Simple continuous lighting can produce beautiful results for many types of portraiture. But good lighting tools can only get you so far. Knowing how to position them and set up lighting ratios will give your results that professional touch.



This lesson explores the use of a single main light with a reflector for a fill light and main light with a second soft box as the fill light. In both lighting versions, continuous lights are used (both Tungsten and fluorescent) rather than flash or strobe lighting.
