Photo Shoot - Spotlighting

Had another photo session today. This time we tried hard, narrow and directional lighting to create harsh shadows. It looks like a spotlight. Done using a snoot. Created our own snoot by rolling cardboard over the flash's parabolic reflector. Desired effect was to light a portion of the picture, leaving the others dark.

People usually think that extremely soft and uniform lighting is "safe" lighting, cannot go wrong. But I would personally like to try something different and more creative. Noticed that most bridal studios usually use that sort of lighting and depend on make up artistry and hair styling to make the models look spectacular.

Here are some photos taken in the kitchen and on my desktop.
