white balance
The article on white balance explains that white balance is very important for neutralizing color casts in photos caused by different light sources, ensuring that images appear natural, much like the human eye sees them. It covers the importance of adjusting white balance to correct color temperature and tint, offering two main methods: in-camera settings and post-processing adjustments. Various camera presets (like Tungsten, Flash, or Cloudy) are mentioned for quick adjustments depending on the light source, while manual adjustments via Kelvin values or a gray card can provide precise control
White Balance Settings:
- Auto: The camera automatically adjusts based on the lighting conditions.
- Daylight: Best for shooting in direct sunlight to keep the image neutral.
- Cloudy: Warmer tones to counteract cool light on overcast days.
- Tungsten: Cools down images taken under indoor incandescent light.
- Fluorescent: Compensates for the greenish tint of fluorescent lighting.
- Flash: Adjusts for the color temperature of a flash, giving a natural look.
- Custom: Allows for precise adjustments using a Kelvin scale or a gray card.

studio portrait







This subject has a cyan light in the background. She has a shocked and both calm facial expressions which help understand her mood. I really like the pose she decided to do in this image, it goes with her facial expression. The lighting in all of these shots have good exposure in certain parts like the cyan and has a good amount of contrast. The cyan in the back helps her skin pop and her dress even more reflective. I also really the eye makeup as it stands out with her hair.
