All you need to know about loop lighting photography - a useful basic studio lighting setup that all photographers need to have in their repertoire!
In this video we are going to explore a technique called split lighting, which is one of the best lighting arrangements for flattering portraits with a cinematic look. We are going to give you a tutorial in which we will cover everything about this basic studio lighting setup, from the positions to the equipment, as well as a bonus DIY hack that will allow you to get this great look on a budget. With the use of examples and an easy-to-understand diagram, we will demonstrate how you can take this technique from a simple and easy setup with just one flash, all the way to a powerful version of three point lighting.

Nice video,thought you said one light is all that’s is needed for a loop light later on you went using 3 lights when the subject wasn’t comfortable with holding the reflector board

well spotted. Yes, we ended up incorporating a couple additional lights. However, the Loop light itself was created by one light. The other two were there to provide a bit of background separation (dark hair against a dark background can be trouble) and to pop a little bit of fill-light into the subject's face (when the reflector board became a nuisance). It's still worth practicing the Loop light with one single light source, just to master the positioning of the light - which is the most crucial part of the recipe. I hope that helps! Thanks for your comment!
