This shot was the product of wanting to make the most of the models hair with the lighting, but sadly not having anywhere near enough space to achieve the look I wanted.

And when I say not enough 'space', I can deal with not much room to shoot in with regards to width and depth, but when it comes to VERY low ceilings, things become very tricky indeed.....especially if you want to light hair from above like this.

Full Lighting Technique coming in next weeks -Technique Tuesday-
This week has simply flown by, so sadly I haven't had chance to put this technique article together just yet. Hopefully I'll get some time over the weekend to get this post started and finished though, and with a little luck it'll be ready to share on Tuesday 🍀

In a big studio there's no problem getting a hair light on a boom arm and swinging it over the subjects head. But in small spaces like home studios with ceilings as low as 240cm (less than 8ft), this becomes almost impossible. And even if you could squeeze a light up there, there's simply no way you can get that light far enough away to allow the light to spread over a large enough area on the subject like we see here.

Like I said, all will be revealed next Tuesday and I hope you like the clever little setup when it's revealed😎
