What if the biggest difference in your photo isn’t the light… but where you stand?

In this episode of How Did I Shoot This One?, Frank Doorhof breaks down a simple studio setup and shows how changing your lens, camera angle and distance can completely transform the look of an image.

From the familiar 70–200mm to shooting much closer with a 24–70mm, discover how perspective, distortion and leading lines can turn a simple setup into a much more dynamic photograph.

Sometimes you don’t need more lights. You just need to move.

Watch until the end, then try it yourself the next time you shoot in the studio.
