Hi I am a beginner photographer, but at the same time pretty knowledgeable about cameras etc but i'm not so educated in the lighting side of things.
Although I know the basics, I need help with an upcoming situation.
So I am wanting to do a photoshoot at a harbour at night time, so there will be lights, boats etc in the background of the image.. I wanted my subject to be leaned up against a railing facing toward the camera with the harbour in the background. I was wondering how I could light this situation, what sort of lighting I would need to purchase, as currently I have none. I was thinking a ring light, as I like the effect it gives to the subjects eyes and the light it produces but then again I am not a professional when it comes to lighting. So what would you recommend I purchase and where I place the lighting and equipment to produce a well lit subject?
