Portrait Assignment



For this assignment we learned about two different lighting technics. The first is called the window light portrait. For this one you use sunlight and a white bounce card on the opposite side to combat the shadows from the sunlight. The second one is called the "3 - point" Lighting Setup. This involves having a backdrop a hair light to help separate the subject from the background, a key light which is the brightest and a fill light which helps remove the shadows. Between the key light and fill light you want about a 60 - 40 balance in brightness.
