Today’s Lesson: Lighting and it’s effect on Mood

All of these images were taken using the portable light with barn doors. I have two of these and they are battery powered, which means you can take them to places you normally wouldn’t be able to take a light to.

Notice how the light, its direction and it’s intensity changes in each photo by changing the angle, intensity and color of the light, we can make people feel the way we want them to.

This doesn’t mean that all the photos have to be dark or scary, on the contrary, you can use the light to enhance or brighten the mood, as seen the last two photos in the series.

Play with light when you do your self portrait. What side of yourself do you want to show, what kind of lighting set up do you want to use?

Use this video as a resource as to where to put the light source to get the look you want.

Written response: In your visual journal write me a paragraph where you describe the kind of lighting you want to have in your Self Portrait. What lighting style best describes you? Find 2-3 example online and include those photos in your visual journal post.
