Chapter Three. The Logic of Light > The Subject Determines the Light

The Subject Determines the Light

“Light speaks, just like language. You can make someone look like an angel, or the devil.”

Do the math. You’re not going to light the grandmother of the year for an article in the hometown Daily Astonisher with a ring light.[1] It doesn’t matter if you just got the ring light from B&H and you’re dying to use it.

[1] Ring Light: A circular light source that wraps around the barrel of the lens. Produces a hard, shadowless light. Very popular with fashion photogs.
