Today I worked with my (very patient) sister again doing some more lighting work. This time I went back to one strobe, and tried to add a white reflector.
I tried to concentrate on achieving Rembrandt Lighting with mixed results! The above photo was probably the closest to Rembrandt lighting that I got.
This was probably my favourite shot out of them all, and even though it isn’t Rembrandt, it still felt like “the one” that most spoke to me.
Today’s lessons?
a) I need to learn how to be better at posing people. If that means having a rough storyboard idea before hand, then do whatever works
b) I need a reflector stand and
c) The MacGyver backdrop does not work well on a windy day
