Would have been nice to have at least brushed out her hair.

Just use a CPL to remove the reflections.

What about using a polarizing filter to control glare

[swingbass66]

Good tutorial! I think understanding light is one of the first things up and coming photographers should learn!

[evonyong]

Very helpful tips~!!! Thanks Chris!

wouldn't using a polarizing filter help with reflections?

[surferboy36O]

No, a polarizer wouldn't do any good with the reflection from the glass coming straight forward. They only work on a certain angle range, best around 90º if I remember correctly.

interesting video, I have always been scared of the reflection on the glasses during the shooting.Plese post some more, this time with a different background. for example a darker background/

thank you

[chrisburfoot]

can't get much darker than black?

[cpovey1]

@cannoir I generally raise the offending light, so the reflection is downwards. Having a dark studio also helps with small reflections from misc. objects.

Good basic video for a common problem.
