High Key Strobist Photography with Off Camera Flash

A high key photograph is a photo where the background is completely white, and deatails are emphasized through dark shadows. I wanted to take a new self portrait featuring my new Leica M3 ,and I thought a High Key look would fit it best. This is a High Key photography tutorial takes advantage of 2 off camera flashes. One of the flashes is pointed at the wall to blow it out. With enough power, you can blow out a background of any color. The second flash it used to light the subject.

How To

Doing High Key photography can be really easy as long as you understand what is going on. In this particular tutorial, we are going to be using two off-camera flashes. One of the flashes is going to be used to blow out the background, and the second off-camera flash will be used to light the subject.

The first thing that you want to do is to set your ambient exposure. You dont want it to be too bright, or the subject will be blown out right away. You'll want to underexpose the sene, but not by much (unless you have enough flash power). The next thing you want to do is to point one of your off-camera flashes at the wall behind you. Keep pumping up the power of you background flash until it completely blows out the wall. I like to use a wider setting on the zoom of the flash to get a broader beam of light. Remember to keep the background flash behind your subject, other wise the light will affect the way they are exposed.

After you have created a completely blown out wall, the subject can now stand in from of the camera. At this point, the wall should be white and the subject should be slightly under exposed. Use the second flash to light your subject. Again, just keep increasing the power until the subject is properly exposed.
