Let’s talk lighting and diffusion! 💡 In this post i wanted to show you how you can get different looks just by moving your diffusion closer or further from your subject (you can use a professional diffusion material or just a semi-transparent tracing paper). Let's take a look at those photos: 1. Diffusion is closer to light source than to my subject. You can see that it gives what i would call a ‘semi-hard’ light - specular highlights are still visible but shadows are way less defined, more soft than without using a diffusion. 2. Diffusion halfway between my subject and light source. It gives a beautiful, soft light. 3. Diffusion placed very close to my subject, far from light source. The light here is super soft and diffused. Less contrast. 4. No diffusion. Typical hard light. Specular highlights are very visible, shadows have hard edges, high contrast. I hope you can understand what i mean, but if you want me to discuss this topic more, or illustrate this examples with lighting setup sketches, let me know! I could do a tutorial reel for you. If you have any questions - just leave a comment or send me a DM. English is not my mother tongue so I’m not sure if everything is clear here 😅 [pictured: @larocheposay Lipikar Body Lotion __________ #photographytips #photographytipsandtricks #photographytutorial #phototutorial #softlight #hardlight #diffusion #photographylighting #photolighting #creativeproductphotography #photographylessons #photographytricks #productphotographer #productphoto #cosmeticsphotography #cosmeticsphotographer #beautycontentcreator #igskincare #textureshot #texturetuesday #texturetuesdays #skincaretexture
