This can help to add drama with silouettes 4- Rim lighting – This produces a light glowing outline around your subject 5- Key light – The main light source, and it’s not necessarily always the brightest light source 6- Fill light – This is used to fill in the shadows and provide detail that would otherwise be blackness 7- Cross lighting – Using two lights placed opposite from each other to light two subjects
