Honest and Dishonest Portraits




Honest Portrait:  The light source is set up above the model with a white diffusion paper infront of it. The angel of the light created a shadow side on the model's face. So a white reflector is place on the left side to fill the shadow that's being casted. 


Dishonest Portrait:  The light source is right under the model with a diffusion paper over it. It created a softer contrast of shadow reflected on her face. 




Honest Portrait:  The light source is again up above the model's head with white diffusion infront of it.  This time the model is facing away from the light source, so the white reflector is held very close to her face to bounce off the light to fill the shadow.


Dishonest Portrait: The model is standing close behind a white wall and light source is is on the ground level placed slightly on the right without a diffusion paper.  It creates a sharp contrast of shadow and background.
