In this video, I’ll show you how to recreate both golden hour and moonlight looks for portrait photography using just one RGB LED light and a bit of natural light. If you want to create dreamy, cinematic portraits indoors, this setup is super easy and effective. I’m using the Zhiyun Molus X100 RGB and sharing the full behind-the-scenes, lighting setup, and editing tips!

I love it!!! It was really amazing ❤ what was the setting for the blue light? I would love to try it in some self portraits 😮😮
Two months is a while between post. Hope all is well! 🙂
so beautiful and cool ❤
Ok Irene. We get it. You're awesome. Seriosly, these too together. The model and Irene are a great collaboration.
Love both the effects
Photo editing tutorial please ❤
So hard to choose between both but the moonlight… wow !! Your goal of recreating that movie atmosphere was hit bullseye, even better i’d say ! Adding the candle made the shots, the contrast between warm and cool, and the soft glow of the flame on the face is sublime. You are by far my favourite portrait artist ever ! Thank you for all your videos, I want more and more !
What a cool way to simulate sunrise/sunset and moonlight, and be able to film for hours instead of just a few minutes with the actual sun and moon! In practice, while I liked both, I think the moonlight as simulated felt too close and too strong to feel "real". Higher, further away, and less intense moonlight would have been more effective. Still all the pics you showed us turned out amazing!!
Indonesia hadir.. informasi nya trimakasih 🙏
omg, incredible work!
Can't choose, all of them are stunning! Irene, would you be so kind to tell, how you manage to get such a beautiful creamy yellowish skin tone in post? The skin in my raws in such situations is also full of red and magenta, when I try to fix it in editing, it turns greyish-green. I used to think it was because I wasn't able to take good photos, but now I see it's definitely fixable while editing.
I don't understand what you mean by "gritty" photos on the Canon RP.
Blue light better! I liked the sun, but felt there should be more warm glow in the background than just what was on her. But the 'moonlight' Incredibly done.
Hi @IreneRudnyk, could you give me some advice on which evaluative, center, or spot metering to use in portrait photography?
What metering do you use for portraits?
Thanks.
Your video is amazing….You inspire me…
such beautiful portraits, your model is fantastic for the shooting. Good Idea😘
Hi Irene. Where did you get that victorian looking backdrop you covered the TV with? I love it
You've earned a subscriber with this video¡¡¡¡
Vos photos sont très touchantes et sublimes ! Vous avez beaucoup de talent !
Merci pour l'émotion que vos photos m'ont données !
Autrement, je ne suis pas sûre que le doublage automatique soit une bonne idée : la version française n'est pas très bien traduite ; elle est aussi un peu étrange et entêtante à écouter. Heureusement, il est possible de choisir la version originale.
Ich wohne in 3te Etage
Kann ich sowas nicht machen 😅
These are the magical kind of images I aspire to make… Truly beautiful❤❤❤
Your work always inspires and motivates me to get out and shoot.
You are my inspiration 😊thanks for your work ❤
Amazing, Irene! As always! Love the creativity, I'll definitely try to recreate this idea! Just a quick question – have you made a video about focus and how to always be sure that photos are in focus, especially in portrait photography? If not, can you make one?
Love your videos- love your creativity and enthusiasm.
lo sorprendente es que al imaginarse y que cumpla mas allá de su expectativa simplemente eso es el mundo de la fotografía te enamoras mas y mas de tus ideas y resultados ! y eso es justamente lo que amo de la fotografía que siempre aprendes mas y mas 🤩 yo también lo experimento con cada sesión que hago.
Amazing

These turned out so beautiful Irene!! I have a question in many of your videos you are using one shot on your camera. Have you used servo with eye af? I use that with my 28-70 f2 and I hardly EVER lose focus. Im mostly just curious. Obviously you get amazing results the way you shoot already.
Those shots rocked!
