Essential Lighting Modifiers for Product Photography

From grids and snoots to softboxes and reflectors, there’s a wide range of modifiers you could use for product photography lighting.

Knowing which modifier to use and when depends entirely on the product you’re shooting and the lighting effect you’re trying to create, so it’s important to understand what different modifiers do.

In this class Karl provides an overview of some of the most commonly used modifiers and accessories for shooting products to help you understand how they work and what effect they create. These include softboxes, reflectors, honeycomb grids, snoots, scrims, and even light cones.

  1. Hello, Karl Taylor.
    Great videos. Sorry, I have one question, what word did you use on this video at 05:24 minutes? How did you call this kind of light? Thank you.

    hi karl,
    I notice your honey comb grids have damage/bent and missing bits would this impact the final picture much?

    1. Hi Jack, yes a little and it reminds me I should replace some of them. I also have ones that are still in full working order!
