Shape light before you shape the edit
Simple changes in direction and diffusion often do more than an elaborate equipment list.
Observe the source
Walk around a subject and note how the source changes texture, depth and catchlights. A notebook of observations becomes a reusable lighting reference.
- Compare side, front and back light
- Diffuse hard sources with fabric or paper
- Keep a repeatable setup note
Make colour intentional
Set a reliable white balance, then decide whether a warmer or cooler shift supports the story. Consistency matters more than chasing a universal look.
