Photography lighting, or rather lighting for photography is the most important aspect of taking photos. Whether natural light or artificial, you will have to gain useful knowledge of its use for better images.

Read here how different kinds of lighting will help your photography.

What Do We Mean by Photography Lighting?

The word photography comes from the Greek roots φωτός (phōtos or phōs) “light”. Mixed with γραφή (graphé) it adds “representation using lines” or “drawing”.

Altogether, it means “drawing with light”. Photography without light is like trying to write without ink, paint without paint and using your iPhone without battery.

You can’t. As you can see, it’s not only important…it’s necessary.

There are two ways to capture light using your camera. One is natural light, which is the most widely used because it’s already there. The sun gives it to us for free, so it would be silly not to take advantage. The other is artificial light, added to our scene from flash or continuous lighting.

Ambient light is another term that you need to be aware of, and it can be natural or artificially present.

By reading our extensive guide, you will learn how to fully utilize light in all its glory.

Knowing as much as you can about lighting will help you with your photography. It is a difficult area to master, but how the light hits your subject is very important.

You can experiment with side lighting, backlighting, and many ways to soften harsh shadows.

To get to know more about different lighting methods, read our article about 12 photography lighting facts.

There are many different lighting systems available. A studio tends to have big, powerful units. It’s also usually plugged into the wall.

Smaller versions, known as Speedlites, are portable and run off AA battery power. This thorough article gives you all the information you need to get started.

Having light hit your subject is paramount in being able to capture them. But there are many different types of light sources you can use.

Every light source has a colour. This colour cast is added to any subject or object that the light hits. The closer the subject is to the light, the stronger the colour cast is.

Have you have ever tried to capture an indoor scene, and felt it was too orange? This is the colour temperature of the light source, the light bulb in this case.

For the most part, you can fix this in post-production. But you should aim to set a correct white balance in the camera.

This article will give you all the information you’ll need.

When photographing an outdoor scene, you’ll often encounter a mix of light strength. For example, capturing a building and the sky on a sunny day.

If you use the light meter reading for the building, the sky will overexpose. This means it will lose all of its details.

Similarly, if you use the light meter reading from the sky, the building will be too dark. This underexposing makes it difficult to see the present details.

Here, the sky is about 2-3 stops lighter than the building. There are ways to correct this problem, all of which you can find in our article.

There will be many times where you’ll want to capture more ambient light in a scene. Photographing indoors means low light, and slow shutter speed is necessary.

But as you use slow shutter speed, everything becomes blurry. This is down to camera shake. The shutter is open long enough to capture the slightest movement.

This is where slow sync comes in. A slow shutter speed adds more light, and the flash freezes the subject. This eliminates the shake and blur.

Read our article here on how and when to use it.

Low light is always a challenge for photographers, as we often need to trade quality for exposure. Action photography and low light are like bickering siblings.

They don’t go hand in hand, as the settings for both scenarios clash. Focusing on the light will present the blur, and obtaining the action means an underexposed image.

Here, you will need aperture, ISO and shutter speed. Using these effectively helps capture enough light, keeping the quality of the image high.

Read here on why your lenses are important for low light. And also how to use your camera for higher quality images.

There was a time where if you didn’t use a light meter in your photography, you would have to make an educated guess in capturing the correct exposure.

Fashion and portrait photography were the main users of these meters, working with complex lighting systems.

Now, all our cameras have an inbuilt light meter, helping you capture the right amount of light.

Read here on why you need a light meter, and which of the two different ways would suit you better.

There are times when you are looking for soft light. For example, capturing a bride as she is dressing for the big day.

At other times, hard light is needed. Especially if you are looking for contrast in your scene.

Our article runs through how to create and take advantage of these two lighting styles.

Backlighting your subjects gives you more of the background in your shot. Instead of hiding it, you let it shine, boosting your subject in the front.

By adding light in the background, you create an airy and warm scenario. It isn’t as moody as a full-frontal light situation. This lighting technique also allows you to create silhouettes.

If your scene is giving your camera a lot of light, you might consider high-key photography. The high-key refers to the excessive use of lights and lighting in the image.

This is a technique you would use for product photography. It allows you to remove most if not all detail from the background. It can also come in handy for creating artistic portraits

For all high-key photography questions, tips and techniques, read our article here.

Natural Light Photography

Most photographers love natural light. It is free, it’s abundant and easy to work with. To harness the full power, you will need to diffuse or even flag the light.

One recommendation is to know how you can use your reflectors effectively. By bending and warping the reflector, you can change how the light hits the subject. By making it concave, you help to intensify the light and create a spotlight, rather than a soft lighting effect. You can also make your own DIY reflector easily at home.

Check out our article to learn more about making use of natural light.

Natural light has many advantages. It’s free, abundant as is right with you where ever you go. At midday, the sun is at it’s strongest, no matter where you are.

At other times of the day, natural light changes. The golden hour is the period of daytime shortly after sunrise or before sunset. This gives your scene a ‘golden’ warmth to it.

The time of the year also denotes how the light plays with your subject. Our article here has all the tips and information about the best time to take natural light photos.

Flash Lighting

When to use a flash is one of the most asked questions regarding photography. Some photographers steer clear from it, as they want to remain candid shooters.

A flash can add a significant change to your images, day and night. You can use it as a main light or even a fill to an otherwise well-lit scene.

There are times when a flash is a big no-no. Some events or concert photography makes using a flash impossible.

Read our article on all the information you need. To flash or not, that is the question.

A wireless flash trigger lets you control an off-camera flash. Here, the speedlight flash connects to a wireless hot-shoe which connects to a transmitter. This sits on your camera’s hot-shoe.

The signal is sent wirelessly, allowing you to place your flash anywhere. Perfect for scenes where a flash on your camera is detrimental.

It is a very simple device to use, as long as you get the right one. We have all your questions answered here.

A TTL (Through the Lens) flash uses your cameras on-board metering system. This allows the flash to intelligently ‘judge’ how much light to pump into the scene.

This can be a hit or miss, as it depends on your scene and metering mode used. For example, spot metering mode forces the flash to add enough light just for that single point.

When using evaluative, the flash will add enough light to bring up the exposure of all objects. This can lead to over-exposure and loss of details. Perfect for high-key photography lighting though.

If you’re stuck between TTL and manual flash modes, we have the article for you.

A bounce flash is a great way to light a subject, especially if you’re looking for a soft-lighting exposure.

Harsh light isn’t the best fit for all types of photography. Perhaps the subject in front of your camera has a light colour range. With bounce flash, you retain the details within it.

How do you bounce the light? As your speedlight or flash utilizes a swivel head, it can be turned many ways. This allows you to point the light source to walls, ceilings, and reflectors.

Harness the power of the bounce flash here. It might be the trick you’ve been looking for.

Undoubtedly, we will deal with situations where the scene will have varying degrees of exposure. The background might be lighter than your subject.

Here, a reflector can bounce a little more light back into the shaded areas. For a stronger light source, consider using a flash. By adding a little light from a flash, you can bring out the details that fall into shadow. This light is known as a fill flash.

This is a very handy photography lighting trick, especially for situational portraits.

All flashes are equal, but some flashes are more equal than others.

Believe it or not, every flash or speedlight utilizes different settings that can help your photography.

So which one should you use? We take into account five of the best flashes available. If you own a Nikon camera, the answers are here.

Food Photography

Using natural light might be the best way to start and practice with. It is abundant, free and everyone has a window they can use as their source.

It is also available outside for shoots, for example, in a park or on-location. Here, a diffuser sits between the window and the food.

This creates an even light fall and to take away the intensity of the light source. Reflectors can be used to help bounce the light back towards the subject, softening harsh shadows.

By no means is it easy, but it is by far the cheapest option that works any time of the day.

Rather than using natural light, a softbox is a great option. Great for studios with no windows, or times when the sun isn’t as strong as you want it to be.

The softboxes are pretty inexpensive, easy to put up and pack away. It is a viable choice.

Using one light will leave you one set of shadows. Combining the light source with reflectors help to minimalize these harsh areas. This helps pull out the detail and gives a constant flow of light

This tool is easily moved for different angles, and it also dims or intensifies the light.

Studio Lighting

For those getting into studio photography, the lighting will be slightly different. You can of course use speedlights, but they might not offer you the power you need.

Studio setups often have many different types of lights. You are likely to find softboxes, rim lights, barn doors, grids, and strobe machines. They all have their purpose.

Our main tip is to start small. Obtain the equipment that you know you are going to use and add to it slowly.

For all other tips on what to look for, go through our article here.

There are many different types of artificial studio lights available. Every light, whether Strobe, LED, Tungsten or Fluorescent have different purposes. On top of this, you’ll notice that each light adds a different colour cast to your subject.

A Speedlight is a small, mobile flash system. these are perfect for situations away from a studio or indoor location. Most photographers use these ‘on-the-road’.

Strobe lights are bigger flash units. These aren’t as mobile as speedlights, and they can’t sit on top of your camera.

Read our article here on which one is best for you and your photography work.

Studio lighting can become very expensive, especially if you don’t know what you are doing. There are ways around most of the equipment that you think you need.

The main light in a studio setting is a key light, the second being the fill, as it fills in the shadows left by the key.

A fill light can be a separate light, but why spend the extra money? A reflective surface in the form of white foam boards or a dedicated reflector works perfectly.

Read here on how you can use a reflector instead of fill light.

A modifier is best described as an add-on to your studio lighting system. Studio lights are very plain tools until you add modifiers.

With these add-ons, you can diffuse the light, you can turn it into a very strong and intense spot for very precise lighting.

Any number of different lighting situations can come from a handful of these modifiers.

Read the article here on the different range and availability of these modifiers, and how to use them.

A softbox is a very handy lighting situation for studio photography. This is a studio strobe light with a reflective-lined opaque polyester or nylon.

This lighting solution provides a softened light to reach your subject. Otherwise, you can expect a harsh illumination.

A softbox should be the first thing you buy after obtaining a studio light. They’ll help your subjects appear more natural.

Portrait Phtography Lighting

Window light is a great way to add light to your subject. Not only is it free to use, but you can also harness it in many ways.

A diffuser can make it softer, and used with a reflector can create extra fill light. Just make sure you use it at the right time of day.

The one thing you’ll need to consider is using it alongside artificial lighting. Natural light tends to be warmer, so use an additional warm light source.

If you don’t, you’ll notice challenges when trying to colour correct it through white balance.

Ambient lighting allows you to capture atmospheric portraits. When we talk about this style of lighting, it is usually associated with natural light.

This is something that can’t be easily controlled. But, it can be manipulated using props, tools or flags.

Natural light is one of the most flattering forms of light. It is also easy to use. Using one studio light and a backdrop, also known as a colorama, is also a very simple choice.

The light should be just off of the camera, as it will give you complimentary shadows.

If you place the light slightly above the model, then the light will drop off. This is great for a transition on parts of the body that leaves the frame.

Soft lighting can be great for professional headshots. But, it isn’t great at adding that dramatic look you might be searching for.

Dramatic lighting adds mood, tension, and interest. Some of your portraits will call for this style.

This style is best achieved with a light source that can be manipulated and controlled. The use of snoots, flash modifiers and flats are very important.

Everything you need to know about low key lighting is here, in our article.

Butterfly lighting is achieved from using one light source, usually an artificial light, such as a speedlight.

Product Photography Lighting

Natural light is great for product shots, it is abundant, constant and free to use. A diffuser is needed to soften the light to allow it to fall upon the product evenly.

Reflectors create ‘fill light’ by bouncing the light back into the image.

It can be difficult to harness and control. You can learn to do so with a material, such as a white curtain. This softens the sun’s brightness.

Flags, which stop light, can keep sunlight from reaching certain parts of the product.

A studio is a great way to photograph a product as you have complete control over the setting and the light. This is by far the most expensive option as you will need to buy all the equipment yourself.

An alternative could be that you rent the studio, and have access to all the equipment. This may be cheaper, but still not cheap.
