My High-Key Photography

In order to get this picture we used one cone light facing the backdrop with one poly board reflecting the light away from the model. We also had our key light to the right of the model lighting their face in contrast. There was then a back light that we used to differentiate the model from the background. To get the blue tint around the outside of the model we used a phone torch that was being held by the model on their lap and was being shone towards their face.

For this picture we had our key light to the right of the model shining on their face and we had the backlight to the right of the model too. We also had a cone light and polyboard shining onto the background from the left of the model in order to make the right half of the background brighter than the left, thus in contrast. This was the opposite of the lighting that we used on the model as the lights were reversed so that the right side of the model was brighter than the left, therefore, again, creating contrast.
