Since photography is the art of light and shadow, how to deal with the shadow in photography?

The so-called photography is an instantaneous record of light and shadow.

There are only four ways to deal with shadows,

1, real shot, that is, shoot whatever you see.

2, dimming, using multiple light sources or scattered light sources, such as using reflective umbrellas, light boxes, sulfuric acid paper, etc. , can achieve this effect. If you need to further strengthen the effect, you can drag it away or supplement it in the opposite direction.

3, deepen, use point light source, single light source, reduce scattered light interference, such as using honeycomb.

4, manufacturing, photographers sometimes deliberately create shadows that are not common in life for the effect. This is special, for example, using a ring light to make a ring shadow behind the model.
