As always, fantastic content Karl and team! I'm so glad I found you and the Visual Education program. It is by far the best $$ I've spent on my photography career, and it's propelled my work exponentially faster than if I were trying to piece it all together from random youtube videos. I love this technique for hard/soft lighting

I learned this years back from Frank Cricchio. He coined it Porcelain light.
You really don't want to use this on a weathered face. It does work though, if your looking to dipict that hard facial features look. He did on medium and low key backgrounds. Nice highkey. Never tried it that way.
Great look, nice images!

Thanks, once again, for inspiring creativity. One quick question. I realize rules are meant to be broken. Can you elucidate your feelings on the shadow under the nose coming in contact with the upper lip? Just curious.

ایدهٔ ترکیب یک نور هارد با یک نور سافت، چیزی بود که قبلاً خودم در ترکیب نور إسپیدلایت با ریفلکتور، در نظر داشتم... مرسی 🙏👍❤️👏
