The primary source of subject illumination is usually called the main or key light. Although additional lights may be added to enhance a portrait, key lighting is usually performed independently. 

Only one trait controls the appearance of light on a subject; its distribution. 
For a given light source, we can separate this out into two more easily manageable characteristics; direction, which controls the location of shadows and highlights on the subject, and apparent size, which controls the appearance of these shadows and highlights.

Although too much of anything can be harmful, portraits usually benefit from softer lighting. Light size doesn't just control the appearance of large-scale tones; it also determines the visibility of fine-scale texture. Pores, blemishes, wrinkles and other facial details all become more pronounced with hard light. Hard light also increases the likelihood of harsh direct reflections off a subject's skin.]]> 2017-11-20 13:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/208683246 kb01192 https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211364749 Candid 1]]> 2017-11-29 13:11:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211364749 kb01192 https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211365023 Candid 2]]> 2017-11-29 13:11:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211365023 kb01192 https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211366111 2017-11-29 13:14:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/211366111 kb01192 https://padlet.com/kb01192/blog/wish/212245023 Still Life 1 - Image That Conveys Symbolic Meaning
