Getting to grips with artificial lighting seems to be quite the headache for many photographers. What I found aided more rapid improvement was gaining a better understanding of lighting positions and ratios. In this article, I'm going to be addressing the latter (though it does involve a little of the former, as they can interact). I'm going to start from scratch, looking first at what key and fill lights are, then I'll move on to how they relate to each other and why it makes a difference as to where they're positioned. Then we'll see how these concepts apply to the ideas of "high key" and "low key" lighting, as well as adding other lights into the mix.
In technical terms, an inverse-square law is defined as "any physical law stating that some physical quantity or strength is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source of that physical quantity." With a definition like that, you're probably wondering what on earth this could possibly have to do with photography (and no one could blame you). Inverse-square laws apply to many, many things in the world. In this tutorial, however, we're only going to be looking at one of them: light.
In this tutorial, we will talk about shooting high quality, lit portraits with only one strobe or flash. Maybe your budget doesn't allow you to purchase multiple lights for portraits.

Here, you will find 10 clearly explained examples in this tutorial that you can apply to your own situations.

In this tutorial, we're going to learn about tweaking your images with exposure and flash compensation. How does a camera know what settings to use for a photo? Even when you're in manual mode, the "bar" in the viewfinder of your SLR is going to show you how it feels about your settings in relation to the amount of light it perceives is in the frame.
Polarization filters are specially adapted glass that, when turned at an angle to a light source, will reduce glare from reflected surfaces. The most popular type of polarizing filter is circular to fit easily on the end of almost any lens, containing a free spinning element for quick adjustment. In this article we'll take a look at how a polarizing filter can improve a number of photographic scenes, along with a few unexpected results it can have. While these filters will darken images by about one stop, the effect rendered in ideal conditions is dramatic. Costing anywhere from $30 to $200 the filters are more effective at producing sharp contrast between clouds and sky, or removing reflection from water and glass, than the time spent in post-production software.

When it comes to editing photographs in OS X, I'm sure you'll agree with me in saying that Mac users are quite spoiled for choice.

In this tutorial, we're going to be focusing on Aperture, Apple's own photo editor designed for the more professional user. Or is it? Yes, it's priced towards the professional end of the market.
