    Aaron breaks down all the interesting ways you can use your 5-in-1 in your portrait photography – right here, right now!
    Basically, the job of a 5-in-1 Reflector is to give you a few different options to diffuse and bounce Light. The inner surface of these reflectors is almost always a diffusion panel, meant to have Light shine through the fabric before it hits your subject. The outer surfaces come in a variety of colors – usually, you will see gold, silver, white and black. Each of these will bounce Light in their own way.[molongui_author_box profile_layout="layout-7"]
