Answer
I lean on a few go‑to moves to make faces look their best on camera:
- Key light height: I raise the key just above eye level, then angle it down slightly so it shapes the face instead of flattening it.
- Feathering the light: I don’t point the light straight at the face; I skim it past. That softens skin and creates natural cheekbones.
- Controlled shadows: I keep a little shadow on the far side of the face (not full-on flat beauty light) to add definition and dimension.
- Catchlights: I always position the light so there’s a clean catchlight in the eyes—they instantly look more alive.
Want me to break this down for natural light, ring lights, or softboxes specifically?
