Lighting Techniques For Digital Photography


Lighting Techniques For Studios - Portraits - Products 

No matter what type of photography you do, lighting will always be a huge factor in the outcome of your pictures. Realizing the importance of how light effects your photography sooner , rather than later, will ultimately determine the rate at which you become a more advanced photographer.

Because there are so many variables that determine the lighting techniques that you should use, it really is important that we understand EXACTLY how certain lighting techniques work to improve our photographs as well as create desired effects.Light can be reflected, filtered , spread, and so on.

Importance Of Proper Lighting


The way in which we light our subjects is relative to the objects being photographed, where our photographs will be displayed, what we want to accomplish with the photographs and more. And just like most everything else that photography involves, we always have creative freedom in the final details of how we will light our shot.

 There are definitely guidelines and we cannot avoid the fact that certain lighting techniques and kits simply work well in specific situations. But once you understand these common concepts , lighting techniques will become second nature and the quality of your photographs will be proof of your professionalism and photography knowledge.

Here are some of the different photography situations that require there own specific lighting techniques:



  • Portrait Photography 
  • Product Photography
  • Trick Photography Effects
  • Magazine/Photo Shoots

Portrait photography for instance, will utilize several different lighting techniques, equipment and kits. Because the scene for a portrait can range from 1 person to an entire family and occasions such as christmas and graduation photos, the number of different styles and ideal lighting situations will vary greatly.



On the other hand, something like product photography , when used for smaller products, such as jewelry and such, focuses on making the objects stand out. This is usually done by using 'light boxes' or 'photo tents' as a way to create the perfect light "spreading" within the shot. The bottom line is that our lighting techniques are used as a way to eliminate shadows , create a focus on certain features as well as hide certain features.

Although this is one of the more in depth and advanced digital photography subjects , once we understand the basic ideals of photography lighting , our overall ability to create proper lighting for any photography situation will be easily recognized.

How Understanding Your DSLR Translates To Better Photographs


Developing a more in depth relationship with your digital camera will ultimately allow you to think in very practical terms when forming your own unique photography style. Before we move on to framing and lighting techniques, we must know how manipulating the manual settings will bring out the features and aspects of a shot that we find most interesting. When we imagine a photograph of an animal, or bride or what ever it is we want to shoot, we should always have an idea of what exactly we are trying to capture in that moment.

Once we get a feel for the type of shot and the feeling or mood we want to portray, we must know how to highlight the element in a way that draws the viewer in , while expressing our artistic ideas of the shot. Not knowing how to manipulate our dslr's settings properly is like a painter that is stuck using 2 colors and a single brush - there is just no way to convey more in depth moods and aspects without using all of the tools available to us.

The 1st Step In Understanding Manual DSLR Settings


Many new photographers become overwhelmed initially, but actually, learning the different settings is not that difficult. Not only will you find some easy to understand descriptions of the 4 major manual settings, but there are some great photography tricks and effects tutorials included that will involve the use of the settings. Simply follow the step by step instructions inside the guide and instantly learn how various settings actually work!

After you create a few digital photography effects using the settings, all you have to do is experiment with them, making slight adjustments to see what works. It really is that easy, there are really no rules to photography. Its all about YOUR style and how YOU see certain shots. All you have to do is get started and try out some different techniques. After that you will see manual settings in a more manageable way , giving you more confidence and freedom in your digital photography.
