As the sun sets into the night and natural light becomes scarce, get creative with the artificial light sources available around you. Illuminate your scene by candlelight, a glow from your phone screen, or a beam from the open refrigerator door.

We recently released The Artificial Light series, our latest filter pack that softens or boosts the effects of LED, fluorescent, or mixed lighting scenarios. Ideal for indoor, food, and night photography, AL1-AL6 can transform scenes with tricky lighting to appear either more natural or even supernatural.

Combine light sources

Explore and experiment with unexpected forms of lighting in your own home. Get creative and pair different kinds of light together, such as the sun’s natural glow with a candle's flame or the bold color of a lava lamp with a nightlight. The combinations and possibilities are limitless and can produce unique results.

Soften colors with AL5
