Tip of the Day: Reflectors Improve Lighting

Many people think that reflectors are only used by pros, and those very serious about photography. This could not be further from the truth. The fact is, reflectors are cheap, easy to use, and are extremely useful in many different styles of photography. You may find a folding multi-reflector from major retailers such as Adorama, and BH Photo and Video for under 40 dollars. If you are on a real budget you can make your own. Look for an article which will be coming out soon, about making a DIY reflector. Keep in mind, reflectors can reflect and at the ame time modify light. Try a golden reflector, and it will bounce warm light onto your subjects. Remember, they are not just for studio use, take one outdoors, and see how much better your portraits could be.
