This photo was shot in Downtown, Vancouver. At first, I wanna exaggerate the shade on the ground, but then I realized that the overall tone of the picture is really dark. I needed a subject that can light up the whole picture and be the main focus. Then i came across these benches with orange coloured umbrellas. Orange and blue are contrasting colours which means they are the direct opposite of each other on the colour spectrum. Contrasting colours can results in high exaggeration, and that's exactly what I need. There is the shot and the process.
This is my first time setting up equipments for low key portraits. Me and my friends did this butterfly setup after watching a video from YouTube. Low key lighting is a style of lighting that has an emphasis on shadows.
