10 great photography lighting tips by Bob Holmes:


  1. Shadows- Don’t think you can always fix the shadows in post-production. Sometimes it will create noise in the photograph
  2. Utilize/combine light sources. Example: Mix the blue light from the sky next to tungsten lights on buildings or street lamps. (Timing is critical)
  3. Flash Photography- Bob says he doesn’t like how harsh the small flash is on cameras, so he avoids using it. He will occasionally use the flash to put a “catch-light” in people’s eyes.
  4. Internal Light- The only light source in the photograph comes from within the frame
  5. Portraits- Not always about the face
  6. Look at everything you shoot as broadly as possible
  7. Think. Shoot Intelligently. Look at every angle.
  8. Work a subject
  9. Learn to look at light
  10. Learn how your camera records light

Practice. Practice. Practice.
