Images lit with HDR Light Studio
“HDR Light studio has made lighting faster, more accurate and more fun for me. The traditional way of lighting in CGI always felt awkward to me. After trying out HDR Light Studio on a project, we have never lit any scene without using it.
Dario van Houwelingen, Owner, DVH Creative Studios
