Lighting with Flash: Sports, from Action to Portraits


In this installment of the Lighting with Flash series, photographer and
Strobist.com publisher David Hobby demonstrates using strobes when
shooting sportsin this case, some kids playing soccer. After providing
an overview of his lighting strategy, David shoots some action shots
of goalkeepers diving for the ball. Next, he shoots some portraits
of the soccer players, employing a compact softbox attachment as a key
light.

In the second half of the course, David photographs a group of fencers,
transforming the bland lighting in a gym and freezing the athletes'
action as they leap. Afterwards, he shoots a group portrait of the
fencing club.
