Light from different angles

/
One rule most people will agree upon is that light from below is often not something we use in our photography, unless of course you want that freaky horror look, I actually always call this lighting "halloween lighting". But one light setup I also don't see a lot of people use, but which is one of my favorite ones, is the light from above.

WOW that shines like crazy

Reflective material is a great way to spice up your photoshoot. You can use it as a set, backdrop or even wrap it around your model. but today we are using it in a set with some colors and hard light hitting it to get a beautiful glow in the material.

Cheap can be more fun than you think

"my lens is cheap", "I have an old camera", "I only have one strobe" etc. In all honesty, of course gear is important but you can create awesome art/photos etc. with your phone nowadays. My moto over the year has been "if people look at the quality of the pixels the image is not strong enough" that doesn't mean you can just "wing" it and don't care about your gear, but it shouldn't be the main focus.
