Exploring and Replicating Natural Light Series: "Shade to Light"

In this video, I pick up from where I left off from a while ago when I explored different forms of natural light and tried to replicate that light with artificial light in my home studio. This time, I'll be exploring "shade to light" or "shooting from the shadows" and will present some photos that I've shot in the past that incorporated this concept.
