Mixed Lighting

This is a photo that I took for mixed lighting. I used the light coming in from the window and had Abby sit right beside it, and I used the dull florescent lights already on in the school. i wanted to use light coming in through the window because I like how it creates a warm glow compared to the light from the florescent lights. I was able to get Abby's face in the perfect light so that no shadows were too evident anywhere on her face and I wasn't reflected in the glass behind her. I also tried to make sure to take the photo at a random time while talking to her so that the photo would come out more genuine instead of having her do a fake uncomfortable smile. Also, I made sure to take the photo so that she was a little angled away from the camera so that it would create a relaxed feel instead of a posed studio shot. All in all, I think it creates a beautiful picture. Thanks Abs!
