This is a very simple solution if you are photographing still subject indoor using only one source of light and wanted to enchance your result.
Like this example, you can see the figure face covered in shadow.
Next photo is the result after using a small mirror to reflect the source light to subject face. Be careful not to concentrate too much reflection, else only certain spot is highlighted and the end result will looks unnatural.
Here is side by side crop on the subject face.
For a more detailed explanation do check out this very useful video from prophotolife.com : episode 18, tabletop photography all done with mirrors.
Awesome, thanks for taking the time to take these shots and post them up on an info blog like this, I understand how hard that can be. The mirror idea is a great idea, you made the shot look really natural… thanks again!
Thank you.
