In this video I look at the best ways to flag your product photos. Dark backdrops create gorgeous photos but they can be trickier to light than light-colored backdrops.

While there are infinite (and intricate) ways to flag a scene and shape your light, I’m showing you a simple flagging setup for eye level food and product photos using just a few pieces of folded poster board!
