Rainy days aren\u2019t always the easiest days to get great photos for a whole bunch of reasons but with a bit of effort and a lot of luck, you can get amazing photos.<\/p>\n

However if getting wet isn\u2019t your thing, it\u2019s surprisingly simple to bring the rainy weather inside and under your control.<\/p>\n

In the video below I\u2019ll show you how you can create a rainy day window portrait using a couple of flashes and some simple props.<\/p>\n

The main thing you\u2019ll need is a \u201cwindow\u201d and although you could use a real one I opted for a sheet of clear Perspex (also called Plexiglas or clear Acrylic). I\u2019ve had my sheet for many years and it\u2019s very scratched but still serviceable. www.wickes.co.uk\/Wickes-Durable-Acrylic-Sheet-90cmx1-8m\/p\/210002<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
