Rainbow Lighting Photography

Stefan Giftthaler's Glass Magazine Series Has a Soft Ambiance

I love the soft and colorful lighting technique used throughout this Glass Magazine photo series. It creates a vintage effect that is charming, misty and, when coupled with the rather retro high-fashion showcased in the shoot, establishes a serene ambiance.

Shot by Milan-based fashion photographer Stefan Giftthaler, the Glass Magazine photo series is pretty straightforward in spite of the dreamy lighting. It is this rainbow-hued, romantic lighting that makes the standard poses stand out. Aside from that, the nature and room shots lend a quietness to this series that really makes you appreciate each serene image calmly. I like the fact that the Glass Magazine photo series isn't overtly sexual, but elegant in its subtle suggestiveness.
