The 3 point portrait shot is basically ways to capture someone correctly when using light. the first light we used was the broad light. this light added shadows to the models face. we also altered how the light looked with reflectors from the umbrella on the strobe light. The next light was a back light. The back light was used to create a highlights against the background for the frame to capture. The last light that was used was the fill light. The fill light was used to help the broad light to extend to some further portions of the model.
