Studio Portrait Photography

 In the lesson today we took portrait photos of our whole class and our individual groups that we're working in for the newsletter. We used three point lighting, and we had a key light, which is the main source of light, a fill light, which takes away and shadows and gives you a white background, and a hair light but we didn't really use it. We also had a white backdrop on a frame.
There were some health and safety hazards in the lesson, for example we had a trip hazard because the cables from the lights were trailing on the floor. The lights themselves were really bright and can get really hot as well.
