I wanted to create a spot light effect in my photos, I came to this conclusion by researching different make-up pictures on Pinterest. I asked Carl if he could help me create the look i wanted and showed him some examples in pictures see reference lighting inspiration photos. He re-arranged the lighting and attached a piece of black cardboard hovering over the spot light he also used reflectors so the light would bounce onto the face. Here is an example of a lighting plan that was is similar set up.
