Using a softbox light to the right and a strobe with a colour filter to the left of the shot created a strong divide on Laura’s face. After experimenting with several colours including orange, green and purple, we settled on red as it gave a spooky effect for the photo. I accentuated the red slightly using Photoshop.
This photo features Kira from another photo in the Studio Portraits section. She is silhouetted behind a light, which was linked to the camera using a sync cable. A green filter was covering the light, and the saturation of the green was enhanced when I edited the photo later.
I attempted to recreate the Rembrandt lighting effect with this studio portrait of Lankitha – there is a clear triangle of shadow on her right cheek. This photo required very little editing and processing.
For the Studio Portraits section of the Photography module. This photo features Kira facing away from a single softbox light, in front of an illuminated white background. The photo was slightly over-exposed so this was corrected in Photoshop.
For the Digital Portfolio, one of the photography themes that I have picked was studio portraits. This photo shows Sebastien posing in the studio. Using a single light and a low camera angle, it gives the impression of scale and intimidation. I removed the background lights and ceiling using Adobe Photoshop.
