Studio Lighting- Portrait

The first picture is the darkest one, I wanted to show that Angela was surround by a darkness, she was hopeless. I wanted to show that people at our ages are actually having a tough life, we have many pressure from school, family, future... A lot of people that I know are depressed, so I think it might be a serious problem. I used 2 studio lights in that picture, and I wanted to keep the shadow because I had watch a short video called " Depression is a Black Dog" , I want to the "Black Dog" have been shown as the shadow. The second picture is much more lighter, and on Angela's face, she still seems not really happy, but there was a light come towards to her, straight on her face, which represented there are hopes in her life, she just did not find them. The last picture is the final one of the story, I wanted to show that she find out there are way out and then she look up, she knows that her life was not easy but she still had to forward, she had choose to survive in this world. I used one studio lighting in this photo and two flash lights from phones to complete this photo.
