Front Light Key in Studio

September 30, 2008

This is front light with key light in the studio. This time the dominant light is the key light without a bounce card directly in front of the subject.

Front Light Fill in Studio

September 30, 2008

This is my hand person posing for a front light fill in the studio. The light fills in nicely on the front of the face with a low contrast.

Fill Light with Studio Flash

September 30, 2008

This image demonstrates fill light with studio flash in the studio. I placed the studio light with an umbrella on the side to create the fill and there is a shadow behind the manikin.

Fill Light with Bounce Card

September 30, 2008

This is an image that demonstrates fill light with a bounce card in the studio. It brightens the entire photo and the light from the umbrella bounces off the white reflective card.

This time I demonstrated side light with low contrast. I kept Katie’s hands in the image again to show the difference in the contrast on her fingers compared to the high contrast fingers. Katie is peaking through her fingers as well to show the lessĀ intenseĀ contrast.

This photo demonstrates side light with a high contrast in the studio. Katie’s hands show the intense contrast better then a face alone would. I especially like the contrast between the fingers. Bright lights scare Katie!

Backlight in Studio

September 30, 2008

This is a light lid I found in the studio. I thought using it as a backlight prop would be ironic since there is no actual bulb coming through the lid but the back light causes light to shine through.

Smelly Cat

The question is if the cat is yawning or hissing…

I included the overhead lights in the photo to show the available light and how it effects the image. I like the repetition with the overhead lights, tables, chairs and windows.

Front Light with Natural Light

September 26, 2008

In order to capture natural light indoors I decided a room with a lot of windows would be a good idea. I thought the arrangement of the tables and glasses and how the light hits the glasses adds good aesthetics to the image.
