Lighting Videos by Andrea Belluso

Think outside the softbox
With Andrea Belluso


The softbox might be the most popular Light Shaping Tools there is. But just because it’s so common doesn’t mean that you can’t be creative with it.

To prove this we asked light shaping guru Andrea Belluso to do four different fashion setups using only softboxes in an out of the box kind of way.

Never one to back down from a challenge, Andrea came up with four unique solutions. He used the softbox as side light, he used the softbox as top light, he used it to create a hard light, and he used it as back light. None of his techniques were ordinary, but all of the results were extraordinary.

How did he do it? Watch and learn.
