📸 Lighting Ice Cream for Food Photography 📸

To bring this ice cream composition to life, a classic two light setup can be used. The first light, also known as the key light, should be placed to the side of the subject (swipe left for more info). This light will illuminate the ice cream and enhance its texture and colors.
.
The second light, referred to as the fill light, should be positioned at the opposite side of the subject and sometimes (like in this case), slightly behind the subject. The fill light helps to reduce shadows, create a more balanced lighting effect, and possibly add some highlights that are key to creating depth.
.
It is important to adjust the intensity and distance of both lights to achieve the desired look.
.
The background can be kept relatively neutral and a shallow depth of filed can be used to draw even more attention to the subject.
.
By using this classic two light setup, the ice cream composition will be brought to life with depth, dimension, and (hopefully 😀) visual appeal.
