Shadow Photography Inspiration From ShootDotEdit Customers
Noted photographer Ted Grant had once said, “Always shoot from the shadow side.” While that might be a bit too over the top, we definitely agree that shadow has its own part to play in photography. Just as light brings a photo to life, similarly darkness could be equally compelling. The hint of mystery that shadow lends to a photograph can turn a simple composition into a captivating image. The outline of a shadow, its distance from the camera, its angle, size, and intensity all work in unison in giving you the best results for your shadow photography. Shadows can be used to add contrast, a sense of balance, or dimensionality to images. They can also be used as subtle details in images, as well as by casting shadows on your subjects, you can also change their appearance. Now, if you’re excited about shadow photography and need some inspiration to ace this particular style, this blog features some stunning images taken by ShootDotEdit customers that explore the beauty of this genre of photography.
