Portrait Demo

At the beginning of the week we were told that we were going to be working with portrait photos. We learned about the 3 point light set up which has a key light, a fill light, and a hair light. The majority of the light comes from the key light which is on either side of the face. the fill light which is on the opposite side of the face gives some light to make the other side of the face not look like its in shadows. The hair light is on the top of the head or on the back of the head to make it look like it has some depth. After learning how to capture a good portrait photo it was my turn to go out and try to get one and this is what I came up with.
