As you progress with portrait lighting, you will need to consider how you approach each subject and plan to light them. Faces come in all shapes and sizes, from very slender and thin faces to full and round, and your approach for lighting needs to show them best. Generally with a thin or slender face you want to use a flatter more frontal light, such as the key light at 5:00 or 7:00 o’clock, depending on which side of the camera the key light is placed.
