Another day, another lighting breakdown! 💡This one was quicker and simpler lighting design to usual due to the space and time available.
We decided to use the natural light coming from the conservatory as a large wrapping light on the subject and then brought their exposure up with an additional .lighting amaran 200x.
For contrast, on camera left, we have a large black negative which allowed us to somewhat shoot towards the darker side of the subject. This gave us both the contrast we wanted and depth of the frame whilst shooting wide and centrally for social crops. We then used a small LED panel on camera left to give a pop of a highlight on the contrast side so it wasn’t too moody.
Camera: S1
Lens: 24-70mm f2.8
