52 weeks of 2024/week 17 Loop Lighting
Loop lighting is a portrait lighting pattern where the subject is lit from about 45 degrees in front of them and above. This creates a nose shadow that 'loops' down at an angle onto their cheek. It is a slightly directional lighting pattern - the light is not flat, but the face is still mostly illuminated.

Theme of the Week: Loop Lighting: Shoot a portrait using loop lighting. If you don't have an off camera flash setup, get creative with how you light your subject
I didn't have a willing participant this week so I had to settle for my gnome.
I'll have to try to get a willing model for the next time I have to take a portrait.
The gnome didn't complain however.
So thankful for my beautiful sister-in-law who is always a willing and wonderful model, but even more thankful for all the laughs we have.
Technical: Loop Lighting (cc always welcome & appreciated)

Lens: Voigtländer Nokton 50mm f/1.2 Aspherical.
Yet another self-portrait. Taken with off-camera flash off to my right hand side and using tethered capture in Lightroom so I could see what I was doing.
My photograph for Week 17 of the Dogwood 52 Week Photography challenge.
This week's brief was to shoot a portrait using loop lighting.

I would like you all to meet the newest woman in my life. Her name is Greta and she will be working with me while I learn the effects of different lighting techniques used for portraits.
Awhile back I developed an interest in Off Camera Flash and decided to pursue it to see how much I might enjoy broadening my horizons. To that end, I took a class in off camera flash using strictly strobe lighting, which from my standpoint means multiple flash guns behind umbrella's, soft boxes, reflectors and other light modifiers.
I enjoyed that class so much that I am now in the middle of a 4 week course in studio lighting with the emphasis on various lighting techniques using a variety of equipment.
I got Greta so I could practice these various techniques in the comforts of home. The nicest thing about Greta is she doesn't talk back.... =)
I will be posting a few different images of her as time passes. I hope you enjoy them, and if you don't just skip me - you can't hurt my feelings. Not much anyway.... =)
Needs to be viewed LARGE or ORIGINAL if you have time... thanks....
Canon 7D
Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
Manual mode - SOOC
ISO 400 1/80 f/4 73MM
EX580II Key light above left 45 degrees through white umbrella (Camera right)
EX430 Fill light diffused 8 ft away 180 degree bounce.
This one is a pretty good one I guess... I used the 100mm macro lens for this as it is a faster lens than the kit lens I have. I am limited in space though, so I have to stand in the corner to shoot. I am learning; it's a little overexposed on her forehead, but I have found that the pictures look hot in the preview on the camera but when I put the RAW file into Affinity Photo, I can compensate for it mostly, so in the future, I will experiment with f2.8 perhaps or something. I had one light plus a bounce light for this one. I developed in Affinity Photo.
This is Greta in a studious mood..
This lighting style is Paramount Lighting (sometimes called beauty lighting) with Greta's face being exposed from the front and above creating the butterfly shadow under the nose. This style is a very common when lighting women.. This was taken with camera at 90 degrees right from the lighting..
The reason I'm showing the settings is for a couple of groups that require this information.

One strobe Loop Lighting setting.
Excited to try out my new studio set up with a Flash Point Evolve 200 pro: light , compact, wireless. Quick repetitive dependable flash. What a difference!!! Definitely check it out.
Dogwood challenge. Week 17. Loop lighting. I have no off camera flash or a model. So this was the best model I had.
I couldn't decide on which one I like best, so I post them both... I am trying to learn lighting and portraiture. I thought this was the rembrandt setup, but it turned out more like a loop light so there it is...

Dogwood 52/17 ~ Loop Lighting
In the absence of a willing model..... I had to make do with a self portrait ;)
lots more africa to post, but for my flickr friends who may have thought i've become a full-time travel and wildlife photographer, here's a pic from a test shoot this past weekend with wilhemina model katie c.
i've been intriqued with a notion of "effortless beauty". so i asked katie to show up with minimal makeup and pose for some simple, one-light headshots. i don't know where this pose came from - it shouldn't work at all really. there aren't many models who could pull this off.
Lighting: AB800 w/22" diffused beauty dish boom-mounted high camera right in "loop" position. white bounce reflector low camera left.
El es Matt, un amigo de la escuela y colega fotógrafo.
No estoy tan acostumbrado a fotografiar hombres pero las clases en el estudio de NSCC me han brindado la confianza y la oportunidad de practicar este tipo de retratos

Continuing to work on black and white portraits, this time with harder light, and a posing table. Finding the right thing to do with hands can be tough, but I got a chance to experiment with different looks.
