Technique Page - High Key Lighting


How to do a High Key Lighting shoot: 
  • Firstly, the studio has to be set up so that there is a white background, 2 lights positioned behind polystyrene walls, reflecting on to the background, and 2 other lights reflecting the subject. Here is a light diagram to show how the set up should be: 

  • The subject can be anything from a model, food, an object etc. 
  • Depending on how bright you want the photo to be - you can increase the exposure in order to get a brighter picture.

  1. where are the light meter readings, you were all given the values during the demo? If you used the settings you would be able to explain how the settings affected the visual outcomes? If you do no know you may either talk to other learners who have done the shoot or attempt to reproduce the shoot and remeasure...
