Karl Taylor Photography – A Guide to Lighting Emotion

Light is a powerful tool when it comes to evoking emotion – which is why it’s absolutely crucial to not only understand how to use light, but when and why. To help you understand the importance of lighting emotion, Karl has dedicated an entire show to exploring this topic.

He reviews a number of his images, going into detail about how he lit certain shots, why he lit them that way and why he chose that particular narrative. He also explains how the content, narrative, aesthetic, light and shadow, colour, three dimensionality and post-production techniques can all be used to invoke emotion.

This insightful show is a must-watch for anyone wanting to understand how light and narrative can help set your images apart.
