An uncooperative subject

Still learning how to shoot in my new home studio. A few from this afternoon to hopefully make you smile.

I'm struggling with uneven lighting using only one back light. I might need to put some distance in there, or a second light.

I agree your lighning needs work. I am in the same situation. I also just use 1 light to light the background but doesn't work too well.

I did like the lighting on the 1st one the best of the 3 of them.

Some cool shots here.
The processing on the second one is a bit to contrasty for my taste but I find it interesting to say the least.
The first is probably the best lit of the three but the last one seems a bit overdone with the smoothing on her face.
A second light or dialing up the backdrop light would be good for high key
Fun stuff...keep shooting

What's your setup?

In this case I had the back light pointed to the background NOT the subject. I'm still learning, what can I say.

I figured you had light on the background. That's what you want for the hi-key blown-out look. I was curious exactly what you were using to light what.
