Michael Taylor - Fighting for Canon

Michael Taylor - Fighting for Canon

When I started studio photography I was fascinated with the catchlights in the eyes of models. I’d have my face pressed up against posters in department stores working out whether the photographer used a beauty dish, a parabolic, or clamshell lighting. Recently I’ve been looking at rim lighting, which is why I was standing staring at the Harry Potter posters as I left the cinema. Rim lighting can be used to accentuate form, which is why it really worked with the shots of Michael.
