lowkey lighting / high key

low key photography contrasting effects shadows
Black backdrop creates contrast/mood/shadow
Different ways to set up low key photography, ISOS make sure it's low because if its high the photo you take will look too bright.

Light is on 4
Distance light make a difference
Whiteboard is to reflect the light
Good for a profile
Adjust the light to 3

Set up 2
You would have 2 of the lights on a low setting eg 3
Set up 3
Silver brolly
Face it up
Light is on 4 low the light softer


























What High Key Photography is? (Infinity lighting)
We want the whole backdrop white,
Two cone light are called flash reflectors, they just need to light the backdrop. (they need to be set up on 4-6 which are the highest settings) the purpose of it is too light the whole backdrop white.
Model light would be on your model, this would add lighting to the setup, if it’s too bright you’ll have to set that backdrop like lower to create the best lighting for your photo.
Your Backlight brings your model (subject) forward,
Silverside of a reflector, give you more contrast so it makes the shadows darker. Silver would be used for black and white pictures generally.
The Gold side of the reflector gives you a warmth colour, and this would be used for coloured images generally.
