Nick Jonas • Certified Shooter ♻️📸 on Instagram: "Your Strobe placement MATTERS 📸 - many tutorials suggest positioning strobes at a 45-degree angle, they often fail to mention the importance of the strobe’s direction. Instead of facing the subject directly, the strobe should be angled downward, mimicking natural sunlight for a more authentic look.
