<p>In this episode of <em>The Camera Shake Podcast</em>, I sit down with photographer and Canon ambassador Clive Booth to explore how to create cinematic portraits using simple lighting setups.</p><p>If you’ve ever wondered how to achieve that film-style look without complicated gear, this conversation breaks it down into practical, real-world techniques you can start using immediately. We talk about lighting for portraits, shaping light for mood, and why understanding shadow is just as important as the light itself.</p><p>Clive shares his approach to minimal lighting—often using just one light—to create powerful, story-driven images. We also dive into his workflow, the importance of preparation, and how thinking like a filmmaker can transform your photography.</p><p>Whether you’re an amateur photographer, a professional, or building a photography business, this episode is packed with insights to help you elevate your portrait photography.</p><p>If you enjoy episodes like this, make sure to subscribe and check out more
