Angel’s Halo

An in-class activity with lighting

Sophia, the angel of our group

Rim lighting is one of my favorite lighting effects, and who better to test this lighting set up than with Sophia and her adorable blonde pixie haircut. Real life situations where I enjoy using this lighting effect is often when I’m walking around my neighborhood taking foliage shots. Particular flowers have a light fuzz around its stem and petals, so when those are highlighted by the sun that is just setting, it creates a really awesome photograph.
