Day 253 – Clamshell Lighting

I’ve been putzing around with these all day in between doing chores and running around. Anyway, I need to start working on using clamshell lighting. I’ve used it before when we shot models in our lighting class, but in that case, our instructor set everything up.  Today I took a stab at it.  Here is a very simple explanation of clamshell lighting, for those of you not familiar with the concept.

Obviously I’m going to need to practice this quite a bit (and with someone other than myself!).

For this next one I put an accent light behind me.
