Studio Lighting: Perfect Lighting




First I would like to start by saying, aren't my models beautiful?

These series of pictures are represented as perfect lighting. My photos go from lightest to darkest but you can clearly still see every detail in their face with hardly no shadows. The first photo (Sara) is used with all lights turned off except for one. I adjusted the light in a way to make the photo dark but yet you can still see Sara'a radiant face! The second photo (Maddie) is taken with all the lights off besides two. The main lights were turned off while 2 sets of the same light was on. By me moving the lights around i got a beautiful photo of Maddie with a "medium" light. The last photo (Sara & Maddie) is used with all lights on meaning the main light and two other lights shining on them. Not only can you see both their faces clearly, their are no shadows on their faces.

In every photo their are practically no shadows and you can see their faces very clearly in a dark light a "medium" light and a bright light.

NAME, GRACE MAC.


In this photo, I took 8 photos using objects and nature to make 1 picture spelling my name.

First Name...
G: The lower case g is made up of 4 Japanease tea cups and a Japanease tea holder. The tea holder is used for the top portion circle and the 4 tea cups are placed upside down to form the bottom loop.
R: The lower case r is the end of a hat. I cut out by cropping the rest of the hat by just showing the ending for the hat making a lower case r.
A: The capital A is parts of a picture frame. The picture frame could hold 5 photos and by cropping out the rest of the frame and only using the right corner, it forms to look like an A.
C: The lower/capital C is a part of a alarm system. It fell and when it was on the floor, it looked like a c. It is the part that covers the battery.
E: The capital E is a part of a cupboard. In the middle right is the handle to open the cupboard  and on the cupboard it has lines and a design to make it look like a capital E.

Last Name...
M: The lower/capital M is made up of the bottom of two wooden chairs. As you can see the two chairs (the part where you sit and the back. The M is made up of the legs that hold the chair up.
A: The capital A is the top part of a fire extinguisher rotated to look like a capital A.
C: The lower/capital C is made up of 4 remote controls that form a c.

As you can see, I made every picture black and white then shaded out the parts that form the letter so it really stands out to the viewer. Then I set the background to black.
