Equipment needed: •High performance reflector X 2 •750 watt light source X 2 •Orange colour gel •Pink colour gel •Canon 7D DSLR with triggers •15-85mm lens •White backdrop This lighting set up created a pretty, bright look to my photographs. The colours I was using created a nice variety of coloured highlights over my subject. Both colours are evenly evident. The lighting was flattering for my model and her skin tone. I like the fun, playful aspect that this coloured lighting combination created. Equipment needed: •High performance reflector X 2 •750 watt light source X 2 •Blue colour gel •Red colour gel •Canon 7D DSLR with triggers •15-85mm lens •White backdrop A much darker, more serious mood was created with this colour combination. As I knew the lighting would be much harsher and darker, I thought it would work better with a male model. The blue light casts the majority of the light but the red adds in a bright contrast of colour which I really like. It helps to change the mood of the image. It also works perfectly with my model. Equipment needed: •High performance reflector X 2 •750 watt light source X 2 •Yellow colour gel •Green colour gel •Canon 7D DSLR with triggers •15-85mm lens •White backdrop The end result from this colour gel choice was much less vibrant than the pink and orange. The lighting was more muted, but still very evident. I do not think that these colours worked as well as others due to the cool tones washing out my subject, and not being as flattering for her. However, due to her positioning, I like how the green almost works as the shadow for the yellow. Equipment needed: •High performance reflector X 2 •750 watt light source X 2 •Pink colour gel •Blue colour gel •Canon 7D DSLR with triggers •15-85mm lens •White backdrop I had found inspiration from this colour combination on Pinterest on a high fashion style image so wanted to test it out myself. These colours are very commonly used together for fashion photography. I liked the way that this turned out as it set a calming mood with the pink lights, and added a pop of blue for the highlights of the image.
