Illuminating the Face - with Peter Hurley

There's so much great content in Profoto's YouTube archives and this video with Peter Hurley is just one example. I've shared some posts featuring Peter, including a podcast on Weekend Wisdom and just recently, a new episode of "Why?"

​Part of the fun of working with Peter is he's simply a good guy, but this video points out another terrific asset - he's an outstanding instructor. Regardless of who your subject might be, the skill set is all about illuminating the face. In this video, really a mini-webinar, Peter takes you through the challenge of being on location, without the control you'd have in the studio. 

It's classic Hurley and whether you're relatively new to professional photography or an old dog needing to learn some new tricks and maybe just needing a refresher course - Peter's about to share one technique after another.

I also love the way this video has been produced, with plenty of great examples along the way showing the results like these two screen grabs below.

A big thanks to Fstoppers for producing this video and, along with Profoto, allowing me to share it here. While the video might have been posted a year ago, there's nothing dated in what Peter is teaching. Check out the B1 and B2 along with the complete accessory line supporting Profoto's Off-Camera Flash System.
