Have you ever been in a photoshoot and felt something was off, but you couldn't quite figure it out?
Most of the time, it's because of one big reason – light.
But instead of tackling light, our tendency is usually to start fussing with props and backdrops and composition, thinking that is the problem when actually sometimes all it needs is a tiny tweak in the light.
But here's the deal – to tweak the light, we’ve got to know what to tweak. We’ve got to understand light.
In this week’s podcast, I'm sharing all about one of the most dynamic lighting direction for food photography – Side Backlight.
Yep, this kid of lighting is my absolute personal favourite and I share all the reasons why it is so powerful. In this episode I also talk about where this light might not be the best fit because that is part of understanding light. Not just where it works but also where it doesn’t so that not only can we create this awesome light, but also know what to do if we get stuck.
The lighting techniques for food photography are not the same as other forms of photography. A solid grasp of lighting in food photography not only streamlines our photoshoot workflow but also propels our skills forward. Understanding various lighting techniques allows us to harness the unique strengths of each type of light, tailoring them to create the mood we want and make the food hero look like a million bucks.
Infact, it is the #1 skill every food photographer needs - a good grip on lighting techniques & the ability to troubleshoot when needed.
I personally think that side back light is a superhero, it is mine atleast & once you begin to use it, I’m certain this lighting style will totally wow you.
Don’t be at the mercy of available light. Create light the way you want and take your photography to the next-level.
