You’ve never used a laser pointer quite like this…

For this unusual and evocative image, Karl tries a new technique of mixing laser lighting with flash. In this tutorial, he guides you on achieving the perfect exposure for each light source and offers his tips for nailing the shot.

He makes use of an unusual combination of light sources, only one of which is a traditional studio light, a couple of balloons and his studio floor to produce an artistic fashion image. As always, his attention to detail, excellent lighting knowledge and creative thinking result in a perfectly balanced yet highly unusual shot.
