Episode two of The Creative Portrait is now live. In case you missed my previous post, I am teaching my entire creative process in a multi-episode video series. In this episode I cover the following setups:

• Using a projector as light source

• Customizing images to project onto my subject

• Balancing a projected image on my subject with a strobe on the background and a slow shutter speed to create vibrant, kinetic images

• Projecting custom images as a background

• Balancing a projected image on the background and a strobe on my subject with a slow shutter speed to create kinetic, vibrant images

• Customizing the projected image to my subjects features

• Using a custom snoot on my subject and projecting images through fog to create a colorful haze

• Using a gelled LED on my subject and a strobe on my background with a slow shutter speed to get subtle, painterly results

• Shooting the reflection on a cracked mirror to get a prismatic result

• Bouncing a light into a cracked mirror to reflect the shape of the cracks onto my subject

• Using mylar to create warped reflections of my subject

• Adding water drops to mylar to create an added layer of texture

• Shooting through an air filter to create textured, painterly images
