thanks to the direct transmission.

Only a few artists are lucky enough to have a certain lighting named after them. Anyone who has ever dealt with the possible types of light in portrait photography knows that, in addition to the high-contrast chiaroscuro, which was made famous by the painter Caravaggio, it is mainly the Rembrandt light that is often used and never goes out of style.

The folding reflector is inexpensive and yet one of the most versatile tools in photography. Portrait photography in particular shows how versatile the utensil can be used. Shadows in a scene can be brightened with just a single variant, which is often equipped with several colors, the light can be controlled in a targeted manner and appears softer, and the reflector can even be used to darken it if necessary.

The relationship between humans and animals is unique. Anyone who has a pet of their own can attest to that. It is therefore more than understandable that the most beautiful moments with the dear animal companions should be photographed.

Nothing is as important in photography as light. Even the best photographers can't take pictures in the dark. However, light is not only essential when creating a picture, it is also a creative design tool.

Beginners often shy away from flash photography. The many terminology seems too complicated and besides, every now and then one succeeds in creating appealing photos solely with the available light.

Shadow-free photos give a professional impression and make objects look particularly high-quality. In addition to the correct lighting, the background and the underground are mainly important when creating shadow-free recordings. With a few little tricks and the right accessories, amateur photographers can now also photograph objects in their home studio without shadows.
