Portrait shots

In class we did a portrait photoshoot. We did the photo shoot using; a background light, broad light and fill light. While shooting broad light, we took one light and placed it directly onto our subject, this lighting was direct. The fill light was achieved through holding a circular or square like reflector. This added highlights to the subjects facial features, it was quite fun to manipulate the lighting. The background light was achieved through placing a light directly on the backdrop which created a “glow” around the subject
