In this photographic lighting video tutorial, international photographic lighting trainer Dave Montizambert shows you how to create a cozy fire backlit Christmas scene using heavy backlighting that appears to originate from a roaring yuletide fire blazing away inside a front-room fireplace.

Dave explains how to do it “in-camera” for both digital and film capture.
