Lighting

Lighting will affect the mood or tone of your image.

Photography is all about light so it is important that you get this right.

At times it may be necessary to use artificial lighting (such as flash or spot lights) to have more control over the end result.

How you light a subject can have a dramatic effect on the final image, so think carefully and experiment with lighting:

  • How strong is the light?
  • Is it direct or indirect?
  • Does it come from above, below, in front, side on or from behind?
  • What colour is it?
