Sometimes lighting from the bottom works out Photograph Tip

I’ve read somewhere that the subject shouldn’t be lit from the bottom because it will produce unflattering light. Well, I believe if done correctly, you should be able to produce a pleasing edge and fill light as you can see from the image above. For this image, I used 3 lights. A main camera left, a hair light right above the model’s head and edge from bottom camera right.

As a weekend photographer, I found myself with limited time and limited resources in terms of expanding my photographic ability due to my career. Like many weekend photography warriors, there are only 2 hours on the weekdays and maybe 8 hours or so total on the weekend to learn and grow. These time constraints is what motivated me into creating this online photography resource. I needed a photography hub where all the information I referred to is stored in one easy to navigate online location. I see this more of my online repository of photography information gathered through time. I am very proud of the success of my blog offering of "Photographer Interview Series". You will read in-depth interviews from the photography world's famous photographers. Names like David Tejada, Nick Onken, Michael Grecco and David Bean to name a few. The interview series has also expanded to include weekend photographers and now wedding photographers with the similar goal of learning from each other. My goal is to evolve this site to be the premier go to resource for photographer interviews and equipment reviews.
