It is important to understand what a light modifier is and how it will impact your portrait lighting or headshot photography. Umbrellas, softboxes, brolly boxes and beauty dishes are all important lighting tools for photographers.

In this portrait lighting tutorial I am going to break down the differences in studio light modifiers, using gear from LumoPro, Wescott, Photoflex, Adorama and more. I will discuss umbrellas, brolly boxes, softboxes and beauty dishes to help you understand HOW and WHY to pick the right one. I am also going to show you the different kind of light they each produce. Be sure to stay tuned until the end and I will teach you a cool little trick for testing catchlights before you shoot.

The primary goal of ALL of these modifiers is to broaden the light source so that you don’t get the harsh shadows that are created by direct flash. Remember that in general – the bigger the light source, the softer the light. The lessons you will learn here work for speedlites and monolights.
