Here you can find the webinars and instructional videos I posted on the blog.
In this episode I take you behind the scenes during the workshop Smoke with our model Linda.
Because we also get a lot of questions about how to shoot tethered to the iPad I’ve also included a segment explaining what I use to shoot tethered but also how we get the images on the studio screens.

We all know how hard it can be to get the perfect expression from a model. And don’t even start about laughing… terrible.
But with this little trick it might surprise you how easy it becomes to get some stunning and fitting results… just be careful your model doesn’t die from laughing….
In todays blogpost a quick tip about stacking filters.
I’m using the Frank Doorhof K&F Concept kit which contains the 1/4 and 1/8 Black Diffusion filters with a magnetic connector for super fast and easy switching, but you can of course also…. well combine filters this way, so let’s take a look at how that looks.
you can order the kit from frankdoorhof.com/shop or in your favourite camera store that sells K&F concept.
I love using my Hensel strobes in the studio or on location. But sometimes there are situations where it’s not feasible to bring larger strobes, but luckily there is the speedlight. Or the new (very popular) round strobes. When using speedlights I also want modifiers that are lightweight and don’t take up a lot of space in my bag (preferably it should fit my back pocket). Check out the video about the Rogue Flash Snoot below.
When I first looked at the system it contained an omnidirectional dome, a gel holder, and grids. It was already a very flexible set, but in the video below, I show you their latest addition to the magnetic system… the Rogue Flash Snoot.
A snoot makes it possible to really pinpoint your model. Especially with speedlights that are placed further away from a subject a snoot is essential and makes a huge difference. But Rogue didn’t just release a snoot, they actually made it possible to use the snoot in 4 different ways. And when you’re using speedlights even 8 different ways, which makes this snoot incredibly flexible.
The reason is pretty simple. When we work on location it’s not always possible to place the lights exactly where we want. With the zoom function on your strobe, you can focus the light slightly but in most cases, you need a lot more focus. And that’s where the snoot comes in. The reason you can use it in 4 different ways is that with each setting you create a slightly smaller circle, meaning you can focus the light very flexibly. In most situations, this makes the Rogue snoot a really valuable asset in your kit which makes it possible to really fine-tune your light if you can’t move the light as flexibly as you would like. Combine the snoot with a gel and you can use it for a really nice accent light on the background or a very small part of your subject.
You can order the snoot on www.frankdoorhof.com/shop or in your favorite store that sells Rogue products.
