Portrait Photography Study: DAN WINTERS.
Dan Winters is a famous American portrait photographer, illustrator, filmmaker who most recently shot Benedict Cumberbatch for TIME magazine. He knows how to control his light, and does brilliant things with color using film (not Photoshop!) I did my best to recreate his lighting on this first try, but have to admit that I used Photoshop (just a little).
Here’s a link to Dan Winter’s website: http://www.danwintersphoto.com/
(Thanks to John and Jack Liebler, and Justin Paglino for modeling!)
Here’s my lighting setup showing how Dan Winters used black “flags” to block light and create shadows.
