PORTRAIT LIGHT SETUPS

These are my examples of the different kinds of portrait lighting.

I like these ones the best!

Rembrant




Lit usually from the front top area.

Glamour



These are usually lit by a reflector and soft box to get that soft lighting.
Here you see marilyn monroe looking glamourous as ever!


Side lighting


This photo set up would simply be a light source lighting a subject from the side and getting a cool side lit affect.

I like this guys hair in the photo.
