Can you explain backlighting?

Backlighting occurs when the light source is behind the subject, creating a silhouette effect. It can add drama and depth to your photos.

What equipment do I need for using reflectors?

For using reflectors, you typically need a reflector (which can be collapsible or a simple white board) and a light source. A friend to help hold it can also be useful!

How does natural light differ from artificial light?

Natural light comes from the sun and changes throughout the day, while artificial light is man-made and can be controlled for consistency.

What are some tips for shooting in low light conditions?

In low light, try using a wider aperture, increasing the ISO, and using a tripod to stabilize your camera for clearer shots.
