BLOG WEEK 6 POST 2- Lighting research

Lighting in a fashion photoshoot is important for creating the right atmosphere, bringing out textures, and improving the overall look of the pictures. Different types of lighting produce other effects that change how the clothes and models appear. Soft lighting, like natural light on a cloudy day or light from a softbox, helps to reduce harsh shadows and creates a smooth, flattering look that makes the model’s features and fabric details stand out. Colored gels or tinted lights can create artistic effects, setting a specific mood or theme for the shoot. Choosing the right lighting is essential for achieving the desired aesthetic, whether it's a bright and airy editorial or a moody, high-fashion campaign.

 
This photo is a great example of soft lighting while still capturing the details of her shirt and jeans. Her body remains sharp, while her face has a softer look, creating a nice contrast. I really like this effect because it enhances the photo, giving her a more angelic and polished appearance compared to if her face were sharply defined. The lighting is focused on both her body and face, adding to the overall aesthetic.
