So I thought I would play with using a single light in my house because I was bored asked my son to pose for me.
Here is where we are shooting in the house down a hallway. I thought If I did this I could have the hall drop into shadow when the flash went off to make it look like a grayed out background.
Here is a shot straight out of the camera with on camera flash.
Then here is one in the same location with the flash off camera and I added a reflector to camera left to help soften the shadow and add light to the eyes.
It is fun to see what is possible with one light in a potentially bad lighting situation just for fun if you see other ways to improve the light please let me know. I know the pose if awful was just playing with the light here. I wanted to use only one light so I need to think of a way to get a little more light behind to separate him from the background he likes dark shirts go figure.
Thanks for looking
Sam
