Here is the foot picture I was talking about! 

Lighting Positions

Three- Pint Lighting

• The Key Light – This is the main light used on your subject
• The Fill Light – The purpose of this light is to fill in the shadows created by the key light, preventing them from getting too dark.
• The Back Light – This is used to separate the subject from the background.

\

Silhouette 

• outline subject
• place light behind the subject

Split Light

• single light source placed 90 degrees offset from the subject and a bit higher than eye level, 
• Lighting one half of the face, and leaving the other in shadow

Loop Lighting 

• Loop lighting is made by creating a small shadow of the subjects noses on their cheeks. 
• To create loop lighting, the light source must be slightly higher than eye level and about 30-45 degrees from the camera 

Broad Lighting 

• Broad lighting is when the subject’s face is slightly turned away from centre, and the side of the face which is toward the camera (is broader) is in the light. 
• used for “high key” portraits
• makes a person’s face look broader or wider

Short Light

• short lighting puts the side turned towards the camera (that which appears larger) in more shadow.
• used for low key, or darker portraits
• the face is turned towards the light source this time

Rembrant Lighting

• identified by the triangle of light on the cheek
• more dramatic, so like split lighting it creates more mood and a darker feel to your image

Butterfly Light

• butterfly shaped shadow that is created under the nose by placing the main light source above and directly behind the camera. 
• shooting underneath the light source
• glamour style shots and to create shadows under the cheeks and chin.
