5. Use snow for reflected light in open shade. In our CONFIDENCE workshops we’re always talking about looking for open shade. The snow acts like a giant white reflector, instead of green grass or a neutral surface (like a parking lot or playground). This reflects that solid sheet of brightness back up onto our subject, which is like holding a piece of paper underneath your chin and taking a photograph. (try it, it’s fun!) With the reflected light from the snow, our subject is illuminated softly and evenly without harsh shadows and squinted eyes.
