Mind-blowing amounts of gear, assistants, art directors, location scouts, and the clients all team together to create the extremely high-end work displayed in this book. There are so many great tidbits of knowledge in the case studies. For example, almost every architectural photographer in the book uses dozens and dozens of hotlights for their lighting. It's truly amazing how many resources are actually involved in these images which appear to be naturally lit.

LOCATION LIGHTING SOLUTIONS addresses the most frequent of these issues, going behind the scenes to see exactly how a location is shot, how professional photographers use tricks for special effects and problem-solving alike, and how successful photo shoots are set up. Over fifty professional photo shoots range from interiors to fashion and landscape and are analyzed by a professional photographer with over twenty-five years experience in the field, making LOCATION LIGHTING SOLUTIONS a top pick for any photographer who wants to learn these basics - and for any library with a strong neo-pro photography 'how to' section.
