Does lighting direction matter?

When creating spring images, pay attention to the direction of light. This will help you play around with the vibrancy of colors and also the shadows and textures that add to its impact.

Here’s an excerpt from one of our lighting articles:

“The direction of light falling on your subject plays a pivotal role in shaping shadows and highlights. Front lighting, originating from behind the camera, results in minimal shadows and offers uniform illumination. On the other hand, side lighting, which emanates from the side of the subject, elevates textures and adds depth to your photographs. If you opt for backlighting, where the light source is positioned behind the subject, you can achieve captivating silhouettes for a dramatic touch.”
